I would like to request prayer for yet another hunter injured while hunting. He was shot in the head accidently while duck hunting this morning. Not only would I ask you to pray for the young fellow who was shot but also for his best friend who shot him. I don't know the details but both familys are broken right now. Lord in your mercey we seek your touch for the both of them.......Dusty

Amen

Prayers from here...

Words once spoken cannot be recalled, nor the damage erased. Same with our beloved sport of hunting. Any shot, bow or gun, once released, can not be recalled.
Indeed, prayers for the victim and family. You said "injured" so I assume the victim isn't deceased so prayers for healing and restoration.
Prayers also for the shooter and his family. There will be tremendous periods of intense remorse and possible retribution by others.
Prayers for peace, forgiveness and healing both physical and emotional.

UPDATE: They had to go in and put another drain tube in to reduce the pressure on his brain. From the CT they didn't find any lead in his brain but he does have several skull fractures. Still don't have any details on how it happened. Late last night his brain had started to swell but it seems like they have stopped it. He did squeeze his Mom's hand this morning and his pressure inside his skull was at 10. They are going to start the repairs on his skull in the morning. Please continue to pray for both families as they both have a long way to go before this is over how ever it works out.......God it is in your hands.......Dusty

Prayers for both from us!
Keeping the Faith!

Well they are thinking that there will be no brain damage. They are going to put a plate in the place where his skull was messed up and repair his scalp. When it is all said and done he is a very blessed young man. Thank you all for your prayers. My sister told him Mom about me posting here and said to thank you all from the bottom of her heart. Lord you have shown yourself in control again.
-
Thank you Lord for touching this child, may his heart be forever belonging to Jesus.
-
LORD I pray for a complete recouvery!
-
Had 2 buds in Nam that got head shot and had plates... they lived totally "normal" lives after all was said and done...
Thank you, Jesus!

We need to keep the young man who shot him in our prayers as well. He is still really upset and still kind of out of it.
It seems that when the ducks started to come in that Dylan squated down and told his friend to shot. Just as he was tracking the ducks to shoot Dylan stood up into the shot. He fell into the water an had to be fisher out. It was around 30º that morning so now he is wet as well. They had to transfer Dylan to a second boat that was faster and then into another boat before he got to land. What a mighty God we serve. Being wet also saved his life according to the ER doc as it slowed down the swelling that he had on his brain.
I'm offshore now and won't get updates as often but will post them as I get them. Again thank you all on behalf of this family for your prayers.......Dusty

Prayer on the way for both families. I hope they are both back hunting safe soon.
As a water fowler I sure can see how easy and accident can happen with wading around in mud, ice and water, under water holes and sticks to trip, rocky boats, no camo, and a few other things that can cause a problem fast if you are not on top of your safety.
-
Lord take this horrible accident,heal both these men and use it for your glory.Amen

Merry CHRISTmas to you all. It seems Dyllan has had a set back Friday. The pressure in his brain has built up around 36 and they were very concerned. This afternoon it has came back down to somewhere in the teens but they have him in a drug induced coma to allow his brain to rest. I know God has a plan for this young fellow and that we are all a part of it. As much as Dyllan needs our prayers his Mom needs them more right. She is staving by his side 24 hours a day. She has not faltered for the most part but is very close to meltdown. Please pray she will get some rest and that God will give her comfort in this quit possibly the worst Christmas she has ever had. I will call my sister tonight and see where they are tonight and post more soon. God has not left this family to walk alone with this but has allowed us to join Him in this work and to see His power working in this family. We have to unite and lift Dyllan and his Mama up to our Father for comfort not so much for only them but also for us too. WE/I need to see the power of prayer and the work it does as a witness to them as well as to myself. God you said you would never leave us or forsake us. You have never done so but I can't say the same thing. Please forgive me my sins as well as my unbelief when I don't see the results I want to see. Lord thank You for these brothers and sisters who would pray for someone they don't even know because I have asked them too. Lord on this day we have set aside to rejoice in you Son's birth I ask you to hear our plea's for this one and every other who had need in their lives. Father we have nowhere to go except to you with this need. Please show yourself mighty in Dyllan's life and give his Mama comfort in this time of need. Please shine forth your light into this darkest of time in their lives. Shine for all to see your hand on this family, Father we stand on our faith and in the power of your word to us in asking these things.......Amen. Sorry to have run on so and Thank you all for your prayers and time .......Dusty

Well I'm sorry but I have no new news. If the phones out here stay up I will try to find out something today. The weather out here has been a little rough and we haven't had good phone service for the most part. It is like that when you float and bob around like a cork. I will get you an update soon. Thanks for your continued prayers.......Dusty

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Here is what I found out from my sister tonight. They are trying to bring Dylan up out of the drug induced coma but are having trouble with his blood pressure and the pressure in his skull. They are dumb founded by both. They are giving him meds for both every 2 hrs. He is still in the woods and still needs lots of prayer as does his Mama. God has His hand on this whole thing. The young fellow who was also involved in all of this was am EMT so he knew what to do to keep him stable while they were trying to get him out to the bank. The boat they were in was too slow so they transferred him to a second boat but it started to take on water while they were running so they had to transfer him to a third boat. As a praise report I will share that the hospital Administrator is a friend of Dylan's aunt. He set her up with a room to rest in when she needs it. Also Dylan's boss is paying him just like he is working as well. My sister said that Dylan's Mama told her she had a vision that everything was going to be alright one night during a prayer meeting there at the hospital. So your prayers are work. PLEASE continue to lift this family up as often as you think about them. I told my sister how to log in so she could tell his Mama. I want her too see what ya'll are doing for someone you don’t even know. Please keep them coming and thank you for you help.......Dusty

Continued Prayers to all involved.

