Allen West, the former Florida congressman and recent candidate to chair the Texas Republican Party, was injured in a motorcycle accident just outside Waco on Saturday, according to numerous posts on social media. Please pray for Allen West," Dr. Angela Graham-West, his wife, posted on Facebook early Saturday evening. She wrote that he was in the emergency room after his motorcycle was hit outside Waco. On my way to hospital now.
An update on Wests Facebook page Sunday morning said he was recovering and in stable condition. The crash left him with a concussion, several fractured bones and multiple lacerations.
I am alive by the grace of God, West said in a statement Sunday morning.

The crash left him with a concussion, several fractured bones and multiple lacerations. Thank God he is still alive.
But, with these injuries he is not out of the woods, yet.

This is very good news! I woke up at 1:30am and checked FR just to see if there was an update on his condition (there was not). Sounds like he’ll be fine, though recovery might take some time. He’s no spring chicken.

Hes too old to be riding. Not really. He is the average age of a motorcycle rider in the US. Its all old people. Millennials don't ride.

Yep, sooner or later. Ride long enough and you will be getting reconstruction surgery, bank it. It’s a great feeling until it’s not.

Thank God!
I’ve been praying for him since last night.
And, of course, will continue to do so.

This, indeed, is wonderful news. Motorcycle accident victims often end up with catastrophic head injuries with subsequent severe mental and physical impairment. Thank God this was not the case, here!
