For those of you who don’t know Daddy was in a rather serious car accident last night. He has been admitted to Pitt Memorial in Stable condition. Updates from this AM are below

1:00AM update
They admitted him - he will be there for at least 2 days. He has 3 broken ribs and bruised lungs. I am not sure if his nose is broken but it should be. Everything from his upper lip to his forehead is swollen and red or blue.
10:35am update
Daddy is in Room North 448 – I don’t think there is a phone in the room and mom’s phone is going dead but Kelly and Bo should be there with her charger by now.
Dad has 4 broken ribs - 3 on one side and one on the other & Both lungs are bruised. He is in danger of collapsing a lung or filling with fluid because his breathing is too shallow. That is why he had to stay. He had 2 shots of morphine and an epidural last night to keep the pain under control.
Bo thinks he heard someone say that Daddy hit a building but we won't be sure of anything until they get the report from the HP today and go to the scene and take pictures. They saw the car last night. It is torn up pretty bad. The frame is buckled and the back end is slightly raised off the ground. In the dark they could tell that the rear view mirror was tilted all the way down so they are pretty sure that he hit that with his head. The doors are in tact and it didn't look like any of the windows were broken.
