The Blue Sparrow

I want to thank all of you for your prayers and support. My dad was hit last night on his way home from work by a drunk driver. This man, a 71 year old, well known alcoholic crossed the center line and almost killed my Dad. He was life-flighted to Creighton University(the hospital where Bryston was born.) The drunk man was transported by ambulance to an Omaha hospital as well but from my understanding with minor wounds.

Dad has sustained several head lacerations, a concussion, a small brain bleed, a fractured scapula, and a few broken ribs. He is hurting pretty bad. He just kept saying tonight, "My head hurts, My head hurts." He is regaining his whits about him but is still a little confused. My mom has to remind him several times an hour that he has stitches in his head and not to touch. He says, "I do?" after each time she tells him. He has no recollection of what happened. Which to me is a blessing.

On the ride to the ER last night I just kept telling God, don't you dare let this happen, not now, I'm not ready for this. God must have been listening because by all rights my Dad should be dead.

I am so furious at the man who hit him! Ty and I searched online and found a 3 page rap sheet for this creep. He has several that are for driving without a licence and even has an OWI 1st offence charge from July 2, 2009. Why was this guy on the road?

Here are the pictures of my Dad's truck that I took today. He must have had an angel with him riding shotgun because I just don't know how he got out alive. The drivers side is nearly untouched.

When you walk through fire, you won't be burned or scorched by the flames.