May "Momma's" vision be true and soon!
-
:pray: I will keep them in my thoughts

Update Time: My sister left me a voice mail and said that Dylan has been awakened and that his Mom got to talk to him for about 10 mins. The Doctor looked at his eyes and they were both reacting to the light the way they should. They had been giving him meds for his blood pressure and his brain pressure but have stopped both. They had to put him back under because he started coughing and they were afraid he would damage his skull. They are going to bring him up slowly again over the next few days. Your prayers are working and his Mom told my sister to thank you all from the bottom of her heart and to keep them coming. I too want to thank you all for your time in prayer as you could be doing something else. I will give you more when I get it.......Dusty

Update: Well it seems like Dylan is still struggling to come back. He is still battling the pressure in his brain and a few other things. He hasn't move his arms or legs sense he got to the hospital. He did move his shoulders and sqeezed his Mama's hand one time. They don't know where he is at with all of that stuff so please continue to pray. He had his 19th birthday there as well. His Mom continues to hold to the vision she had and wants us to continue to pray accordingly. Thank you for your contiued prayers and support. I'll continue to keep you updated.......Dusty

I talked to my sister tonight and it seems that things are not as good as they seem. They have determinded that Dylan has had a stroke at some point and that it is continuing to grow. The part of his brain that was affected from the shot is what controls his heart beat and blood pressure. Today he has started to go down hill and they are not too sure they can stop it this time. Please continue to lift him and his family up anew. They are holding on by their fingernails. Lord in your mercey. Please give us this vision and show yourself strong in Dylan's life today. I love you and praise you for your work here and in Dylan's life. Thank you for your love.......Dusty
-
At the top of the list...
-
Prayers for His will to be done...and that our Saviour wrap this family and the friend that caused this to all be in His Holy love and Grace.
-
UPDATE: Dylan has had another emergencey operation today. What they thought they were seeing as a stroke has now become infection on the brain. They went in and removed the bone that was not healing properly as well as some of the tissue of the brain. His Mama ask for prayer that they have it all and that the skin graft will take this time as they have used all the scalp skin they can. She is holding onto the vision she was given. Dylan as she put it is starting to have to climb the hill again. She also said that he is moving both arms and has and both shoulders as well. Lord please continue to pull them thru.......Dusty
-
I trust that the Lord can do all things.
I had two friends that were head shot in Viet Nam. They had large holes in the skull from the bullet and it had to heal for a year or more till brain swelling went down and a plate could be put in. They both recovered fully and led normal lives, aside from horrid memories from the jungle.
May God's will be for Dylan to make this "hill climb" and show all the Power of prayer and God's Divine Healing!
Lord in your mercy!

Prayers sent for Dylan's recovery and healing and to his family for strength.
God Bless

Continued prayers from here....

Lord, please give this young man and his family the strength to fight this battle.
-
UPDATE: Well as of yesterday the infection was gone and it appears that the scalp is doing well. He had his eyes open and was looking around again. They have clamped off the drain tube from his brain and are going to see if his body will absorbe the fluid that builds up in the skull. If all goes well they are looking to move him to a room today. Now we have to wait and watch the Lord raise him up off that bed to a full life. Thanks again for all your prayers and support. Please keep them going up to our Father who knows all things.......Dusty

Well I'm trying to get some news but being stuck out here in the Gulf of Mexico makes it kinda hard to get news. Hope to have something to report soon.......Dusty
-
UPDATE: Dylan has left the hospital to go to a rehab hospital in Houston Tx named TRIG. It is one of the leading rehab hospitals in the US according to what I have been told. I'm not sure of his mental state but I will call ASAP and see if I can get more.
Thanks for your continued support and prayers for him and all that has been involved with this. Ya'll have been there from the start. God bless you all and thanks.
-
Amazing this fallable, frail and totally wonderful creation of the human body can do when we rely totally on the Maker!
Who'd have thought Dylan would make it to rehab.
His Mother!
Bless her faith and vision and the prayer support for all here for this young man!
Lord in your Mercy, continue to be with Dylan!
-
Dusty-May God bless your friend that was shot and may his friend be blessed also. We had this happen a couple of years ago in our family and it was very sad. The guy did survive but it sure was stressful on all who were involved. Godspeed to both families.
Kenny :pray:
-
UPDATE: Dylan is talking and moving all his parts so far. He is in the same rehab hospital as the lady senator who was shot in the head. He is progressing as well as can be expected. His Mama is very greatful for all the prayers and ask that we keep them coming. I too thank you for your time and efforts for this family.......Dusty

Praises to the Lord for such good news on Dylan!
According to His will, may Dylan come to full healing so he can testify to God's grace and love!
-
All glory to God :thumbsup:
-
UPDATE: Well Dylan had needs that nobody knew about that have been brought to light. He had not exceptd the gift of salvation and eternal life. From overhearing his Mama and someone else talk the rapture he told his Mama that he was not ready for that to happen. His Mama was able to share the gospel with him and he now has a new heart. His Mama has shared that his whole demeaner has changed and he is now a whole calmer and relaxed. He is responding to his treatment better as well. Who would thing a shot to the head would lead to a new heart. PRAISE GOD for HIS GOODNESS. Continue to pray for this family and thanks again for your support.......Dusty

Wow... not a prescrption for mission work, but yes, Dusty, it is amazing that such a trial and tribulation would lead one to come to realize that indeed, we can not do this on our own!
Prayers for continued growth in Christ, a renewed heart and a regained level of body and mind function for Dylan!
