Update 5: Matt had a collapsed lung last night, so they wound up putting chest tubes in to suction out more of the gunk. He's more stable again now, on lower oxygen today, but it was a pretty rough night.

I'm sure his awareness that you're there, that you care, is helping him a LOT and strengthening him.

Did the crash involve other vehicles & victims?
If so he'll eventually need a lot of emotional support dealing with that.
He's a very fortunate guy to have supportive caring friends like you.

He and his fiancee were hit by a guy in a truck, but I think the guy was okay.

Well, he's more stable and that sounds good. Hopefully he won't need the chest tubes for long.

Thanks for all the prayers. He still has a torn aorta, so they're keeping his blood pressure down. I spent a good portion of the day with him and his family. He's not awake yet. Lacerations to the liver, kidneys and scalp, six broken ribs, a broken C2 vertebra. He's going to be in the ICU for a good long while.

jesus christ

was there any cord damage? if so, how much? what've the neurologists said?

prayed again for him, you, and his family

No cord damage apparent. He's moving his limbs.

He will make it! He's made it this far. Hang in there. It will turn out okay!
My prayers continue.
