polksalet Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 He was unloading a shipment of sulfuric acid in Dallas last night. A hose busted and he has burns over a third of his body including one eye. He is losing the ability to breathe on his own and they are expecting to put in a ventilator soon and begin surgeries tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polksalet Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 This is the same broinlaw and sis that lost everything in the subprime collapse and were virtually homeless at 50. A couple of years ago he was delivering asphalt and it exploded on him. He has a couple of skin grafts but pretty much fully recovered. They have had a really tough time lately. I'm planning to road trip to Dallas to see him this week when I get over this bug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
