Rebel Yeller Posted October 21, 2008 Author Report Posted October 21, 2008 Just a quick update, Bud was awakened yesterday by the doctors. The reports say that his neck is broken, but it is in an area where they do not expect any loss of movement. He will most likely be in a halo rig from 6 to 9 months. He had a broken rib with bruised lungs and that was the reason for the ventilator, to help ease his breathing. He did have some blood on the brain that they were considering surgery to alleviate the pressure, but I did not hear if they did the surge yesterday or not. Let me say thak you for the outpouring of concern and prayers for Bud and his family. This will be a situation that they are dealing with for months to come. I will keep everyone updated on his progress, just know that your response was appreciated. Praying for you, Bud
YankeeDawg Posted October 21, 2008 Report Posted October 21, 2008 Rebel, Please pass this scripture along to Bud's family. It has given me peace many times over the past years in dealing with my family's medical and other issues. Matt 21:22 And all things, whatsoever you shall ask for in prayer, believe in, and you shall receive. Thanks YD

Rebel Yeller Posted October 23, 2008 Author Report Posted October 23, 2008 Another Update on Bud He was to have surgery this morning, but it had to be postponed due to a fever. He is still in an induced coma, but it is more due to the fact that he tries to pull out the ventilator that is assisting his breathing. Will keep everyone updated as news come available. Thanks for all the continued prayers and kind wishes.
