I seen this on another forum!!!.........
Hello, all, I am Frank's sister and I feel that you would want to know that Frank and Teresa were in a serious accident today. They were riding their scooter and (from what I understand at this point) a semi passed them and the wind shear pushed them off the road. They were taken to Lakeland Regional Medical Center and are in the Trauma Intensive Care Unit. Teresa has a broken arm and was taken to surgery tonight. Frank's injuries are quite serious. He has broken ribs, both lungs were collapsed, his shoulder is shattered, he has head trauma and didn't regain consciousness until late in the evening. He is on a respirator. Frank's daughter, Melanie, is in Colorado and has been frantically trying to make arrangements to fly to Lakeland. She will be flying out tomorrow morning. Teresa's sons, Jeff and David, and their wives are on the road at this point on their way there. Thankfully, I was able to make Buzz Loughin and he has been a read God send!! He got in touch with three couples from the campground and they rushed to Lakeland. Sue Miller was actually able to see Frank and relates that he really "looks rough!" Buzz has also been kind enough to arrange for Melanie a place to stay there as well as someone to meet her at the airport and transport her to the hospital. Jeff''s wife is a nurse and Jeff is in school, working on his nursing degree. He has been in constant contact with a very kind nurse in the Trauma ICU who has been very good to keep them up to date on matters.
Please keep them in your prayers!!
