6/25/09

I am writing this blog to inform people of how God is working in Danny's life and our familys. I am his sister Stephanie and i pray through Danny's story others will come to know the wonderful savior we already serve.
6/25/09 Danny went to get TJ a family friend or more like a brother to cut down a tree limb that had fallen in our back yard...lots of stuff happened between then but the short story is when Danny actually cut the limb completely away from the tree one of the branches hit the bottom of the ladder and flipped the ladder out from under Danny he then began a close to 20 foot fall that would change things...he flipped through the air hit branches on the way down and rolled we believe that when he hit the ground he hit tree roots sticking up and thats what broke his T7 and T8 bones in his spine. TJ called 911 and the police officers and paramedics in Hallsville were such a blessing from God they came very very quickly and helped Danny to get to the hospital. We took him to GSMC in Longview and he was sent into the Trauma room they ran tests and told him not to move. we waited what seemed like a lifetime to hear that Danny would probably never walk again. He was transported from Trauma ER to Surgical ICU where he met some amazing nurses Judy and Holly. They were lifesavers.....We then talked to Dr. Chow and he explained things a little better he then said Danny needed surgery on his spine to repair the broken bones so he could sit up but that would take place later....
