Please pray for my nephew

Posted on 08/01/2015 11:00:57 AM PDT by Raebie

My nephew, Garrett, was injured in a diving accident on Tuesday. He sustained a c5 spinal cord injury and is paralyzed from the shoulders down. He just turned 17 in June.

Any thoughts, prayers or advice on how to help navigate this nightmare would be so appreciated. Thanks - Rae

As for advice, I don’t have any. What you are doing, asking for prayers, is the best thing you can do.

Is there any hope that the paralysis will not be permanent?

Would it be OK if this were moved to the Religion Forum? We have a lot of prayer list warriors who hang out over there.

Prayers up.

BTW, they are finally making some real advances in spinal cord repair.

Prayers for your nephew. Is this the same injury that Dr. Charles Krauthammer suffered? I believe he has written about his life changing injury.
