You have filled our hearts with love, compassion, and support since Barryโs accident.
We are deeply thankful for the First Responders who have gone above and beyond in their efforts to take care of him and check on him.
The Lewis County Fire Department
Sherriffโs Department
EMTโs
Vanderbilt and Lifeflight have been amazing and we are thankful for their expert care.
Yesterday he had surgery for a fractured T 12 and had two rods and pins placed. He also has facial fractures and a broken nose that was fixed
He is on a vent and will be coming off that today hopefully.
Barry is still in the trauma unit at Vanderbilt so visiting is limited.
Edit: Barry was alert this morning and responded to Kara. The plan is to work on getting him off the vent today โค๏ธ
Thank you to Steve Vineyard and Jeremy Choate who helped recover his belongings and his Summertown Metals family for checking on him.
Mike and, I and Kara and Barry, and their children, ask for your continued prayers as we get Barry patched up and back up on his feet.
