Hey guys and gals. Today my wife and I went an hour north of us to the DMV so I could renew my DL. Got that taken care of early so we were goin to go to Costco. I let my wife out by the door cause it was rainin(yea finally). Parked the car and went in. As I got inside, there was a person layin on the floor face down whimperin in pain. As I was passin by I stopped and looked closer and it was my wife. She had just gotten inside onto the concrete floor and slipped on some water. She fell forward and landed on her left shoulder.
Guys, it's bad. Ambo took her to the hospital where they took x rays and a CT scan. Surgeon said it couldn't be worse. It shattered the ball in the shoulder, tore her rotator cuff off, and splintered her humerus bone so bad they aren't able to do a shoulder replacement. That leaves 2 options, 1 is to do nothing and she looses all function in that arm basically. 2 is to do surgery and piece it back together like humpty dumpty. Best he says is maybe get 50% mobility back, but no guarantees. Bout a 4 hour surgery he thinks.
So I know some of y'all aren't religious but there are a lot of y'all that are. She'll be havein it done tomorrow afternoon. So PLEASE keep her in prayer for a successful surgery and for tha skill of the Surgeon. I am still so thankful that the fall just did the damage it did and not any more as she hit her head also a little when she fell. So no other damage to head, neck, back or hip. So thank you Lord for that. Won't be fishin for a while. I'll try to keep y'all posted on the situation. Thank Y'all SO much.

Oh, so sorry to hear that Saw. And we complain about the weather. Our prayers are with you, your wife, and the medical personnel. If I could go to church, I would have a mass said for all of you. Good luck to all, my friend.

Saw I truly hate to hear this, prayers sent. Keep your thoughts positive, Doctors aren't always right. After a bad back surgery in 2003 I was told I would never walk again. Spent three years in a wheelchair but I am walking and the Doctor's were wrong.
Saw,
Keeping all of you in my prayers today. Faith gets you through tough times & God can do Miracles!

How sad for both of you....especially at a time like this...you'll both be in my thoughts,she'll need lots of help in the months ahead.
Just read about your wife’s fall, Saw. So sorry to hear but we all KNOW that ALL things work together for good to those who love the Lord and are called according to His purpose. Sometimes it’s hard to see how disasters can bring glory to God, but sometimes He opens doors for us in strange ways. You know what I’m talkin’ ‘bout.
The Mrs. and I, as well as our church congregation will be praying for you, her and those involved in her care. God bless you, brother.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
