Dale Fuhrmeister Update

Here is new news item for you.

I was in a bad car accident Saturday morning as I was traveling between church services in Springfield and Lamar CO. I came to terrific dust storm like I have heard of in the dust bowl days. With visibility basically the end of my hood I was slowing down when I hit the back end of a semi at about 35-40 mph. I was awake enough to call 911 and was transported to Prowers County Medical Center in Lamar CO, and then to Parkview Medical Center in Pueblo. They tell me it took them 30 minutes to get me out of my car, much of which was because of the bad dust storm, and in part because they were trying to get me on a back board before they removed me, since I had back and neck pain.

God has preserved my life, and I have escaped this ordeal with a few fractured vertebrae. One of the rescue workers asked me what kind of car I was driving. After seeing now well it protected me, he said he wanted to buy one (2012 Toyota Corolla). I will likely go home today or tomorrow to finish healing.
