Prayers Needed...

I just received a phone call from Ed (Weedwalker). His son was in a very bad accident. Multiple fractures and head injuries. This was all Ed could tell me, as his wife had called him at 4:30 AM. He's driving home right now from Pennsylvania. He asked me to make a post here. Please keep his son in your prayers, along with Ed and his family.

Dave and everyone else: I received a call from Ed while I was in the shower about 6:30 a.m.. When I returned his call, he told me about his son's "Accident". It seems that Ed's son was heading to work and somebody in a pickup truck crossed the yellow line, sideswiped his vehicle, knocking him off the road and over a cliff to a fall of about 50 feet. The guilty party fled the scene. Happened up around Manchester where there are plenty of spots like that where you can get run off the road and go downhill forever it seems.

At this point, all Ed's wife could tell him is that the boy has multiple fractures, head injuries, and is in and out of consciousness. He could only tell them it was a pickup truck that hit him and forced him off the road. Surely the authorities will catch this character.

Ed told me that Dave was going to make the post. I want to get the FNF prayer train going at full power. I have emailed all my sources as per usual, and thousands of prayers are going up for Ed's son, Ed himself, and his family. God bless Ed Lay, his son, and his family.

Some Good news!

I just got off the phone with Ed. The Dr's earlier prognosis was pretty severe when Ed first heard it from his wife. As of right now he is in much better shape than first determined. No skull fracture or head injuries. He's got broken ribs. He's going to be alright as per Ed!

I'm sure once Ed gets home he'll be able to update us all. We'll still keep them all in our prayers. The Good Lord was surely watching over that young man.

I want to say THANK YOU to Dave (HuntnCarve) , Possumal, and ALL my family here at FnF for your prayers and concern.
I first got news of the accident at 4:30AM today while I was at work. It happened about 2AM. It sounded very severe with the initial reports. Thankfully it wasn't as bad as first thought. He busted his ribs up pretty bad and has a concussion. They ended up watching him for a while today then let come home. He's going to be VERY sore for a while.
He was very lucky he didn't get killed. It was a big drop onto giant boulders in a creek bed under the cliff.
I have never felt so helpless as being 700 miles from home and get a call that one of my kids has been in an accident and having to drive 10 hours home. I hope none of you ever have to do anything like that.
Thanks again to ALL of you.

Ed Lay
