  2. Spudz,
    She's already done more than they expected, so she'll just keep doing it...it'll work out.
    Take care.

    Cole, I remember meeting your mother and seeing how well you two got along together, some real love there my friend. As I read your post and things looked darkest I could feel the emotion building in me. What a relief that she has been so strong in her recovery thus far, and I sincerely pray for her and for you that she continues to get better. I am going to let Randaddy know so he can contact you. I am too far away to be there physically, but spiritually I am right beside you Cole. You and your mother will remain in my prayers.

    Call me if you need anything 509-371-2743
     
  6. I don't know what to say. I know where you are, unfortunately I've been there. If you need to call anyone late at night I'm usually up til around 4AM. 918-***-****

    If a grumpy drunk answers, just tell him to sober up quick. [​IMG]

    Take care Cole.

    I don't think anyone could ever hit you with anything more painful than what you have just gone through.I read your first post and went cold.Stay strong ,thats the only thing you can do.
     
  11. Cole, I'm so sorry to hear about your Mom's accident. It sounds like she has a lot of fight in her. I know it's tough right now for you, but you being there for her is really what she needs.

    I was just thinking about you when I was browsing the Hokey yesterday. I thought to myself I wonder where Spudzie is. There aren't many OG HAMBers that post much anymore. I'm sorry that the next post I read from you is such sad news.

    I'm praying for your Mom, your family and for you--be strong! Your HAMB family can't be there for you in person, but we're with you in spirit. Keep in touch!

    Spudz-

    3 Months ago my sister died for 6 minutes with lack of oxygen to the brain due to a massive heart attack. She was in a coma for roughly a month and showed little if any signs of any brain activity for the doctors. She was awake and somewhat alert often during the coma and spent a lot of time communicating with our family and myself. The doctors never once saw these great signs.

    We had a meeting after about a month in intensive care and the doctors informed us that she was a vegetable and it was time to begin thinking about "quality of life issues."

    With everyone's positive attitudes, wishes, hopes and prayers. My sister is sitting at home right now chatting with me on a laptop. She walks with a walker, has memory issues, but she rocks and rolls like no other. She's all there and in some ways stronger than before.

    If you'd like to read the entire story I can gladly provide it, it will provide you hope and give you an idea of the things to come and what to expect.

    A doctor's job is to expect the worse, yours and all of ours is to expect the best. My prayers are with you and if there is anything I can help with please let me know. I will extend the same positive thoughts to all those that helped with my sister. I've been through the exact same thing the last few months. I wish I had read this post earlier...

    Keep a positive attitude and be strong for your family.

    -Dane

    you all don't know how much all of this means to me. I'm tearing up as I type this. I told my mom that people all over the world, people she has never even met or spoken to are praying for her. She smilled opened one eye and shook her head yes. She is doing really good. She was moved to PCU "progressive care unit" and we can see her anytime we want from 9am to 9pm. She actually talked over the trake today, she looked down at her arm and the pins in her wrist and said "we've got to do something about this shit". She can't open her left eye. I think her muscle is really weak. Thats where the impact was. The doctors said she was blind in that eye, but guess what... now she can see out of it. She can't hold it open by herself but there is sight. She seems confused. A little disorintated. I'm not sure if she knows everybody. Its like she thinks she knows but isn't sure. But its only been 2 WEEKS!!! the doctors said she has done more than most minor injurys do in a year. She is hopefully goin to go to a rehabilitation place in NC that will really help her. She is doing nothing but getting better so our spirits are high. This IS ALOT to have dumped onto me. I just turned 18 on July 31st. I figure it took about 4 minutes for me to grow up and take on resposibilities when this happened. I just can't say how much all of your prayers mean to me! I've been on the HAMB since I was 12 or 13. And I love you all as family. And if I do shut of the internet, its not forever!

    It's truely amazing how the human body can repair itself with enough positive thinking and prayers. I've been praying for You and your Mom and family every since I saw the first post. They have some of the best head injury clinic's down in the Carolina's thanks in part to "CrashCar".
