UMBig11
For those of you who follow his posts, just wanted to let folks know that his daughter and granddaughter were in a bad car accident on Sunday. The granddaughter looks to be doing okay but his daughter is headed into surgery on her pelvis right now.
This was posted over at Rivals, where he posts under a different account name, and he said it was okay to post here.
The family has set up a GoFundMe which I'll link below (I hope that's okay - I don't post a lot here). I'm sure someone will do something if it's not.
In any event, please keep the family in your thoughts.
Hope they make it out okay. Prayers are with them.
may the good Lord be with you and yours! good bless you
Hope everyone makes a full recovery. Sorry UMBig11
My daughter’s work started this. Prayers are just as good! Thank you for caring enough to post this!
Hope they both have a full recovery. Stay strong!
Be strong my friend. We are praying for her.
for your daughter umbig11
From one father to another, I truly hope they both have a speedy recovery. I can only imagine the immediate and overwhelming sense of dread that must have hit when you learned of this. Thoughts and prayers for you and your family. God Bless
Best wishes to one of the best dudes on this goofy website.
Prayers and thoughts for your kids
If you need anything, you let me know. I mean it. Prayers for your family.
Thoughts, Love, and Prayers buddy!
Get off the site and hold some hands! All our best to you and yours. I hope everything goes well, all things considered.
She is in 4th surgery now for the next several hours. Reading the blog is a nice distraction!
Hang in there. Make sure you have someone with you to help you through it too. Nothing more frustrating than not being able to do more in a time like this.
The problem here is that you provide good diversion for us in ways we cannot reciprocate, due to the information you provide.
And it's a slow news day. But I guess anything is better than staring at a waiting room wall.
born, things like health insurance didn't exist, or at least nowhere near like they do now. when mom and dad started having kids it was the 50's and a totally different era. dads waited in the waiting room for a doctor to come out and tell them about the birth of their baby - remember, no ultra sound back then either, so they'd get to know the gender then too.
anyway, dad always told the story about how he didn't have any money and had no idea how he was going to get big brother out of the hospital. he ends up playing cards with all the other fathers-in-waiting, and cleans up. paid the bill and then some. did you bring a deck of cards?
that's the best i can do for distraction, but hopefully the prayers of us bloggers are more effective. blessings to your daughter, in particular.
You've always been my favorite poster with Seth but this takes the cake. That's one heckuva family story.
Thinking of your family
you've added so much value to this place I consider my refuge. Best wishes to you and your family and especially your daughter. May the surgeons and medical staff execute a superb game plan.
As I sit here giving my infant daughter her bottle before bed, can’t imagine the anguish you’re feeling right now. Best of luck in surgery to your daughter and to your entire family through the recuperation process.
Prayers sent to you and your family.
Hope everything goes well for your daughter and everyone on the board is hoping brighter days are ahead for you and your family. As a guy who is a new father, I can’t imagine going through what you’re going through! Stay strong umbig11.
Prayers for her, your granddaughter, son-in-law and the rest of your family.
I'll pray for your family
Praying for your family, sir. Much love, from myself and the rest of the Michigan community.
Sending positive vibes and prayers for the best outcome.
Goodness, that's scary. I'm glad your granddaughter is ok. I will pray for your daughter & son-in-law.
I went over and donated. UMBig11 has put some worthwhile content on here.
If anyone has earned it, he has.
Hoping for quick and full recoveries for all.
Just donated. Sad what Happened. Hope everything works out!
As a father and husband I can’t even imagine what your going through. I hope everyone pulls through ok and I hope the people in the other car are ok too.
The other driver was not injured.
Prayers are up for them. God Bless. Stay strong and have faith.
Go over there and show us what a 5-star donor would do.
Hope everyone is OK umbig11.
I wish there was something more i could say beyond thoughts and prayers. stay strong.
Best of luck to the girls.
This is my worst nightmare. Prayers & a donation.
Will keep you and your family in my prayers. Always appreciate the updates.
Prayers headed your way, umbig11. Stay strong; we're looking forward to everyone having a full recovery!
Sorry UMBIG11. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Hope everything works out ok and soon.
How terrible. Nothing more gut wrenching than getting news like that. Feel so helpless. Thoughts and well wishes and prayers for the family.
I hope everything turns out well for you and your family.
As a parent reading something like this brings tears to my eyes. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
I am a new poster around here, but a long time reader. Prayers for your girls, UMBig11
Absolutely praying UMBig11. God hears every single one...
Thoughts and prayers for him and his family.
