| Kevin Ryan Submitted by: Don & Glenna Ryan | Last night Kevin was in a car accident on his way home with a friend. The friend was driving too fast and lost control of the car. Kevin got to a local public hospital with a dislocated shoulder and fractures in his elbow and lower back. Today we got in touch with him, it is 7 hours later there, and he is on his way with a coworker to a private hospital in Queen's Town. He is in a lot of pain in his lower back. Although he can move everything, he is in a lot of pain standing and is hoping to be admitted for a few days since he cannot cook etc. Please pray for good care and a good reception when he gets to the private hospital, please pray they will take their time with him and make a correct diagnosis. Please pray for relief of the pain and protection for his back. He had a back injury in high school as well. Pray he could make good decisions in the midst of all this. Praise God Kevin is alive. Thank you all. Please pass the message along. Thank you. Kevin just went into surgery to fuse vertebrae that fractured. I spoke to the surgeon and nurse at Blue Cross Blue Shield and am confident this is necessary. There is no neurological damage, which is good. Dislocated shoulder will heal in a sling. After the 2 hour drive to emergency room at Queenstown they put him in an ambulance to a hospital near East London, another 2 hours in a different direction, to see the neurosurgeon. We spoke to Kevin a couple of times. He is in good spirits. | 01-30-2012 |

Bob is feeling good but I think we will take it day by day for a while." Update from Cherk: "Bob is in having a stress test right now. They are going to see if his heart is strong eough for whatever GI procedure they think is necessary. The GI Doctors aren't in agreement as to what is causing his blood loss. One says internal bleeding the other says Bob's bone marrow is not producing new blood cells. That would require a bone marrow biopsy and a hemotologist. I'm praying for the easy way out. " Update: From Cheri..."Bob is still at Mercy hospital. They had to give him another transfusion. So now the plan is to try to get him in to the GI section to find the internal bleeding and stop it.
