DRN member needs your thoughts and prayers
A good friend of mine, Mark Shuler, was severely injured today while racing the GNCC Harescramble event in NC. He was life flighted out after sustaining a neck injury as a result of going over the bars. He is currently experiencing partial paralysis in his hands and has no feeling in his legs. They were taking him to the MRI when I spoke to another buddy that is with him (Stumpy) just a few minutes ago.
I pray the paralysis is only temporary. Your thoughts and prayers are certainly appreciated.
Scott

Thanks guys, I really appreciate your thoughts and prayers as I’m sure his family does.
The MRI revealed a broken 5th vertebra, however, the hospital staff would not reveal anything further until his parents get there. I intend to leave in the morning to go see him and I’ll post updates as I am able.
Thanks Again,
Scott

I saw your friend wreck today. I was about 50 foot away from were he wrecked. It looked like his front wheel got caught in a rut and he went over the handlebars. It was a very scary crash. I was telling my wife when I got home that I would like to know how he was doing.
Our family will pray for him. Please keep us up to date on how he is doing.
