The Accident...

On the morning of Saturday, March 7th, 2009, Tim Dobbs fell from his attic through the ceiling and landed on his back on the hardwood floor below. He was taken by Careflight to Harris Methodist Hospital in Fort Worth, TX. He is currently being treated in the Trauma ICU. He sustained a severe skull fracture, bruised brain, and bruised lungs from this fall. Tim was placed in a medical induced coma to begin his treatment.

Thursday, March 19th

Exciting news during the night! While the Doctor and nurse were examining Tim, his eyes opened and he was trying to swat them away. They increased his sedation to put him back to sleep. It's good news that the Tim we all know is trying to come back, but we need him to be still for a little while longer. At noon, they put a feeding tube directly into his stomach through his abdomen. He will not receive any food until tomorrow. I guess the Tracheotomy has been pushed back again to Friday.
