So, three things, Jim:

1. First off, I'm really glad you lived through that wreck, because it really could have done you in. Thank God that it didn't, and I'll be continuing to pray for your recovery. I am certain that I stand together with hundreds of your friends and family members in petitioning the Lord for your health and well-being.

2. Secondly, what in the world were you thinking pulling a stunt like that? Your mother would have your hide for being so reckless, and rightly so! You're lucky she's not here right now to give you an earful for not being more careful.

3. Thirdly... now that we know you'll survive... did anyone get video?

Praying for Jim. I met him on the previous site we were on before becoming this one. He has always been one of my favorites. Kind and patient in replying to my noobie questions and a Godly man.

Jim's daughter Jami shared that Jim was in a Go Kart wreck and was in the hospital. Please keep him in your prayers.

Here is the update from her on his condition:

Finally saw Doctor. Basically his spine is pretty messed up. C2 vertebrae is bad but c6 and c7 - the ligaments are disrupted all around them. He also has chronic/narrowing (old age) in portions of his back. So they have to make a plan how to proceed with surgery (surgery is likely - unless Jesus gives us a miracle). Multiple areas - different issues - may require different access points? Brain bleed is minimal and they aren’t worried about it. Neck bleed should resolve on its own.

* we deeply appreciate all the prayers and love. I know dad is “one of God’s Favorites” - I’m sure many of you have heard dad say that to you.

I’ll try to post major updates as I get them.

For those who did not know - he also has 2 broken ribs and a broken clavicle. Those are clean breaks and look like they will heal well. Please pray for his neck and back. Thank you.
