No, they were together.

More details now that I'm a bit calmer...

They called 911. It took the paramedics, etc. 17 minutes to arrive. Then, the emergency rooms at the closest hospital were full, and it took another 10 minutes to get to the hospital where he is now.

That hospital's ER was almost as full, but they couldn't go further - the next one was probably just as full, anyway.

She is spending the night there. He was still in surgery 30 minutes ago.

She's being told that he has lost a huge amount of blood, but the saving grace is that, strangely enough, he has 2 arteries there instead of one as usual. Had he only had one, he wouldn't have made it.

Lord God, You are the God of all knowledge who ever watches over Your Children. We pray Your hand of wisdom and knowledge be upon the entire medical staff who have onyx's husband care in their hands. Enlighten them beyond their own ability; and we pray this boldly because we know that You care for us, and that You have all healing in Your hands. Strengthen onyx and her husband and and enable his loved ones to trust as they place him in Your loving hands.

Thank you Father for your care and love..in Jesus name I pray.

Oh, wow. Miraculous.

My prayers are with you and your husband, onyx, for his full recovery.
