My number is up...

After 2 years and 25k miles on my trusty steed karma pulled my number last sunday.

i was slowing to negotiate a left hand turn off of a 2 lane road and was struck from behind by a young teen driver traveing appxox 65mph (in a 45). My speed was approximately 15mph and slowing, hyper lights going.

Long story short, i'm now parapalegic. T12 and L1 were crushed along with the spinal cord in the middle.

I'm heading to surgery today to fuse and reconstruct the physical support mechanism i need to at least be able to sit up in a wheelchair.

I believe in the power of prayer and would considerate it a great honor to be included in any prayers over the next few days.

Cheers,
Dale

Holy smokes! You have what ever you need from me

I haven't prayed in a long time. I just said one for you.

You seem to be doing a good job of keeping your chin up. I'll be praying that you can continue to do so.

Wow. I'm at a loss for words. Good luck, I'll say a prayer.
