Fractured C-6

Donation protected
Hello from Team Michael headquarters. Last week, on May 8, Michael had an accident at the park while playing with his son.  He was standing on a swing, swinging very high, and lost his  balance, falling about 8 feet and landing on the upper part of his back.  After a very painful trip to the emergency room, we found out that he factured his cervical spine. We have much to be thankful for.  His injury was within degrees of causing permanent paralysis.  Michael is a firefighter with Rosehill Fire Depsrtment. Currently, he will be out of work for at least nine weeks with weekly x-rays and weekly visits to the neurosurgeon.  His salary is mostly covered, but his hospital bills are mounting.  His deductible is $3500, and we're not sure what will be owed in addition to that.  

Sarah, Michael's wife, has been amazing, as all life decisions are falling to her currently. Please be in prayer for Michael, Sarah and Liam.
