Ron’s Story

Site created on March 15, 2018

I am starting this web page for my father Ron Franz (aka "Big Ron"), so I can keep everyone updated on his condition & progress. As well as uplift him as he struggles to recover...Please scroll all the way down to the bottom of this page to the "Thoughts and Well Wishes" section. You'll see a box to leave a message, words of encouragement, memories you have of him, photos etc.. Remember to click on "Post Well Wish" when you are done:)

My father had an accident on Sunday March, 11th 2018 when his gas grill exploded as he pushed the ignite button. When the paramedics arrived they said it was a miracle that he was even alive..He was flown to the University of Birmingham Trauma and Burn Intensive Care Unit (TBICU).....I will Update Daily!!

In the meantime, I appreciate your prayers , support , words of hope & encouragement. Thank you for visiting♥️

Big Ron continues to do 3 hours of Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy & Speech Therapy daily...He actually asked if he could stay longer today... Pretty impressive!!! He is very motivated and a fighter!! He still has a great deal of swelling, which is a sign of healing & a normal side affect. Please continue to pray for healing, physically, mentally & emotionally. His body has been through a great deal of Trauma & he is going to have a Very difficult recovery! God is An Amazing God & Good All The Time!!! I love my dad sooooo much!! I can't image my life without him...I am forever thankful for everyone's prayers...He's my miracle man💓
