Author Topic: Prayers for My Older Brother (Read 1318 times)

Please pray/send good vibes for my older brother. Last night he was coming home from work and was 2 minutes away from his house when a driver came out of nowhere and T-boned him in the driver's side.

He doesn't remember what happened and says that he remembers driving home and then waking up in the hospital. He sustained a fractured pelvis, rib, ankle, wrist, leg, and a vertebra in his neck. He'll be wearing a brace for 6 weeks for the last one. He's at the ICU and is going into surgery for his pelvis later tonight. We think he has a concussion and that has caused problems with his short term memory (he's been repeating questions).

Anything would be appreciated.

Sorry about your brother. May he be blessed with healing and recovery.

UPDATE: He is doing fine. He's a lot more coherent now. Visited him in the hospital yesterday afternoon. It's going to be a long recovery but I think he'll be alright. I won't be surprised if he goes to rehab due to his pelvis injury. I know he'll definitely need PT. The surgery went well but we are awaiting more details on the driver that hit him. Some stupid lady in her Lexus SUV. She wasn't hurt at all.

Thank you SunflowerP and Demophon for your prayers and good vibes.
