Requesting Prayers For My Son David - He was Assaulted Today And Is Hospital With Concussion

14May2013 | Self

I received a call from a local hospital shortly after 3:00 p.m. informing me that my son David had been beaten up and brought there by ambulance. They were performing X-rays and CT scans. It appears that he suffered a concussion. My wife is at the hospital and I will be following her there in the next few minutes.

Nos prières à Dieu augmentent pour David et sa famille.
(Our Prayers to God increase for David and his family.)

Notre Père qui es aux cieux,
Que ton Nom soit sanctifié, que ton règne vienne,
Que ta volonté soit faite sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donne-nous aujourd'hui notre pain de ce jour.
Pardonne-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi à ceux qui nous ont offensés.
Et ne nous soumets pas à la tentation, mais délivre-nous du mal.
Car c’est à Toi qu’appartiennent le règne, la puissance et la gloire,
pour les siècles des siècles. Amen

Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces,
le Seigneur est avec vous, vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant, et à l'heure de notre mort. Ainsi-soit-il.

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

I just saw this thread and was pleased to hear that David is going to be OK. May I ask how old he is?

My prayers will not only be for his continued healing and well-being, but that justice will be done. So hard to believe that this is going on in our beloved country — and that we have to hope and pray for justice!

Prayers for David, and for you and your wife.

May he heal physically and emotionally very quickly.

Thinking of you always.

[ConorMacNessa]

Thank you so much for your prayers - David is 19. He has had considerable adversity in his life. At five years of age he was diagnosed with a soft tissue cancer (rhabdomyosarcoma) above his left eye.

Mrs. MacNessa and I stood with him during a year of weekly chemo, through six weeks of daily radiation treatments, several inpatient hospitalizations for line infections and a C. difficile infection. We almost lost him then - his pre-cancer weight was 40 lbs. - by the time of the C. diff infection he was below 28 lbs.

There have been sequellae - as a result of the Rad treatment he developed a cataract in his left eye and underwent lens replacement surgery - successful - at age 12. He continues to have other late effects.

We are very proud of him and most concerned for his future at the same time. We pray daily for him along with many other causes dear to us.

Deo Volente!

Thanks for the update, prayers for a quick recovery.

[PennsylvaniaMom]

Prayers for you and your family FRiend!!! Glad to see your update that his concussion is mild. Hoping/praying that all injuries heal quickly & perp does time.

If the hospital refers you to any sort of concussion care program I would advise you to participate. My youngest had a “moderate” sports related concussion and went into a CC program. They had protocols for all symptom of recovery and it really helped alot. The brain needs to “turn off” to rest to heal.

Hugs, PM

Your son is in my prayers, my friend. I am so terribly sorry this has happened to your family.

Almighty Father, creator of all that is, please heal Conor’s son David and make him whole, as is Your will. I ask this in the Name of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, Amen.
