Default Prayers

My wife's nephew was in a near fatal motorcycle crash Friday afternoon. He went off the road into a ditch throwing him forward. The handle bars dug into his right shoulder shatering his collar bone. It then ripped him down his chest and around his right side till it exited. The collar bone severed the main artery in his neck beyond repair. He lost 10 pints of blood and his pressure was 50/0 when he got to hospital. He was taken by ambulance as care flight was tied up on another crash. He was taken to 1 hospital and then tranfered to Miami Valley Hospital in Dayton Ohio. The Doctors did not exspect him to live, but he is pulling through so far. He also has a lacerated lung and splene. His name is Jason Ritter and has only been Married for 11/2 years. Please pray for him and his wife.
