Well, kind of.
On Wednesday my brother-in-law, Dan, was training with his airborne squad at Fort Bragg. They were jumping out of planes (no big deal right?). Well, the wind was crazy and when he deployed his parachute it got tangled. He started untangling it, but by the time he finished there wasn't a lot of time for the chute to get any lift and he ended up landing on his back and hit his head. Once medics got to him he was not breathing and had no pulse but his body was seizing. They performed CPR and once a pulse was established they air lifted him to Chapel Hill.
Today, he was discharged home with only a mild concussion and some cracked ribs (from CPR). Oh, and he's pretty sore. WOW! GOD IS GOOD!
He is a walking miracle!
Also, Caleb is on US soil! His unit has to finish up some things and then tey will be heading home to their families!!! I'm so excited! I can hardly sleep at night! Needless to say, the past couple of days have been very emotional and humbling. I know I am so blessed and thank God for it too little!
There will be so much to blog about soon!
Wow, that is amazing that he is OK! So glad to hear it!! And so glad your family of 3 is about to be reunited!! :)
