A Prayer For Jonajosa!, Hoping he will survive! Options

[minque]

I am very sorry to have to make this thread but I just got a message from jonajosa´s wife telling this terrible news

My husband "AKA Jonajosa"  Is listed in critical condition right now. The unit he was with got hit hard and while they were able to kill or capture most of them my husband was been injured.

They went into a building to clear it when a grenade rolled out towards them. My Husband got everyone else out of the room and blocked the shrapnel from hitting his men with his body in the doorway.

Medical wise he has lost a foot and has lost also a lot of blood. Im crying as I write this because his chances of survival are only 40%.

She wanted me to tell his friends about this and thus I´m doing it. I´m crying as well writing this.....why I think you all understand..

So let us hope he will be ok and get home safe and sound.

Join me in a sincere prayer for jonajosa...

This is indeed shocking. I wrote a poem for his heroic deads...


What possibility was it,
That our forums could split?
Something so monstrous,
Was surely the thing of nightmares?
Was indeed of our worst nightmares.
And that,
We regarded as fact.
How did it seem likely?
I'll tell you: it didn't.

Upon the forum,
We had fun.
Agreed and disagreed with some,
We posted posts, tonne upon tonne.

We knew life couldn't be kept perfect,
But we shoved that thought down inside.
This virtual world,
Was mine...

What could happen,
That could ruin our time?
Something so ugly, it was misshappen.
And finaly a bell did chime,
Nature's most horrible crime.

Almost a kill.
An injurie insued.
War and deceit.
The truth was not hid from us,
And one was hurt.
One whom we did not meet.

A troubled country,
A dangerous war.
Our hero became the stuff of lore.
He quite possibly,
Sacraficed something of his.
It's irreplaceable,
Yes, it is.
