Husband hurt at work...

Post by admin »

Keep my hubby in your prayers. While at work (he works for the family construction business) he was hit on the top of his head with a hugh piece of asphalt. He had to get 2 staples and a CT scan. CT scan came back normal. Doctors think he may have a brain contusion. MRI was done at 2pm and results are yet to come. He was slurring his speech a bit and he is kinda in "slow" motion.
We were told that he should be just fine. I have to wake him up every 2 hours once he falls asleep.
That's all I know for now.

Krista,
Hope it is not serious and that he is left with nothing more that a huge headache and that that goes away quickly too.

Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers! It has been a scary time for us!
Everything is okay now. His MRI results came back normal. He has "post concussion (sp?) syndrome."
He will go back to work next week. For now, he has to rest and relax. I am sure he won't mind doing that for a while. His staples will come out in 6 days.
It means a lot to me to see all of your kind words.
Thank you!
