Wow praise the Lord Phil.  That is fantastic.  And make sure he sticks with
no smoking and such.  The Lord needs him for something.  Father in Heaven we
thank you for sparing Everett we know you have great plans for him.  We ask
that you speak to him directly and he know it is you.  Keep him on the
straight and narrow.  Thank you for all you have done and will do in his
life.  In Jesus precious name we pray.  Amen

I would rather live my life as if there is a God, and die to find out there
isn't.  Than live my life as if there isn't a God, and die to find out there
is.

 

ABC's of Salvation:

Admit you are a sinner.  Rom 3:23

Believe in Christ.  Acts 16:31

Confess your faith.  Rom 10:9-10

 

If you believe there is not a God.  Than just die.  For without a God you
can do this.

 

The national anthem in Hell is:  "I Did It My Way"

Subject: News About Everett

 

He comes home Monday.  We had an all family meeting with three doctors and
several therapists and techs and each gave a report.  His skull is still
cracked in places but healing slowly as brain injuries always do.  He still
has double vision in one eye that they cover up with glasses; clear glass on
one side and foggy glass on the other.  Physically, nothing is different
than before and although parts of his various brain lobes are bruised, they
are healing and the swelling is going down.  They hammer hard on no smoking
and no alcohol and explained in detail what those two things can do to a
brain trying to heal.  One of the doctors estimated 1 to 1.5 years out for
total recovery.  He will be an out patient for months, going into the
hospital for a day, or half a day, for testing and additional therapy.  They
will assist him, as they already have been, getting his GED, eventually
going back to work, which likely will be a few months before he can work,
and to keep track of the improvement of his cognitive development as he
continues improving.  Everett was in the office during the meeting and all
the people spoke directly to him the whole time.  We listened to Everett
asking them questions and then we asked our questions when they opened the
meeting for such.  Everett sounds normal, with normal speech, and you'd
never know he had a severe, nearly fatal, head injury.  If the two people
that called it in, wouldn't have told the police that someone was laying in
the middle of the street when they did at 1 in the morning, Everett would be
dead today.  They even gave their names and phone numbers to the police so
we are going to get the report so we can thank them.  They told the police
they could be contacted to hear what happened to the kid they reported.
Everett was dearly liked by every doctor, tech, or therapist that worked
with him.  He told them, he knows he has been given a second chance, and he
is going to make the best of it.  He can't do any activities that would
cause too much stress on his head.  Bike riding, for example, wouldn't be
wise until the doctors say it is ok.  They are going to help him continue
learning to drive.  In a month, he was up for his own license and he has had
a driver's permit now for about a year I think.  Anyhow, they will assist
him in that by driving with him and working on various techniques.  So, they
are pulling out all the stops to help him.  Our insurance was going to stop
coverage Monday so the doctors said they would slowly work with him through
out-patient procedures and even if he had to stay longer, the non-profit
hospital would pay for his care so money would be no problem.  As I told a
friend, if I didn't know better, I would have thought we were in a Bible
study with everybody getting a chance to talk and speak; it was that good.
Gives me goose bumps just thinking about it.  These were people who truly
care for others and especially for the severely injured.  He is a little
nervous now to come home because, he told his mom, I'm afraid I'll hurt
myself.  They will be talking to him, if they haven't already, even about
that.  They don't miss a thing; these folks are real prose in their fields.
Sandy or I will report on his continued healing as it goes along.  Thanks
for all the prayers and when you think of him, and us, just whisper a little
thanksgiving and more healing for everybody in the Scovell family.

 

Phil.
