Blessed!

One night in October my brother Casey had a friend visiting from his mission. Casey, Korbin and his friend Blair(who was grounded) decided to take her on a mountain adventure on the Razor. As they were heading back to the car they saw a really big steep hill covered in gravel, and being guys, said "Oh lets do it!" Going up was no problem for the big Razor but coming down was a different story! Korbin, who had just had surgery on his knee and shouldn't have been driving, started down the hill a little too fast. Soon they where skidding on the gravel;with no helmets or seat belts on they rolled out of control and where thrown from the vehicle. Blair landed on some rocks with a huge gash in his leg and across his head....Korbin was thrown in front of the vehicle and it rolled on top of his body! Casey immediately called an ambulance and they were both life flighted to the U of U Hospital where they spent the night in the ICU. Korbin had 3 broken ribs and extensive liver and lung damage. Blair had to have stitches across his head and on his leg. They definitely had angels watching over them that night because they where both out of the ICU the next day. Nurses said that that summer there had been 25 ATV accidents without helmets and only one came out of the ICU and he was paralyzed. Blair was able to leave a day later but in the 4 weeks to follow it was a fight for Korbin's life. Korbin kept having complication after complication. After lots of fasting and prayers Korbin was able to come home.









These scars are from where he had tubes draining his lungs!
