Life With My Soldier

I would like to ask everyone to PLEASE be praying for my brother's best friend Jon. Yesterday was a pretty sad/uneasy day for our family. My sister called me yesterday morning and told me that my brother's best friend, Jon, was in a motorcycle accident and they had mediflighted him to OKC, and he could possibly be paralyzed. I told her if she heard anything let me know. I hung up and prayed. My dad called a couple hrs later and told me basically the same thing, except by then he had been told that he had cracks in 3 of his vertebrates. My sister called me back a while later and said that my brother had called my dad and was crying so hard (my brother and Jon have been friends since before Jr High) he had to hand the phone to the preacher (who just happened to be up there visiting someone else, and ran into my brother) so he could tell him that Jon was paralyzed and the dr said he didn't think he would walk again. I told my sister that drs are often wrong and that we just have to keep praying. They said that my dad was going to die when he had liver failure, and the dr sent him home so he could die, and it's been 4 years and he's alive and kicking and his liver is functioning just fine. I called my brother to check on him, and he said that Jon was in really good spirits about everything, which I think is a very important thing. I believe attitude has a lot to do with how well a person fairs in any situation. Well, I didn't talk to my brother long because he was in the room with Jon, and I didn't think it would be appropriate to ask a bunch of questions with him being right there, and my brother is not the type who likes to answer a bunch of questions anyways. Well, I found out a few other details from my mom, but then I texted my brother's gf and asked her exactly what happened to she called and told me the following story:
Jon and a couple other guys rode their bikes to another town, about an hr from where we're from. They had a few drinks and decided to go home. One of the other guys took off somewhere else, and Jon and the third guy rode together. Well, when they got closer, the third guy turned off to go to his home, and Jon kept driving. Well, a deer ran out in front of him, he swerved to miss it, got the bike under control, but then hit a bump and ran off the road, hit a sign, and from where his bike was laying he was 30 feet away. It was around 3 in the morning, and a guy getting off work from an oil rig was driving by and seen the headlight from the bike in the ditch, stopped, seen the bike and then went looking for him. He found him, called the ambulance. They took him to the hospital, where they checked him over, and then mediflighted him to OKC. He had actually cracked 9 of his vertebrates, one of which a piece broke off and is now floating in his spinal column, which is the reason he's paralyzed. He wasn't wearing a helmet, but thank God he didn't sustain any brain damage. He blacked his eye, knocked out several teeth, has a partially collapsed lung, a bruise on his kidneys (they don't know if the bruise is from the accident or because he had just passed kidney stones), and he dislocated his leg. He was paralyzed from his belly button down. The drs said they can't say for sure what will happen, they said they're not God (I'm glad they know that) and that only time will tell if he'll walk again.
My sister called this evening and told me that my brother went back up today, and Jon already has feeling an inch lower then he did yesterday. THANK YOU GOD! I know that drinking and driving is one of the stupidest decisions that you can EVER make but we are praying for his full recovery and for this to be a learning experience for both Jon and everyone else around him. So, if you could all be praying for him, Jon, his family and my family would be very appreciative. Thank you!
