Update on Sean. Ally finally convinced him to go to ER to get checked out. He is very sore and has muscle weakness on right side and feels like he was beaten up and ringing in ear. Ally captured picture of lightning strike on his back and ER dr said it is the classic look of a lightning strike. EKG is good, doing blood work now and pumping fluids- and will be checking kidney function soon. Dr said his weakness will go away and ear ringing will go away. Giving him some meds to help with muscle knots. Thank you everyone for your kinds words and for echoing the advice he should get checked out- told him he was very lucky as the strike traveled through skin instead of internally - which would have been a much different outcome!
