Everyone,

This morning my friend was on a service call, changing a tire on I65 in Southern Indiana. As he was putting the tire in the trunk of the car he was smashed between his truck and the car he just changed the tire on when someone hit his truck from behind.

The outcome was that he has a broken leg above the right knee, same for the left except that his left leg below the knee will be amputated because it was smashed.

Please, everyone that reads this, just say a prayer for my friend/brother Trent. Things like this shouldnt happen, more then likely the driver was deistracted by something insignificant and caused this. He is 18 years old, just started college at UofL and had big plans for life. This isnt the end of life by any means, but the type of monkey wrench that was thrown is not the one that I would have expected.

Thank you everyone for all your support. I know he appreciates it.

Paul

 

Wow... thoughts and prayers are with your freind/brother.

 

Wow this is sad!
Did they catch who rear ended your friends truck?

My thoughts and prayers are with Trent fir a speedy recovery

 

My thoughts and prayers are with you bro...

please share updates as you feel comfortable with us, I am sure we would like to hear how this is progressing...

 

I will as soon as I know something. I know he is in surgery now, I will know more later today.

 

You got my prayers.
When I get bent outta shape over little things it's stories like this that help me realize how fortunate I really am.

 

Very sad to hear that this happened to anyone...especially someone so young. Probably someone texting or something stupid like that...ugh.

 

Dude, that sux Paul, so sorry to hear that...Hope he comes out ok, but if he will make it through! Ask Krazy Kripple, even being stuck in a wheel chair, he is still one of the most positive and determined people I know...Thoughts and prayers go out to ur friend...

 

sorry to of read this, hope things work out

 

Definitely keeping your friend in my prayers! When your buddy gets well enough he should definitely talk to krazy kripple...he has been an inspiration to many of us!

 

Thanks everyone for the positive thoughts and prayers. He made it out of surgery ok, they had to remove is lower leg about 4 inches past his knee cap. They are going to monitor it because they aren't sure if his knee will survive as it's broke in half and might not heal correctly.

Again, thank you all.

 

Damn sorry to hear that . He has my thoughts and prayers.

 

thoughts and prayers goes out for your buddy/family!!

 

Keeping your friend in my prayers too....

 

My thoughts and prayers are with your friend. I can't imagine going through that but I pray he makes it through just fine and still gets to pursue his college dreams...
