So last Friday my 15 y/o son is at our hunting club with my father in law. They are the only 2 there when around noon my FIL has a heart attack (he’s ok and back home now) and so my son has to rush him to the hospital in Hamilton. After my son gets him into the ER and fills out the paperwork he calls us back in b’ham and of course we leave work immediately pick up my MIL and are heading to Tupelo MS where they will be flying him by helicopter.
My son calls his 18 y/o cousin to leave work and come get him from the hospital so we can go straight to Tupelo. So we get there and they have him stable and we are just waiting to see what course of action they are going to take when we start getting pictures on our phones of a damn deer that our child has now shot because well, he had nothing else to do.
After watching his Grandfather be airlifted in the helicopter this kid goes back to the club and shoots, skins, and cleans a deer by himself while waiting to hear from us!
Now that my FIL is ok and back home I felt comfortable sharing this somewhat funny redneck story. Honestly couldn’t be more proud of him for how he handled the situation, just didn’t expect to get pics of the deer while we were at the hospital.
