Last week I was told that one of my best friends fell off a roof while he was painting for his summer job and cracked his head open. He was airlifted so Seattle and was preparing for operation the next day. He couldn’t feel anything below his chest and the doctors told him that he had a 50% chance of being paralyzed. I heard all that before I went to church camp. Now I had a pretty good time at camp and the realism of the injury hadn’t really set in yet. We were all told at camp that when we got back home after experiencing the spiritual high at camp that we would be slammed with problems and stuff bringing you down as soon as you got home. Well, that was true. When I got back I heard that after the operation he was paralyzed from the chest down and the doctors don‚Äôt think that he will ever walk again. If you have any spare time in your day maybe you could just stop for a second and put in a good word for Nate Higgins with God, Buddha, the Irish or who ever you think can give him the support that he will need to get through this. Thanks.
