He was stuck on the mountain until this afternoon unable to move without going unconscious. The weather was so bad that the helicopter was not able to get him. The search and rexcue took over 10 hours and finally got there at the same time that the national Guard came in and air dropped some men into where he was and finally got him out. He is at the hospital in Vail Colorado now and they are trying to find out what is wrong.
We are so incredibly blessed that he did not have hypothermia. It was freezing up there with sleet and high winds.
Our Annie Laurie who had an emergency appendectomy 1 1/2 weeks ago and then went back in with huge blood clots in her lungs is also doing better. It has been a little trying the last couple of weeks. The same day our Annie Laurie had her surgery, our daughter in law Michelle had an emergency c-section and gave us our 25th grand baby. Yea! A couple days later my Dad had surgery on his shoulder and almost died in recovery. So.. we are about hospitaled out but are so grateful that the Lord is watching over us.
Thank you again for your prayers and for your caring hearts.
interesting side note is that we were in the "Sacred Grove" in New York, while alot of this was going on. What a wonderful place to pray for a miracle.
