Mornin', everybody ! :O)

Sorry for no graphics. I'm still at my Dad's house. I'm taking him to a doctors appt. today in Tyler. It's his new hand doctor. He had skin graft surgery on his hand/arm and the surgeon said he needed it looked at again in about 10 days or so. It looks like he'll keep most of his mobility/motion in his left hand, but he's lucky because it was pretty ugly looking. Anyway......

We got his pictures back yesterday. Picture #24 & 25 here are of his car when I went to get his personal stuff out of it. This is where it was towed to in Flagler, Colorado.

Frame #24 & #25

Hard for me to imagine he walked away from this. He had to crawl out the drivers side window. None of the doors would open. All the glass was busted out except the front windshield, and, as you can see, it was shattered too.....

To: MeeknMing; everyone
Psalm 121 says

I lift up my eyes to the hills--
where does my help come from?


My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.


He will not let your foot slip--
he who watches over you will not slumber;


indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.


The LORD watches over you--
the LORD is your shade at your right hand;


the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.


The LORD will keep you from all harm--
he will watch over your life;


the LORD will watch over your coming
and going both now and forevermore.

Good Morning Meekie! How awful to actually see the damage and try to imagine anyone coming out of it alive.

But for the Grace of God.....

May God continue to Bless you, your Dad and your family. This was truly a miracle.

Will continue to keep all of you in my prayers.

The pictures are proof that God had your father in his arms. It seems impossible that he was able to walk after crawling out of that mess.
Thanks for sharing the pictures with us.

Thanks for the update on your Dad and the link to the photos. Praise be to God that he survived that accident. And how fortunate he is to have a loving son by his side as he recovers.

Know you were glad you didn't see the car before seeing your dad. It is chilling, to see what can happen so quickly.
