Mom posts daily updates on facebook.  Our community is honoring her request  for prayers and not questions for details at this time. Injury is very serious; surgery was deemed successful. Large community wide prayer event was held at the school last night. Gym was packed with locals and other school's representatives. Now all you can do is wait and see how his body reacts and recovers. One detail from yesterday is that he was placed on a ventilator. This is common for spinal cord injuries in the area above where the breathing muscle nerves leave the spinal cord. Continue to pray by name for Micah McClendon.

May God Bless this young man, his family, teammates, coaches, and this community. General, your initial post made the hair on my arms stand up as many don't understand why we all love this game so much. Very well said. Praying that God's Will be done during this time and above all else that he get the Glory of it all!

    • QUICK UPDATE -  First, I see a lot of wrestling names that I recognize on that GoFundMe.  THANK YOU so much for helping this family.   After the long surgery on Sunday morning to repair his neck, Jacob suffered a collapsed lung.  Sometimes this happens after long surgeries.  They had to put him on a ventilator to get his breathing back on track.  He came off the vent on Monday morning and they put a BIPAP on him to help control his breathing.  As of today, Thursday, the BIPAP came off and he is breathing well on his own.  He is working towards drinking a glass of water and hopefully eating some solid food at some point in the near future. Jacob can "feel" when someone touches his legs, but there is still no movement.  His parents are beginning to prepare for him to be moved to the Shepherd Center in the next few days.  He will be there in Atlanta for 30-45 days.  Im sure he will receive excellent treatment. Please continue to pray for healing for him and if you are so moved, please contribute to the gofundme link above to help in any way you can.  The go fund me is doing well, but this is going to be a very long road for these guys Im afraid.. Thanks again! Sells
