Yesterday (the 30th) Megan's cousin William was in a bad 4-wheeler accident in Dubuque. They ended up taking him by helicopter to the University Hospital in Iowa City in the afternoon because he wasn't responding like they would have liked him to.
Today (July 1st) he is awake & alert. He has started talking & is able to move his arms & legs. He has no broken bones, internal bleeding or organ damage. They were able to take out the breathing tube. They are probably going to keep him another night just to observe him. His parents drove 8 hours & go to IC late last night & are with him now.
As of now they are saying he just has a sever concussion & will be really sore/bruised for awhile.
This is a miracle of God! The 4-wheeler landed on this young boy & the handle bars were on top on his throat. He wasn't able to move or talk yesterday, only grunt. They thought he crushed his throat, broke his jaw, & that he would have brain damage. We all are just praising God for his protection & healing for William! Our God is amazing!
Thank you for your prayers.
