HANG IN THERE BRO

Not feeling much like writing. My brother in law Nev is currently under sedation at the Alfred Hospital in Melbourne following a 4 metre fall from scaffolding while working yesterday. He was conscious after the event, but in a pretty bad way, was airlifted to the Alfred and put in an induced coma.

After 24 hours, not a lot has changed. He has broken ribs, a fractured skull, some bleeding round the brain, will be in intensive care for several days as his progress is monitored. For the rest of the family, especially his wife and children, the waiting is the worst part.

As the one who usually comes to everyone else’s rescue and lends a hand doing whatever, he’s now the one who will be on the receiving end, which won’t sit comfortably with him.

Spare a prayer for him, it’d be appreciated.
