My cousin

So my cousin Jason Graham was in a horrific car accident on Sunday afternoon. It was him, his wife and 10 year old son in the car. A flatbed tow truck drove through a YIELD sign and plowed into them. Jason's wife Mandy and son Chris both had minor injuries, but Jason was air lifted to London hospital in critical condition. He is now in a coma like state fighting for his life. The driver and passenger of the tow truck, scratches. WHY? Why is that the way it always happens. The person who fucks up and breaks the law is the one that walks away. I'm currently not wishing ill will on those people, I don't have anything left, everything is going to positive thoughts for my cousin that hasn't awaken yet. The doctors have run tests on him and I have heard (since I live way the hell over here now) that he has responded so some of the brain stimulus. Which is good, progress is progress. His spinal chord has 2 breaks that could mean if/when he wakes up he might be paralyzed. Which would be awesome, at least he is alive. He makes his living with computers and would be able to continue after I'm sure A LOT of recovery and rehabilitation.
Jason is one of the strongest people I have ever known. He has gone through a lot of tough shit in his life and for once he has been doing really good. He went back to school and got his degree and has been doing really well. His wife Mandy is great. She is a little nutty, but has really grown on me and the family. They have 3 kids Jesse, Matt, and Chris. With everything going for them they really need their father and I know if anyone can come back from this it's Jason.
I don't pray, and no I'm not making this into any kind of a debate, but if you do I ask you to throw a prayer in there for Jason to pull this one out. If you don't pray then send some good thoughts out into the world. Every little bit helps. Sorry if I keep going on and on.. .I can only clean my house so much before I had to find something else to do with my hands. Thanks,
