Miracles
My brother Bjorn was run over by a DHL truck last night. As he was riding his bike home from school, the truck looked as if it was turning left and swung back for a wide turn right. Bjorn hit the truck broadside and ended up underneath. The back tire went over his stomach area and the muffler burned his legs. There were tire marks on his body. As he remembers it he tried to lift the truck away from his body so his wrists are really sore. The other tire smooshed his bike. He ended up in the hospital and had a number of tests run to see what internal damage was done. After 4-5 hours they could find nothing wrong. Nothing punctured, nothing broken, no internal bleeding. The doctors were amazed. He easily could have died and if nothing else they said his pelvis should have been crushed. One of the doctors asked if he believed in God. Bjorn said yes and the doctor told him that today his life had been spared. How great is our God!

Oh my, we are really sorry to hear about Bjorn, but very happy it turned out as well as it did. I am always worried about large vehicles when I'm on my bike - too many of my friends have been on the wrong side of that situation. All our best and prayers to Bjorn and your famaily.

Wow, that is beyond lucky! God is definitately awesome. A friend from highschool was pinned between a building and semi a little over a year ago, and had some major recoveries to overcome and she did it in about 6 months. So glad your brother is okay with out any complications!!
Wow Megan! So sorry to hear that Bjorn had to go through that, but how amazing that he was spared in that way! Is he recovering at home or in the hospital? Love to him and all the Bagnalls!
