Answered Prayers: A Final Update on My Son

Once again I wish to thank all those who have prayed for my son's recovery from a broken back. Nine months after the accident, months in a brace, and weeks of physical therapy, he was finally able to return to his job. And after a few months of office work and other temporary tasks, he just recently started driving again.

He's still dealing with some pain and awkwardness which is to be expected. As a flatbed truck driver there's a lot of climbing up and down, strapping, cranking, and slinging heavy chains. This is causing him some difficulty. There are days where one makes multiple short runs which involve more of this 'on the trailer' sort of work – securing and dismantling each load. He's not as keen on that at present (as those are days of considerable pain) and he does better with longer drives and less fuss. It's still going to take some time and it may be in the end that he decides to pursue something else. Time will tell.

Therefore, please keep praying if it comes to mind. But be assured that prayers have been answered. God be praised and thanks to all of you again. My son can not only walk but it would seem he's slowly returning to a normal life.
