Prayers go out for him n his family..
You are still very blessed to have your life. I understand that these kinds of jobs can be dangerous and sometimes hard to deal with. My husband is a worker there as well. I am also a MILL worker, but my job is nowhere near as dangerous as yours. I thank GOD that you were able to come out alive with the situation you were in. It could have been a lot worse. I pray for you a successful recovery. And thank emergency staff were able to get you in a timely manner. We said a special prayer for you as med-vac flew over. God bless you, and your family as well!!!
Hope you have a speedy recovery and may god bless you..
