NFL Sunday
It’s a warm beautiful October day underneath a Carolina blue sky. Simply optimal conditions in which to catch an NFL football game.
Our Carolina Panthers are having the worst year yet at 0-5, but I’m trying not to let that dampen the ole spirits as we head into game day. We will be without our top receiver Steve Smith and starting safety Sherrod Martin against the Chicago Bears. The Panther injuries just aren’t letting up this year.
I just found out a little bit ago that a friend’s teenage son was thrown 30 feet from the back of a pickup last night and is seriously injured, on a ventilator. I’ve not been able to concentrate on anything else since I’ve heard. Please keep James in your prayers… I simply cannot imagine what his mother is going through right now.
I’m so sorry to hear about your friend’s son. Prayers are headed their way. I pray he makes it. After losing a child of my own, I have an idea of what his mom is going through. My prayers and love are with this family right now. Please keep me posted.

Thanks so much Helen. As of this morning, he’s had his surgery for the repair of jaw broken in two places. They will try to take him off the ventilator and sedation today. Thanks so much for the prayers!

Thanks for everyone’s prayers!!
