From Facebook on Jul 2:

"Prayers, hugs and uplifting thoughts needed for my sister in law, Rebecca, her husband, Tim and their daughters. Yesterday afternoon Tim collapsed in their yard and was found not breathing and unresponsive. After continuous efforts to resuscitate him, he finally started breathing again when they got to the ER. He is now currently in a medically induced coma and on hypothermic protocol while they assess his condition. They will begin to wake him up at some point tomorrow and from there will determine what the next step is. Please send uplifting thoughts to Tim, Rebecca, their kids and his doctors during this time. There’s not much else they can do at this point, but they can feel the support! Many thanks!"

There have been numerous updates since then. The latest as of 8 hours ago:

"For those asking about an update on my brother-in-law, Tim:

Many prayers and well wishes are still needed please! Today Tim was transferred to University of Tennessee to their neuro ICU unit. On Tuesday they tried to take him out of sedation and he didnt handle that well, so they sedated him again and brought him out of his hypothermic state.

After cardiology evaluated him, they determined his heart was not at fault for his collapse. He was then able to get an MRI of his brain and CT of his chest. As far as I know, his CT came back with no significant findings, but the MRI of his brain had abnormal findings.

They are currently weaning him off of his sedation again and he seems to be handling it much better. The next step is to determine his brain function, so please pray for better than expected results! Even with something as simple as a reflex reaction, Ive been told he is reacting more than expected, so thats great! It is seeming to be a VERY long road ahead for Rebecca, Tim and the girls, but your support and thoughts are much appreciated! Thank you for all the prayers, thoughts and check-ins on their behalf!"

==============================

And why we need him back . . . it's way too early for him.

"As a Christian, here is my response."

I don't care. Today's Christians are too caught up in demanding our rights instead of fighting against injustice, feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, housing the homeless, ministering to the imprisoned. We give more and more energy to demanding our rights and over-cheering in the faces of 'opponents' instead of taking up the cross and living at a great cost and sacrifice to fully sell out to God. That is my response.

"The authority of government, even such as I am willing to submit to — for I will cheerfully obey those who know and can do better than I, and in many things even those who neither know nor can do so well — is still an impure one: to be strictly just, it must have the sanction and consent of the governed. It can have no pure right over my person and property but what I concede to it. The progress from an absolute to a limited monarchy, from a limited monarchy to a democracy, is a progress toward a true respect for the individual. Even the Chinese philosopher was wise enough to regard the individual as the basis of the empire. Is a democracy, such as we know it, the last improvement possible in government? Is it not possible to take a step further towards recognizing and organizing the rights of man? There will never be a really free and enlightened State until the State comes to recognize the individual as a higher and independent power, from which all its own power and authority are derived, and treats him accordingly. I please myself with imagining a State at least which can afford to be just to all men, and to treat the individual with respect as a neighbor; which even would not think it inconsistent with its own repose if a few were to live aloof from it, not meddling with it, nor embraced by it, who fulfilled all the duties of neighbors and fellow-men. A State which bore this kind of fruit, and suffered it to drop off as fast as it ripened, would prepare the way for a still more perfect and glorious State, which also I have imagined, but not yet anywhere seen."
