My Son Keith


Was at home working on my car and got a call that Keith was in a really bad motorcyle wreck a truck pulled out in front of him and he went off the road thre a cemetary at 60 mph. Im at the emergency room and they are airlifting him to Southbend Memorial he has collapsed lungs and broken bones. If he didnt have helmet on he would be dead. I am getting ready to head up there and hope for the best. It has been a very bad day and any hopes and prayers would really be appreciated. When I talked to him he was concious but drifting in and out of it. I hope for the best.
 
All my family and friends in Arkansas will be thinking of you and you family. Tell him to hang in there.

I'll send a prayer from the north Dave. Really hope that all turns out well. Looks like you and your family have a lot of support from the pulling community.
 
We pray for strength and a complete recovery for Keith and strength and comfort for this family in Jesus' name.

Like the centurion, I know Jesus doesn't have to physically be present, but only will it to be done.

Cast all your care on him for he cares for you.
 
Just got word from the doctors he has one partially collapsed lung and the other one injured to. Broken ribs and they say that he is in stable condition. Blood pressure is good but swelling can be a problem. He had a helmet on and it is cracked. The rest of the xrays have not came in yet he is banged up bad. This is the first time in my life that I have ever been scared he is a really tough person and I appreciate all of the nice comments. I let him take my Farmall with my truck and trailor by himself last night to a pull and from what I was told he done a good job. Thanks again for all of the nice comments. Dave Thompson jr
 
Know that the price has been paid all you need to do is acknowledge and receieve it. He will be healed, just believe!
 
It'll be tough, but I have faith he'll get through it. I did! The head injuries take patience and time to recover from, but they get better. Dave, Keith and your family are in my thoughts and prayers!
 
Dave and Kieth.. you and the rest of your family are in our Prayers.. There are some that posted above that have been through things like this.. Good thing for his helmet..

Dave took the time to let me know that Keith's condition is still about the same from what I gathered. Just continue to keep Keith, Dave and the Thompson family in your thoughts and prayers at this time. Thanks.
 
Thanks Brian Just got home from the hospital nobody should be there all day. They have his lungs pumped back up one is not all of the way yet. A lot of broken ribs and a broken bone in his spine. Severe bruising and in alot of pain. He was talking to me and his Grandmother. I told him he needs to stick to tractor pulling and only go around 8 mph. I appologize to everyone who has been calling for not answering the phone. I just havent felt like talking to anyone. He bought that Motorcycle and I was totally against it more power than I would want to be on. He just came home from California from training in the Army and then all of this happens. Things can only get better. I really appreciate all of the concern and caring people on here. Ill look forward to pulling with you guys someday down the road. Thanks for everything Dave Thompson jr.
 
Wow Dave...

Praying for you guys. It appears that though the walk back will be a long and difficult one, an angel was already watching. I hope you both come away stronger, smarter, and closer.
