Lavender 0 Posted January 16, 2011 thanks guys!! well my dad is doing ok, he is home now so that is a good thing, he still has alot of corrective surgery ahead of him though . He was working on a big truck and had a ball joint or bearing something like that, it was a 4 inch steel ball shoot out and enter through his neck and it got lodged in the back of his skull, crazy the EMT said it was the same as holding a shot gun to his face and it going off. the DRs said they don't know how he survived it scary scary stuff!! he has lost eye sight in his left eye and nerve damage to his face and a huge hole that is still there, it will close as it all heals and with surgery and skin grafting, it really is a blessing that he made it and is an eye opening experience as to how fragile and important our lives really are. it makes me hold my two little boys a lot tighter!
