I received a call from Pat yesterday, telling me she, Memama and Chris were headed home at a high rate of speed. They had been to Doctor Bowman's for cornea checkups. They got got reports by the way.

Pat went on to tell me that Hag's youngest brother Hank had been involved in an accident at work. Hank works at an aviation facility in Austin. It seems that he approached a King Air and unlatched the door to go inside. It seems that someone had pressured up the cabin and left it pressured with no warning. If my information is correct. the door blew open hitting Hank in the face, knocking him from the ladder he was on. He was rushed to the hospital where he was put on a respirator, scans were done and he was taken into surgery.

As Pat and her passengers were headed West, Hag and Pepa were headed East. When they met, Hag and Pat would go South towards Austin and Pepa would bring Pat's passengers on home.

Pat and Hag made the drive to Austin as did other family members. Upon their arrival they learned that Hanks chances of surviving were less than 1%, and if he did survive permanent damage was expected.

I am sure all of this was painfully reminiscent of last summer when these same family member were summoned to Austin after Hank and his family had dodged a vehicle that had run a red light, resulting in a crash that took the life of Hanks wife and the mother of his kids.

After I had received the phone call yesterday, I returned to the travel trailer and told Krl what was going on. Of course Hank's accident led the conversation but I had also learned that after Rian was sent home from the hospital Wednesday, he was being admitted again Thursday morning.

Immediately Krl wanted to pray and we held hands and lifted Hank and his family along with Rian for healing and care. It was special as we took turns petitioning GOD.

This morning I received a voice mail from Pat informing me that Hank died about four fifteen this morning. He is survived by his two children ages 14 and 10, his father, and his brothers and sisters.

Needless to say this is tragic. Hank was a good guy.

Funeral arrangements are pending as Hank had made arrangements to donate all his organs for transplant. Even after death Hank is blessing others.

Our problems pale in comparison.

FATHER, we lift up Hanks family for YOUR comfort. Surround them with YOUR angels. Thank YOU for blessing our lives by knowing Hank. We continue to lift up Rian for YOUR miracle of healing. FATHER, it is difficult to understand why bad things happen to good people, strengthen our faith in knowing YOU are in control and YOU are looking at a much larger picture.
