Black & White Wednesday

Buchanan, Va



Last night my daughter was telling me that a school mate of hers that graduated this year was very badly injured over the weekend. He was riding a train car that was carrying tons of flat steel when the steel shifted, crushing this young man and his dog. His dog was killed and he was pinned for over 8 hours. Dr's had to amputate his foot to free him and he may lose his other leg. His mother has set up a foundation to help pay for his medical expenses.

I am going to link to the foundation if anyone would like to help out.

The David Frame Foundation

  2. That's such a shame -- one never knows when something like this will happen. I hope he is doing well mentally over this.

  3. This is a beautiful, melancholy b&w, but so sad to hear of your daughter's friend. How lovely you are sharing the foundation info. (A former colleague also found himself in a terrible accident 3 weeks ago - innocently walking his dog on a sidewalk in broad daylight and hit by a drunk driver - he's still in a coma, his leg amputated, & the dog did not make it...so this hits close). I too hope the young man gets through this OK.
