Prayer Request for Charles (Captain Weather)

Charles' family and I thank you.

Here's the latest...

The doctor said they are going to keep Charles sedated for the next 24-48 hours. His leg was swollen so they didn’t go in to operate, they just put these metal bars on the outside for now. In 5-7 days when the swelling goes down they will have to go into the leg and put metal in (probably pins). So for now he is doing OK on the ventilator. His family won’t know much until tomorrow or Wednesday (depending on how long he stays sedated). No phone in his ICU room and can’t receive flowers there. Only "Mrs. Charles" and his son can call the nurse for updates (even his daughter can’t call).

It looks like it was an accident. It was foggy this morning in Bloomfield and an older man turned and hit Charles while he was crossing. He said he didn’t see him.


Your continued prayers will be appreciated.

What a horrible thing for Charles and his family! Donna, I also thought of you when I read about this. Hugs are headed your way, also. The furkids and Joey also said to send Charles (the Open House scritcher) get well chirps, woofs, and tail wags and hope he gets better fast. Leon and I are sending prayers and good wishes. Thanks, Mary Ann, for letting us know about him.

My heart is so heavy right now with this news. Of course Charles and his family will be in my prayers, as they will be in my thoughts all day.

Mary Ann, blessings to you for letting us know about this unfortunate event. I hope that the person who hit Charles is doing ok emotionally, I'm sure this isn't easy on him, either.

Donna, you came to my mind also. I hope your family is doing a bit better. Time helps.

Tuesday morning's report:

From Charles' son - dad made it through the night with no complications. They took the breathing tube out and he is breathing on his own.

He is heavily medicated but stirred when he heard mom's voice - they asked if he knew where he was and he said No, they said you're in the hospital then he was out (the pain meds).

If he stays the same or improves over the next day or two they will move him to a regular room.
