I haven't been able to blog for a while due to a rotator cuff injury. Still too painful to type much. However, I would like to ask those of you who read this blog to please pray for a very special 17-year old, Michale Batts. I've been "Aunt Debbie" to Michael since he was 5 years old.
This past Sunday, Michael was T-boned by a truck, pulling a horse trailer. He remains unconscious and in critical condition. He has a broken pelvis (both sides), broken ribs, cracked pubic bone and tail bone. He also has tears in his brain...the same type of injury that occurs in Shaken Baby Syndrome.
He was taken off the ventilator on Thursday and is breathing on his own, with occasional help of a Bi-pap to make sure he is getting good, deep breaths to prevent pneumonia. He has shown intermittent signs of response to voices he recognizes as well as commands but nothing consistent as of yet.
Please pray for God to heal Michael's brain injury and that he will wake up. Also, please pray for his parent, Paula and Kerry Batts and younger brother, Nathan Batts.
Thank you!!

He had horse accident? Or I didn't understand. I will pray for him. God bless!
No, he was driving a car and was hit side on (on the driver's side) by somebody driving a truck and they were pulling a horse trailer. So, the impact was very great...pushing the driver's door in over 2 feet, causing the same kind of brain injury like seen in Shaken baby syndrome due to the way his head was thrown around.
Thanks for more informations. I had understood now.
