I'm not going to lie I used to think these blogs were dumb. That is until a couple of weeks ago. My best friend just got a job out in Denver, CO as a welder, he had his first full week a couple of weeks ago. On March 27 he was welding and his harness broke and he fell head first off of a 50 foot scaffoling. He had 2 blood clots one on each side of his head those were removed the same day as the fall in an all day surgery. He also suffered from 7 broken ribs, a bleeding splean, a punctured lung and a rip in his aorta. The doctors told us he would be in a drug induced coma for at least 4 weeks and not to plan on him getting out or being transfer until at least this fall. Yesterday we found out because of his progress he may be transferred to Columbia in 5-7 days to be closer to home! He is talking and sitting up on his own. Without a blog his girlfriend has posted many friends would not know how he was doing. And by everyone reading the blogs things dont get misunderstood we all know exactly what is going on.
