Support Thomas Turner's Road to Recovery

Early Sunday morning my brother in law Thomas Turner was a passenger in a severe car accident.

He is currently in ICU with several fractured vertebrae, neck, ribs. He will more than likely require multiple surgeries and will be in the hospital a long time.

He won't be able to work for several months and has a long road to recovery. If you know Thomas, you know that he would give the shirt off his back to help someone else.

Please donate what you can to pay towards his medical expenses and his daily living expenses.

Update: Thomas is in surgery now. Hopefully everything goes well! It's a long surgery to fix his neck and we will see what else needs to be done after. Thomas has been in and out of consciousness.

Update on 6/4: Thomas came out of surgery about 10pm last night and at first was having a hard time breathing. The wonderful nurses and doctors were able to stabilize the breathing.

He had a second surgery early this morning that we were unaware that was going to happen. This surgery was on his spine. He is doing well now and is resting. Please continue to pray for him and share our support in any way you can! Thank you!

6/9 Update

Thomas has been able to sit in a wheelchair for about an hour a day the last 3 days. He sure gets exhausted after sitting up. As of right now he has feeling in his legs and fingers but cannot move them. He has been doing physical therapy also.

please continue to send prayers and positive thoughts! And share and support in anyway you can!

Also if you are local Thomas enjoys getting visitors. Go and see him!

Update as of 6/20/24

Thomas is being moved to Peace Health in Vancouver. He still has a long, uncertain journey ahead of him. Yesterday he was informed that after the rehab at Peace Health that he would need more care and would need to live in an adult foster home. My heart is just breaking for Thomas. Going from being an active hard working man to not being able to care for himself is life altering. He is adjusting to a new way to live.

Thomas is paralyzed, he has some use in his hands but no strength. We are praying that with the physical therapy that he will be able to regain strength in his arms and fingers.

please keep praying and if nearby go visit Thomas! Please share or donate what you can.

Update 7/24

Thomas is home now. He is excited to be in his own space. What's even more exciting is that he has been wiggling his left toes and has moved his left leg!

Whats not so exciting is that when he applied for fmla he found out that someone since the day of the accident had been reporting unemployment and collecting it. So all of his benefits has been put on hold. He has reported the fraud and it's being investigated. Right now he needs assistance more than ever! Here are some pictures from when I went and saw him on Sunday!
