Arrowhead (John) fell off a 20 ladder at work, onto his head, and has a severe brain injury!
Broke all the bones in his face and skull, broke his shoulder blade and some ribs.
His last post was 10/20 in the morning. He fell about 2pm that same day and was LifeFlighted to the hospital; then, after about 6 hours of surgery, he went directly to ICU. It was touch and go for days in critical condition.
After 2 weeks in ICU he has been transferred to a Specialty Neurological Rehab center in Austin, as of 11/3.
He can move his arms and legs, so no spinal injury, but he is not cognizant. Sometimes he can respond to can you squeeze my hand?, sometimes not. His daughter is getting ready to go back home.
The nurses are calling them every day. Small improvements are noticed, such as he sat up for 10 seconds today, but no one has a prognosis. Brain injuries heal how they heal, when the heal, if they heal....3 to 6 months at least.
PRAY HARD, please!!!! And spread the word to your prayer lists.
Prayers on the way!
Prayers for Arrowhead and his loved ones.
Oh, my. Prayers being sent.
hussein also has eligibility problems and don’t forget his deep hatered of America and all she stands for. Then there’s his wife with her, “All this for a damned flag.”
Please do - and see if his family needs anything

My local Gideon Camp has a prayer meeting every Saturday morning here in central FL. We lifted John up in prayers from 7-7:30 this morning.
Thank you for the ping.
I’m sure his family would appreciate that - thank you
Prayers for Arrowhead and his complete recovery.
Prayers up!
I just got lost for a half-hour on your profile page.
I am not complaining.
God bless you, sir.
Prayers up.
Thanks, feel free to use anything there, most is hosted on my server, and sorry for dead links from years ago.
Prayers up for Arrowhead1952 for a complete recovery.
Thank you very much.
I have some dead links on my profile as well. Had to take some photos down to stop from getting harassed. I think JimRob, The Great Cat, zotted them all, though.
Sorry to hear of this-Prayers being said for him to be completely healed and restored. Prayers also for he and his family for comfort as they go through the healing process. Lord hear our prayers.
Adding my prayers for your complete recovery, dearest Arrowhead1952.
Lord, hear our prayers.
My sincerest prayers for a recovery soon.
