Sorry folks for not being able to post anything yesterday. Early afternoon I received a phone call stating that my dad had an accident at work. He had fallen around ten feet off a boat he was working on. My sister told me he’s been life flighted to Bangor hospital. Needless to say I immediately dropped everything and went to be with my dad.
Upon arriving at the hospital I found out he was going in for a cat scan. I was able to see him for a couple minutes. At this point we knew he had some broken ribs, a punctured and collapsed lung, and a big nasty cut on his head.
After cat scan we found out he had six broken ribs. His stomach was fine, nothing wrong with his neck, back or spine. Us Sargent men have hard heads….just ask our wives…: )..
Other than some pain from broken ribs dad should be just fine. This is where I say a big thank you for God’s protective hand. My dad is 65 years old. Now a ten foot fall onto a concrete floor for anyone let alone a 65 year old man is pretty rough. So there is no doubt, God protected my dad from anything further happening to him. We will continue in prayer that he keep dad’s recovery as painless as can be. We also have to keep an eye on dad catching pneumonia which at this point is our biggest concern.
