Steve Sebo, you'd like as your friend, needs prayer

[FourBee]

Hey Men:
I'm grieving over a young Rancher I know, who was involved in a terrible highway accident this morning.    We live in a small Oklahoma town, and  he preaches in small non-mainstream Pentecostal churches in the area.   Although he's a large heavy man, he's full of life, and his preaching shows it.   He also is involved with the High School Ag kids, the 4H boys and girls.

  His pick-up truck was clipped by an auto in the outside lane of a  5 lane highway, sending him clear across the highway into a Semi-Truck, and he was thrown out of the passengers side-window back into the middle of the highway.   They've life lined him, via helicopter to Tulsa. 

Many people of the town was at the Hospital Emergency Room.   We're very much in prayer for him tonight.   Your prayers would be greatly appreciated too.

Update:   Steve is going to make it.   He's banged up pretty bad, and under heavy sedation, but he's stable.   The bleeding of the brain is minimum, so they're not going to operate.    It's a miracle that he even came out of that alive.

Latest UP-Date:
Steve's oldest brother took Steve's hand awhile ago, and in a loud voice began telling him to wake up!, wake up,  and finally he did.  Steve has been heavily sedated and on a ventilator ever since the accident, and hasn't responded to anyone until today.   Don asked him if he knew who he was, and Steve squeezed his hand.

   They found his neck is broken in two places.    Witnesses to the accident have come forward and said he was thrown several feet into the air.    The Town's Doctor and his wife were two cars behind the accident.    They immediately began attending to Steve.   They know practically everyone in the town, as the Doctor is also the Football Team Doctor at every game, and has been for many years.   

The Doctor's wife, Susanne, while working on Steve said that a strange woman came up, and said she knew Steve.    Susanne looked at her and didn't recognize the lady, and asked how she knew him.   The stranger said, " I've known him for a long time.   He's going to be alright."    Susanne looked at Steve, and turned to look at the woman again, and she was gone.    The Doctor's wife said...." I know that was an angel" ! 

One thing for certain is - this man is proof that miracles do happen.    Thanks for your prayers

A sense of relief is in the air.   They removed Steve's ventilator, and moved him from the Trauma Unit to Intensive Care.   They got him out of bed to stand for a moment.    He has a broken shoulder, a broken neck, and a broken vertebra in his back, and 3 broke ribs, and slight bleeding on the brain.   However; they are not going to operate.?    His brothers have been transporting their elderly parents the 120+ miles one way every day to be with their (46 yrs old) baby boy.

  Lots of visitors    
Steve's alert and talking.   During his recovery, they've had to drain fluid off his lung.   They're hoping they can remove the drain tube today.    Thanks for your prayers, he's still got a ways to go yet.

  Doctors said:   Unless something comes up over the week-end, Steve will be able to go home the first of next week.   He's up and walking.   The gouges and scratches on his head have all but gone.   Looks like this one will be a happy ending for the family.  

Don't know why I felt obligated to keep the post updated, but won't have to after tonight.  Thanks be to God things turned out good for Steve.

See Ya

Update:
Steve went right back to ranching and preaching for awhile, then his health took a turn for the worse.  Now, after 4 years from the accident, my friend Steve went into a comma.  He only weighs 100 pounds because of cancer.  They nearly lost him a few days ago before he lost conscience , and now they've given up all hope, as they only give him 3 more days.  Pray for his little wife, and family.
He is a true friend.

Steve changed residence at 8:30AM this morning.  He's now at rest in heaven with the Lord whom he's been preaching of all these years.
