Prayer Request

My Grandpa Vernon remains in ICU at Lutheran Hospital in Ft. Wayne after falling and breaking his neck yesterday afternoon. He was in his electric wheelchair. The wheel caught the edge of the ramp, and he fell out, landing on his head. He landed on his head and suffered damage in the C1 and C2 areas.
The neurosurgeon saw Vernon. He said he was not a surgical candidate after reviewing the chart info from mayo clinic that Arlene faxed because of all the heart problems. Vernon is insistent that he wants to leave. He wants to get out of bed, take his own pills, and not call on the call light. He is going to be wearing a hard surgical neck collar vs. a halo. The heart doctor also saw him as he was having a lot of pain probably due to stress and was started on another medication.
He will probably be in Health Care for 6-8 weeks upon returning to Timbercrest sometime next week.
Please add him to any prayer chains at your church!
Thanks!
