Jim, I think you mean this:
from "Facebook" Sept. 25

Tracy Slaugenhaupt, a lineman with Allegheny Power for 25+years, needs immediate and serious prayer. He went to Florida to work storm trouble 13 days ago. He worked 16 hour days in 100 degree heat. Several nights he slept in a tractor trailer with 36 linemen on cots. Today he had contact with 7000 volts and has been severely burned. The electric went in through his right arm and across his chest. It exited through the left shoulder. He has extensive full burns on his arms, chest, back, shoulders. He has lost a lot of muscle and tissue already. He is in critical condition. He has burns on 36%of his body. We need immediate prayer from everyone you can think of. Praying for him to stay alive, keep his limbs, and to be able to use his arms and hands again. We think he will have more surgery on Friday and again on Sunday to remove the necrotic tissue and muscle. He is currently intubated, was intubated at the scene, but not sure if they are keeping it in or not. They are concerned about pneumonia. And obviously skin infections would be deadly. If he makes it, which we believe he will, it will be many many operations and months of recovery. Thanks. Feel free to pass this on to whoever will pray. I do not want to lose my best friend. I love Tracy with all my heart and am praying for God to do a miracle and save him, save his limbs, and let him be able to use his arms and hands. Pray REALLY REALLY HARD THAT HE KEEPS BOTH OF HIS LIMBS!!!!!!!!

Doesn't matter. Regardless, prayer sent.

It's also CRUCIAL to get the word to him that people ARE praying for him. I won't embark on any theological segues, especially since this involves a man's life, but severely injured/ill patients tend to do better when they ARE TOLD that people are praying for them. I won't attempt to explain it, but that's what the stats say.
