A friend could use prayer !

Post by 6pt-sika »

Danny Patton a Parker guy that also owns a few Fox guns and is a heck of a stock guy had a massive heart attack Friday morning while in Wisconsin on his annual grouse hunt . He was of course hospitalized and almost immediately put in a medically induced coma . On Tuesday I was told he was moved from ICU to the critical care unit and still in the coma . But I was also told the plan was to bring him out of the coma yesterday or today . Anyway he can use prayers thoughts etc . Thanks !

Just got the latest on Patton ! He is awake and acknowledges . He however has a tube down his throat and can’t talk . So it sounds like he’s on an upward track !

I was in that situation three years and two months ago. I had drowned, had been on a ventilator for about two weeks, had been "weaned" from it, and had a breathing tube down my throat. I couldn't talk or swallow. It was miserable, to say the least. A couple days later they pulled out the tube and I immediately could speak and swallow. I'm 100% recovered now, with zero after-effects. Keep praying. God is still working and He still works miracles.

Got an update on Patton today ! He is out of the hospital and in a rehabilitation facility still in WI . He’s talking fine and walking pretty well and from what I understand the physical and occupational therapy are going well . I was told he’ll most likely be there a couple weeks before they think about letting him head back to Virginia . Anyway this is all a step in the right direction !

Great news.I'm happy to hear Danny's doing better. We lost Louis Proffit a tough old Marine who was at the frozen Chosin in Korea this week. He was a founding member of Virginia waterfowlers association.

Glad to hear Mr. Paton is progressing forward. I’m sure he’s itching to get out of rehab/WI and head back to VA.! Let’s hope the plan for him to travel later this week stays on track!

Got the latest straight from the horses mouth a couple minutes ago ! Patton told me the doctors are telling him he may be able to head home this Friday or Saturday . But he sounds in good spirits all be it a little tired . But all in all I’d say it’s all be a steady upward progression !

Just a little update . Patton called me yesterday and we talked about half an hour . Anyway he sounded good , he said he didn’t feel 100% which is to be expected . And of course he gets tired fairly easily . He also told me he’ll start therapy here next week I believe he said . But he sounds in a pretty good state of mind all things considered .
