Re: I had an accident;
I knew about this when it happened. It was quite fortunate that he was able to obtain surgery as quickly as he did.
This was serious microsurgery by a plastic surgeon who specialized in hand injuries. Had it been a little more severe, the resulting complications would have been much more extensive. There was a narrow window of time to repair this injury.
I drove out to Cumberland on the morning of his surgery to bring him back home and to retrieve his Surburban from the hospital parking lot. This accident has set back his ability to perform repairs very much. I have seen his hand cast which went from his hand to his elbow and the limitations it imposed.
In addition, doctor's appointments and physical therapy sessions weekly to regain his strength and mobility, have added to his difficulties. Also, as a business owner, he is not entitled to unemployment or workman's compensation for injury on the job.
I did not want to let the network know earlier, since it was not my place to do so. I respected his decision to make this known in his own way. We discussed this plan earlier. When I drove to Cumberland to have dinner with him and Diana tonight, we discussed it further and decided this would be the right time to do it.
His need is NOW. He is not looking for charity or handouts, just trying to get through this unforeseen situation until he fully recovers. I have no doubt that he will honor each and every agreement that he makes. I have already pre-paid for repairs and maintenance that I know I would have him do in the future anyway. I hope others will follow.
This is what family, SVX or otherwise, is all about.
