Here are the tender mercies: I was right behind him when it happened, so I was right there to see him; Erik was the 2nd policeman there and helped with the scene; the hospital was three blocks away; 3 of our friends came right down to give him a blessing and were available to do so; it was good weather for the next 3 weeks, so some good friends came and made us a new ramp/walkway for Stu to use;
after the accident, our water line to the street began leaking more, so we had to replace it. Jared, a friend of his(Jeremy Daggett) and our former neighbor, (Tim Kelly) came over with a bulldozer and an excavator and they were able to do that for us for cost of pipe and fittings. (also still good weather)
I am grateful for all the good wishes, help with things around our property , delicious food and prayers that were sent our way! Stu's sister, Carol also made him a beautiful quilt and it was here within a week of his accident!
He is doing much better- physical therapy ( we have several friends and a son who are PT's, which helps when we have questions) has helped a lot and by Christmas he will be without crutches!
Thank you, again for all your support!
Here are some pictures of the walkway, the waterline and Stu !

It still makes me sick that this happened, but I'm glad he's finally recovering. Here's hoping the long-term effects are minimal! Poor Stu. :(
He's doing great! I also hope your dad is coming along on his recovery, too! Funny how they are doing things together!!:)
