Please include Beachbummett's brother, Steve, in your prayers. I just received a text from her saying he was in an explosion at work and is being Care-Flighted to UAB Hospital.

This just texted in (with her blessing to share with all of you):
"They have him in stable condition & he will have to endure five hours [of surgery] or more tomorrow. He broke his humerus in the left arm, & his tibia & fibia in his left leg. It's a green stick fracture that splintered all the way to the knee cap. Keep praying. We have the same blood type so I have to donate blood."

I would be a little bit scared to get BB's blood. I would suddenly be cooler than I could stand.

Oh my. I don't know how to do this texting thing. Hoping your brother recovers quickly, BB and my thoughts are with y'all.

I'll be praying until further notice...I'll check back often for updates. I'm sure a little of his sister's blood will pink him right up.

BB and her brother will be in my prayers. What a strange thing "an explosion at work"!

This is a good reminder to donate blood on a regular basis. Contact your local blood bank.
Glad to hear that he is out of imminent danger. Keep us posted. Prayers still being sent.

Thanks for the update. Still praying.

I would be a little bit scared to get BB's blood. I would suddenly be cooler than I could stand.If he suddenly has a passion for pink and jewels, we'll know why! Hope his surgery goes well. UAB is an excellent hospital, so he is in good hands. Many people here choose UAB over Emory and other hospitals in Atlanta.

BB, I just saw this! I was thinking of you earlier wondering if you were here. I hope all is going better today, sounds like a lot of recovery time. Lots of SoWal prayers heading that way.
