Thanks for the update on Daniel. Best wishes to her mom. I'm sure it is taking a lot of her strength.
Here is a update on Daniel:
He had surgery this morning and they found out his spine is cracked in half & the dr is saying he will most likely never walk again. So very sad. Still very critical
Update on injured Sailor:
He stable but still critical. Has a little bit of pneumonia but giving antibiotics to help with that. Mom is tired & weary but trying to stay strong for her boy.
Oklahoma moms are helping out. please give blood in your home town.
OK moms are the best!
Update on the injured Sailor:
He's in surgery now. They are flushing out his insides. Everything has started hitting his momma very hard. Two other navy moms went to see her yesterday & she just sobbed. So sad.
momof2sailors, I LOVE that youtube video. Thanks also for the news piece. I posted both of them on my facebook wall, and shared with several relatives I have in the area. My mom is active in her church prayer group and will get him on the list.
Update on Sailor in the hospital:
He is still basically the same. They did lower his BP meds last naught & his BP stayed steady so we were excited about that!!! He's expected to be in ICU for at least a month & then in hospital for 2-4 more months.
Here is a youtube video done for him.
Here is a story done about the Sailor on the local news.

Lisbeth, the family would like to know the station involved. Maybe for thanks? But any and all publicity would be appreciated in his honor. Also a letter or card would be appreciated as well.
