Not sure how many of you are aware of Dennis Prager. He's been a conservative radio host for decades, has authored several books including his current Rational Bible commentaries on the first five books of the Bible, founded PragerU (5 minute online videos), has been involved with the Daily Wire in various capacities, and more.

I haven't listened to his show in a while, but I heard on another show that he was in the hospital. Last Tuesday, he fell in the shower and severely injured his back. He's had surgery and is showing improvement, but apparently the best case scenario is a very long recovery. Public statements have indicated that he has enough swelling of his upper back and neck that doctors won't be able to give a clearer picture until that swelling begins to subside. I don't want to speculate, but nothing about that sounds good.

I used to listen to Dennis regularly, appreciate PragerU's contributions to the culture, and use the Rational Bible commentaries for teaching Sunday school regularly. If you're so inclined, please lift up a prayer for a conservative whose life mission is to spread Judeo-Christian values around the country and world.

Mark Levin mentioned it at the beginning of his show Wednesday or Thursday last week. He is friends with Prager and sounded extremely concerned. He told of the fall, but said he could not elaborate in detail.

Love Prager. This is a shame. We'll pray for him.

Prager is really the first influence along with Ron Paul to really start to help me understand the conservative libertarian idea.

Bummer about his situation. Will be praying for him.

I just saw an episode of Prager University on YT like last week. Where he address being Jewish. He gets asked it all the time so he went over it again. He is an awesome leader in fighting the good fight for the country and for good values. I hope he gets better ASAP

One of my favorite books by Dennis Prager is "Happiness is a serious problem". I highly recommend it. Will pray for him.

I have to say Dennis has a voice and delivery that kind of turns me off. That said WHAT he says is major truth! He is a very wise man that has done major work to educate me and others on principles to lead a happy and productive life!

I will be praying for his recovery

Been praying for his recovery. He's been one of the most important conservative voices for the last 20 years.

Did something change last night? The other Salem radio hosts have sounded more positive about his status this week, including his daughter, who filled in for his show yesterday.

Prager is a great teacher to the masses. I wish more people paid attention to him.

I wonder if he's related to TAMU pitcher Ryan Prager. Probably not, but maybe.

Heard his brother, Dr. Kenneth Prager, recently provide an update. I didn't realize Dennis was doing so poorly. He said he's a paraplegic and is still on a ventilator.
Continued prayers for Dennis and family.

My introduction to conservative talk radio was listening to Prager, Michael Medved, and Michael Savage while sitting on a tractor during the summers of the early 2000s. I hope he makes a full recovery

Just lost a friend in a similar situation. Older male. Fell. Surgery to shoulder. Developed pneumonia. Not a good set of facts for Prager.

Damn. I've enjoyed that man's wisdom over the years. I guess we shouldn't expect him back on the airwaves ever again with this report. Hard to imagine that a "fall" could lead to such a tragic result. May Gods peace be with him during this time of difficulty.
Shoefly!

I have a classmate that her dad fell off a ladder working on a porch light maybe 3 feet he fell. He then whipped his head on the concrete, he didn't make it a full weekend. It's tough getting old!

My wife's aunt has been paralyzed for years due to a fall down a flight of stairs. You never know when it's your time, even in the most mundane scenario.

I try to remind myself everyday when the kids annoy me.
