| Thank you YT family.......... Quote:
Yes when I heard Olivya was there with him alone I freaked. Thank goodness he had the baby gate up and her on the other side of it. This is something he has done hundreds of times, as my Dad got him into RC car racing at a very young age and he progressed into 1100cc dwarf car racing. Now him and my Dad are getting the younger boys in the family into it. I guess he noticed a smell and saw it was starting to swell so he took it to the sink and turned around to get a metal pan to cover it and as soon as he turned back around it happened. He was 2-3 seconds to late. Kevin is staying at my mom's house so she can help him and his fiance can continue to work as he can't right now. She also has my niece there with her so she has been a busy Mom/Grandma. Mom said he has slept all day since he got back from the opthamologist, as he put him on Demeral, 2 antibiotics and something else just can't think of what it was. He wakes up and is so frusterated due to the pain and not being able to see, can't even go to the restroom by himself. I just pray the swelling goes down sooner so he can use his sight and there is no infection and no/minimal loss of sight that surgery can repair. Kevin had put in for vacation for this whole week so he was already off work but is hoping his company will use his medical as a paid leave of absense so to say and save his vacation time for when he can enjoy it. I told him not to be worrying about that now, just work on staying positive, though it's has to be so hard right now. His job stuff can wait, this can't. Thank you all so very much for your prayers, positive thoughts and comments on recovery. My Mom is about at her breaking point with everything that has happened in the past year, she so just needs everyone to be in good health so she can relax and take a breather! Dad has been having issues from his stents and now this. I better stay home and not get hurt, she would kick my butt if I did, lol! Last edited by erino77; 07-27-2008 at 02:23 PM. Reason: add | |

Donating YT 7000 Club Member | I'm so sorry. Never feel bad asking for thoughts and prayers - there are some things in this world that we can keep giving away no matter how much gas costs! I sincerely pray that he makes a speedy and complete recovery and that he is able to cope with the future. PS - My brother's name is Kevin too. And we had a sister (she was stillborn) named Erin! How funny!

My little Shadow Donating YT Member | Sending for yr brother, Kevin! I know this must have happened so quickly. I'm glad he had his cell phone right there & was able to think quickly to call 911. So scary! Pray that the medicine can comfort him as much as possible & a speedy recovery.

| Sending prayers for your brother that he will not have any permanent damage. What a horrible accident. Sounds like your family has had it's share already. I'd tell them not to do any racing. |
