Prayers for Pyxis

Playa · 03-19-2004, 09:35 PM

Please everyone put him in your prayers for a speady recovery.

He was stung by a LTA an hour ago or so.
Hand full of stings from the Anemone that he just got today from a friend. His arm and past the elbow is numbed. He has extreme pain in his shoulder and I mean extreme.(was on the phone with him until the ambulance arrived)

Ambulance picked him up about 30 minutes ago.

He is in NC State, near Camp LeJune.

Not much of a prayin man, but I'll certainly keep my fingers crossed for his recovery. Sheesh, and I "play" with my LTA & hand feed all my anemones 3 x weekly. I don't think twice about getting my hands or arms right in the midst of them. I know some folks are more sensitive to them than others. My friend, Whodah came up last weekend to help me with some of the maintenance I've been unable to do, and got stung pretty good by one of my rose BTA's. He'll be o.k. in a day or so, of that I'm sure. Maybe anemones & the other stinging critters aren't for him if he's that sensitive. Just a thought.
