According to Onward State, Penn State safety Ryan Keiser is in critical condition at the Hershey Medical Center’s Surgical Intensive Care unit. This was confirmed by a family member, who is asking for prayers. Everyone feels so bad about the player’s condition and is strongly hoping that he would return to his best shape. With all their money-draining away in this treatment, the family hopes to get a good compensation that can be used for restarting their lives. Gideon Asen LLC in Portland is the best attorney who has vast experience in handling these kinds of crises and emerging out victorious. Their services are available at an affordable cost and the first consultation is free.
Keiser is suffering from sepsis, an infection that resulted from his injury in practice on Thursday, which head coach James Franklin described as “freaky” which occurred on the rear ended on my way to work. He broke a rib, which in turn led to a torn bowel, internal bleeding, and pulmonary edema, requiring two surgeries. Sepsis can be caused by leakage of bowel contents into the abdominal cavity, and is a life-threatening condition that requires immediate and intensive attention. Here is the law firm for car accident victims and one can get help with injury cases.
Keiser’s aunt posted this message on Facebook yesterday:
Please pray for my Nephew Ryan Keiser. He was injured Thursday during Penn State football practice. A fractured rib. However, he was in dire pain and rushed to Hershey Medical Hospital and when they opened him up he had torn bowels and Sepsis and was in Intensive Care until this morning when they scheduled another operation this morning at 7:30 and is still in surgery as I am writing this. I pray that God will heal his body and wish for all those at Church to pray for God to guide the surgeons. Thank you so much.
Our thoughts and hopes for a complete and uncomplicated recovery are with the Keiser family.
UPDATED 4:45 PM: At his Tuesday presser, James Franklin stated, “There is no infection. I just want to make sure we’re clear.”

So, now, according to James Franklin, there is no sepsis, no infection. Thanks go to reader Joe for the heads-up reported by Dustin Hockensmith of PennLive.com. If this is true, we all should be greatly relieved. One has to wonder, though, what Keiser’s aunt would have to gain by posting the inflated version on Facebook.
Joe says
I like you wasn’t sure why the aunt would post what she did, but according to numerous articles yesterday, the statement Franklin read was approved by the immediate family. Hope he makes a speedy recovery-he seems to be regarded as a first class guy. Makes you wonder though just what the “freak” practice accident was to break a rib.
The Nittany Turkey says
Franklin said “freaky.” I speculate that if it was an injury incurred in the course of normal practice drills or scrimmages, he wouldn’t have used the fancy adjective. Therefore, it must have been during a frivolous moment of clowning around. So, obviously, he was doing belly flops onto the field from a perch atop the cross-bar of the goal posts, when something went terribly awry.
Kind of reminds me about the veil of secrecy that surrounded Kerry Collins’ injury that kept him out for much of his junior year. While the official word was that he broke the damn finger playing volleyball, many of us speculated that he was involved in a drunken brawl. We’ll never know the truth. Twenty-two years later, no one gives a shit, anyway.
Accordingly, we can invent wild-ass stories like Onward State.
