At his follow-up appointment at the Watson Lake Hospital on Thursday morning, the doctor diagnosed a partially collapsed right lung. He gave Arvid the go-ahead to begin driving home provided he would stop at the ER in Fort St. John for further follow-up.
We did that today. Doctors there said there has been a small improvement.
Upon learning of the crash, a donor emailed us immediately instructing us to fly home on their dime. Having been cleared by the doctor in FSJ, we will fly home tomorrow, Saturday. Travelling on bumpy roads for many hours at a time is not conducive to recovery.
Please pray for safe journeys for all of us; as we fly and as the crew is on the road home in the vans.
