Ok here's some good news. Richard(aka my brother) will likely recover from his accident. He is speaking a little at a time. Sometimes it's incoherent being as drained and disoriented as he is. He wanted me to thank you guys for the support after I told him about the responses of hopes and prayers. I want to thank you guys too for the words to keep me sane. Living with my brother in the hospital has left me at home alone. Tending to his things has been a real chore. We're roomies.

The bad news is that he's going to be paralyzed for a while. Some scans were done after he indicated there was no feeling from the waist down. Thankfully because the spine was not pinched this condition is only temporary. The docs guess sometime next week he should have more feeling and possibly be able to leave the bed. It will be close to the end of the month before he'll be allowed to leave for home.

Thanks guys.
Ron.
