Dad Mahin took a fall December 18th.

Friday, December 18, 2009, my dad, Duane Mahin, fell due to icy conditions. The senior agency van that provides daily transportation to dialysis had lowered it's 'handicap ramp' but it did not reach all the way to the sidewalk like it often does. The little bit of hard packed snow that laid between the ramp to the sidewalk was too slick for dad; so he fell, but only to his knees. He was able to walk the rest of the day yesterday, but today he is not walking at all. When he ventures out of bed it is only with a wheel chair. Mom is keeping him in bed till he is stronger and not feeling so sore.

Naturally we are hoping this is only temporary so please keep him in your prayers.
