Prayers Needed....

Yesterday afternoon about 4:00pm, my son in law's father was on the roof of his tractor shed.  As he started to come down the ladder, it fell, with him on it.  Broke both wrists/arms, and cracked a vertebrae in his back.  My 12 yr old grandson was there, and saw him fall, called his dad, and Brian called his nephew to go check.  Of course, Bobby didn't want an ambulance, or to go to hospital. They took him to local hospital, and at about 6:20 last night, they med-flighted him to a larger hospital in Little Rock.  Bobby was in shock by then, and we are waiting to hear complete list of injuries.   He will be having surgery soon to repair arms, not sure about the back.  
Bobby is 74, and has been through a lot, cancer twice, and other health issues. He can use all the prayers  you are willing to send up. His wife, Barbara, can also use prayer, as well as the rest of the family.

Prayers on their way now! Breaking both wrists is a bummer. There are so many things you need a hand for. Hopefully, he'll be able to use them again soon.
And prayers are going up for Barbara, too. May God grant her the strength she needs to help her husband through this time.

You know that I am praying for him, Jettie. Your family has certainly had its share of health burdens in the last few months. Blessings- xo Diana
