I made a error in my posting, Buzz is in surgery right now to have his spine reconstructed. He had another surgery this past Monday. It is a 5 to 6 hour procedure. If you have not read the other post, Buzz is currently in ICU in Parkland Hospital in Dallas. He has had some major injuries. I talked to his dad last night and he said that some arteries had been torn from the aorta, dislocated vertabrae and he is going in surgery right now (Friday 8/13) to have a portion of his spine rebuilt. This young man needs ALL of our prayers and support. The doctors are not sure until they do the surgery about long term effect but as of now, He is paralized and has no feeling from the navel down. Keep him and his family in your prayers. I am also working on setting up a fund thru paypal to help them out, I will post more soon. Also Pray for Heidi Possin, Tanner Heemsbergen, Dillon Terry, and Justin Berry all were severly injured in dirt bike accidents.

Buzz had his spine surgery. Originaly the docs said his spinal cord was damaged to the point of him probably not being able to walk again but after them going in and looking at the area the story is now way better. The spinal cord wasn't severed, there was no loss of spinal fluid, and the nerves didn't appear to be damaged. Good news! Please keep praying!!
