Life Changes Fast!

 Sunday Morning My Husband's Father fell off his front porch under the big window facing the house. He sneaked out when he wasn't suppose to, and went to pick some grapes on the south side of the house, He probably lost his balance, and fell back. When Doug came up stairs to fix his breakfast, the front door was open with the cane holding the door open, and Doug found his father lying on his side towards the house under the big window, picked him up, and called the ambulance.


Found out he had a fractured neck, a broken neck. He had surgery Monday and everything went well, Tuesday evening he had a hard time breathing, and they had to put a ventilator on him. Today they took the ventilator off, and he is breathing on his own now. (Doug and his brother's wife in picture with dad.)

Doug just talked to him on the phone, and he wanted to go the Karaoke at the eagles. A Friend of his from the eagles came and seen him at the hospital. He wanted to get up and go with them. But he is improving, glad for that.



Life will change for all of us now. Doug sure does miss his dad, he was staying with him in his home for over a year now, and He feels weird without his dad. He feels he lost his right arm or something. Doug's dad will probably go to a nursing home for therapy for a while until he is strong enough to go back home, where Doug can take care of him again, but things may change again, but we have to have hope for the better now, it is starting to look up now.



Lots of prayers are helping out! Thanks!
