Latest update on Indiana dairy producer Heath Penick

Many of you remember the recent story about Heath Penick falling from a 60-foot silo. We thought we’d keep you up to date on his progress and ask for your continued support and prayers for the entire Penick family. It’s going to be a long journey for them, but it sounds like things are going in the right direction.

Thanks to Sara Long for keeping us updated!

Last Tuesday, Heath had surgery on his leg and arm and was doing very well. The next day, doctors let him rest in preparation for a series of surgeries on his face and feet. On Tuesday of this week, he had surgery done on his feet and heels, with a scheduled 5-6 hour surgery today to work on his face. Evidently all the bones in his face were broken, so surgeons need to put in quite a few plates and have the assistance of an oral surgeon to realign things in his mouth.

    To Heath and his entire family.

    I wish you the very best and know that you will recover quickly. My prayers are with you and your family.

    Although you may not remember me, I remember meeting you through Max Dunseth, HA field representative. I have always admired your eye for great cattle and your love and desire along with true success on breeding, developing and showing the “great” ones!!!

    Warm wishes for a speedy recovery.
