My stepbrother-in-law had an accident. It was at the construction site where he works. Nobody knows what happened. It appears he tripped and fell, but we can't imagine how he fractured his face and skull and broke a collar bone just by falling down. The trauma to his head is severe.
They said he opened his eyes yesterday, but was still unresponsive.
If you have any energy or prayers you can direct to Dave and his family, it would be appreciated.

Thanks you all for your thoughts. The doctors say he is in good condition (relatively speaking). They hope to take the tubes out tomorrow. He moves a lot, but doesn't respond to verbal stimuli.
A doctor said he has an irregular heartbeat, but that that wouldn't cause him to pass out. Two other people say it does, though. One of those people says he's seen it happen, and when the person passes out it's like a switch goes off and they hit the ground hard.
Dave landed on his back/side and has multiple skull fractures and the broken collarbone. My dad says he may have hit a curb.
