UPDATED: Please Pray for Ricky Mansfield and All Those Involved in Texas Bus Crash

UPDATE on my son Ricky as of 9-30-20 10am:

We were able to speak to Ricky’s nurse this morning. His name is Luke. Cindy said, “Isn’t that great? Luke was a disciple of Christ and he was the doctor!! PTL!”

Ricky was in surgery for 15 hours yesterday until 2:00am this morning. They worked to reconstruct his pelvis, abdominal wall, and left elbow. He has several lacerations all over his body as well two fractured vertebrae, L3,L4. They decided to let the vertebrae heal on their own. He is on a ventilator but are going to try and wean him off of the ventilator later today. They are also weaning him off of the sedative and he is responding well to verbal commands.

Please pray that his oxygen levels will be high enough when they remove the ventilator so that they will not have to put him back on it.

Brianna was released from the hospital today after being treated to removed glass and road debris from her legs.

Cindy, Ashlie, our family and I are so grateful for all your love, prayers and support throughout this ordeal. God bless. Thank you for your understanding when we can’t respond to every call, text and inquiry. We love you all so much Richard & Cindy
