    Family and I will pray for Ross.  Situations like this are a parents worst nightmare.

    Ross is in our thoughts. 

    You're right John. Other peoples kids are like our own when you are involved with their lives.  Really scary stuff. That young man had a long hard road ahead of him.

    I'll be perfectly honest, I do not pray enough, but something of this magnitude comes up I make it a point to.

    Let us know what the update is.

    I have an update on Ross. I just talked with his sister and she said he is better today and talking some! I verified that his only injuries are to his vertebrae and his small intestine. He does not have broken legs so I am thankful for that.

    I asked how long they thought he would be in the hospital, and she said they were told that in 7 to 10 days they would let them know what they thought at that time.

    I guess that means they will see how he does over the next week or so and then make a decision.

    I want to thank ALL of you once again for your prayers and well wishes. I told her that I had a lot of guys praying for him and her entire family. I could tell it meant a lot to her.  

    You guys are great.

    Many prayers man! I did not read all the comments here but I will say that the fact that I had to get to the second page to offer my condolences again goes to show what this forum is capable of. Despite threads like Devastated (man that was fun and awful!) this forum is full of love for our fellow Egghead brethren. Best wishes, prayers, and speedy recovery to the young man!

    Prayers sent, and my wife and I will pray later this evening, as well. (Where two or more are gathered……) Also prayed for your son and your family in this time of tragedy and concern. Very sad anytime a young person is injured seriously.
