richlittell Posted August 10, 2009 Report Posted August 10, 2009 Hemi or anyone else, My son, a Marine, is in training in camp pendleton. He was playing some sort of stupid game with his buddies and got hit by a train -- no kidding. He is in a medically induced coma. Broken leg, ribs, brain trauma (but the docs think he'll be okay in the long haul). At any rate, I'm over here in Taiwan, and need someone to help me figure out how to get some priesthood assistance. My son is in a Hospital in San Diego. I think without family assistance their isn't much that can be done till he wakes, unless the military allows chaplains to take on that task (I hope)--Hemi, maybe you know something about that. At any rate, responses here on the board are fine, but if you need more information like which hospital, his full name and stuff, please send me an email. (I know how to check my email here, and to reply, but couldn't figure out how to send a new email to you Hemi). thanks Quote
john doe Posted August 10, 2009 Report Posted August 10, 2009 Have you contacted the base chaplain? He may know of some LDS Marines (or even a chaplain) who might be able to help out. Quote
pam Posted August 10, 2009 Report Posted August 10, 2009 Rich send me a pm with all the info. I have lots of contacts in San Diego that could assist with Priesthood type things. Quote

Hemidakota Posted August 10, 2009 Report Posted August 10, 2009 Contacted the Branch President over SOI [part of the MCRD Military Branch] and left a message to determine what is your son's status. Waiting for a response. It is currently lunch time here in Cali. Quote
Hemidakota Posted August 10, 2009 Report Posted August 10, 2009 Called the Carlsbad California Stake to determine what they know...no return call yet. Quote
Guest missingsomething Posted August 10, 2009 Report Posted August 10, 2009 I'll pray for him... I know thats not what you asked, but Hemi - you may want to add his name to the temple prayer list. Quote
Hemidakota Posted August 11, 2009 Report Posted August 11, 2009 Actually, I want to do something greater than that if it be the Lord's will.... Rich send me a good number by PM, branch President will contact you today. Quote
