Friend possibly paralized.

I am just a wreck right now. One of my good friends was in an accident last night. He is possibly paralized now. He broke his spine in 2 spots and fractured 2 vertibrae. He has no insurance. They are discussing going in to do surgery but do not want to make the injury worse. Please pray for Justin and his mother. He is an only child, and his dad left, so it is just his mom and him. They are both a wreck. Justin is trying to be possitive and crack jokes, but I am just a nervous wreck. He is just 23! Please be careful when 4 wheeling.....his over turned and this is what happened. His stupid friends then MOVED him and took him HOME! Yep....not even to the hospital....this make the injury worse. We need some good vibes for Justin....and me. I am struggling seeing one of my very good friends just laying there and possibly never walking agian. He is toooo young for all this. I want to go to the hospital agian so bad, but work will not let me leave......

I am praying for Justin!

I am from a small town. There was a teenage boy last fall riding a 4 wheeler and he flipped it. He is now paralyzed. My son wants a 4 wheeler as everyone seems to have one. There is no way he is getting one. He is not even allowed to ride a friends.

Try and stay positive.

What happens in America when you don't have insurance? Surely you're still cared for!!

I don't think they are allowed to refuse help but they can stipulate payment arrangements for surgeries and such. I have insurance and still end up oweing some more.

Good luck to your friend and his mom. I'll definately keep them in my prayers.

Keep us posted here please.
