Prayer Request For Broken Soldier

**
:heart:

Hi everyone.

First I wanted to say thank you again....to everyone who has sent genuine positive thoughts and prayers to Broke (and to myself also). I certainly have felt them lift my spirits and I know they have reached Broke as well.

I was able to speak to him briefly today. He is in some pain, very difficult to understand, and still going thru the after affects of the induced coma. But hearing his voice today was so encouraging, so needed, so calming.

I told him about everything going on here at Lit...and he thanks everyone who has sent their good wishes. For the rest...well, - no comment.

Big hugs and kisses....and we are eternally grateful. Please keep it up, I join you in your positivity.

You guys know I love you.........well Tek I like you.

I understand if you were truly genuinely asking out of concern and friendship,
but I felt like when I read these, you guys were being quite disrespectful to Broke and OSW. The sarcasm comes through clearly!

You know the old saying.........If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all? Yeah.....maybe this might apply here.

How am I being sarcastic? I asked if I could send a card to Broke

then asked if he'd have a computer in the hospital. Are you serious?

I didn't really see sarcasm in your post. My gut feeling told me you were genuine.

I realize that emotions are running high and that this is a touchy subject for some.

I only please ask that this thread be kept positive...for positive thoughts directed to Broke and for positive prayer for him.

Please let's not argue here.

It really really means a lot that he continue to recieve positivity...he is going thru a really hard time right now.

Love,
OSW

Hi everyone :)

Spoke with Broke for hours this morning. He is doing so much better. I was also able to get more detail regarding the procedure done to him... and see that my original understanding was different than what was actually done.

As it turns out, what actually happened was that a piece of shrapnel was lodged in Broke's skull when a mortar hit his bunker. Brain surgery was never needed, the danger was in the removal of the shrapnel which was deeply lodged in his skull.....and all of your prayers and positivity....were so helpful in getting Broke thru it.

He continues to go thru various motor skillls testing and such, and is passing them with flying colors.

I thank you all so much...all of you who have been so supportive.

I can't express how grateful we are, or how happy I am to have my Broke back.

I continue to think of you and pray for both, and, Broke, come back soon, this wonderful girl of yours needs you! She's doing so great and keeps us informed, you have to be so proud of her.
And don't you dare to say something different! You really don't want me to come there and kick your butt! :D :D

Hello everyone.

Broke is doing as well as can be expected. He continues to undergo therapy and is continuing to feel the normal affects of his injury, which was quite serious.

It is a slow process.

I pray for him everyday, and continue to give him my genuine positive feedback and love. I know that at times it may be difficult to remember, but your prayers and positivity are still very much needed, and are so very appreciated.

Thank you all.

Much love,
OSW

OSW, I feel ashamed for not being privy to this and offering words sooner....( result of me only checking my subscribed threads)

I'm not religious in any way, but best wishes I can legitimately offer. I only bumped into Broke a few times when I had the uncomfortable occasion of "waking up" with him and such....but that's no matter. As a countryman, his pain is a tiny bit mine; and I'm thankful for him. I know your pain and anxiety must be tremendous as well, so (((((((((((((((((((OSW))))))))))))))))))))))

Big hug for you.:rose:
