Injured in St Thomas

Allure of the Seas 9/18-9/25--- If anyone knows the names or contact info of the men who pulled my husband out of the water in St Thomas and the passenger EMT to bandaged my husband on the dock, I would like to personally thank them for all their help. I thank God you were there and May God Bless you all for your help! My husband is improving after multiple lacerations and fractured bilateral mandibles.

So sorry to hear of your husbands injuries and glad he is on the mend.

I don't know how to answer your question, but sorry to hear about your husband!! It sounds like he is doing ok, thank goodness! I hope he has a speedy recovery!

These are the people you actually sailed with and you may have better luck. Very happy to hear your husband is ok and he had a guardian angel with him that day.:)

PS.....I took it upon myself to post it for you. I hope you don't mind.

Friends who are still on Allure told us about this last week while on the President's cruise. So happy to hear that he is doing well. My friend did have some photos of the boat and dock.

Such a frightening experience. Good thoughts for a full recovery.

Thank You. Would love to see the pics!

Hope your husband is doing fine.

Your good wishes and blessings will always have a way to reach the ones they are intended for. I call it karma.

I surely hope so. They were his Guardian Angels that day!

Sorry to hear that. I hope your husband quickly recovers.

God bless you! Yes, He has a way of placing people where they are needed. :)

I am glad that your husband is improving and there were people who helped him in St Thomas. If you don't mind my asking, could you briefly tell us what happened. If you would prefer to keep it private, I understand. Best wishes for a full recovery.:)

We were going on an Excursion to St Johns, on a ferry. The Ferry did NOT put down the gangplank. We had to step from the dock, over water to the boat. I had to take a big step to get over the gap. I got on the boat, turned around and my husband was falling in the water.---? The boat moved further away from the dock!? Obviously no one was paying attention to him getting on the boat. I screamed. HELP HIM, HELP HIM! He was underwater and I couldn't see him--Horrifying!! Then he came to the surface with his hands up and 2 men pulled him out of the water and onto the dock. Apparently he had hit his chin on the dock going down, fracturing both sides of his jaws and lacerations on chin and inner and outer lip. It was a nightmare, but it could have been much worse had the boat moved back closer to the dock etc. We are very thankful for that! Needless to say, the cruise was over and had to fly home from St Thomas!

That sounds horrible. I'm glad to hear he's recovering.

Wow, that is just awful! Thank God for the men who were able to get him onto the dock. You must have been terrified.

I hope he heals quickly and you are able to book a replacement cruise in the future. It was very thoughtful of you to post to try to find the people who helped.

Wow. That does sound painful. I'm glad he's recovering (and I hope he's able to eat OK)

Prayers to you and your family. what an experience and glad your husband was helped. I get very nervous getting on one of these ferry boats when no gangplank...yikes...please take care

Thank God for those men! I know this had to be an awful scare for you. I hope his recovery goes well.

Wow, that hurts reading that. So happy that he was helped & taken care of. I can only imagine how frightened you were for your husband.

Hope your husband has a speedy recovery and you find the men that helped him. So you can thank them in person.

That must have been absolutely terrifying. Glad to hear your husband is doing better.

Oh, my goodness! How terrible! Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
