Wednesday night

Sorry to all that we haven't posted anything for a while. It has been a week with many meetings with doctors and family. Today was an eventful day because David received his purple heart. It was an experience that I will not soon forget if I ever do. I am so very proud of my brother and all the military people that put their lives on the line for our freedoms every day. All military people are heros in my book and I will not forget what each and everyone does for me, my family, and all the other families out there. Matt and I go home tomorrow knowing that David is in the best hands he can be in. With that being said the blog might lag a little behind so as of right now he is still in critical condition, he is still comatose, but he is resting peacefully.
To all the people who are following this know that all the prayers, thoughts, and gratitude that we have received since the crash have been greatly appreciated through this trying time. And if you see a service member walking down the road or in the mall take the time to thank them for what they do. It goes a long way for them to know we care.

  4. I can only imagine how amazing that experience was to see David awarded his Purple Heart. His sacrifices are immeasurable! Sorry to hear you and Matt have to head home, but I know David would want you guys to take care of yourselves and your families too. At least you know you are leaving him in great hands. Continued prayers for David and for all of you!

  7. Wiz,

    We pray for your continued recovery. You if anyone can pull this off. After all the guff we gave you back in the day there's no way this can stop you.
    All kidding aside, you have our deepest respect and gratitude for being awarded the Purple Heart. Keep up the hard work.
    Remember what we used to say "Nothing I'm fine" You will say that soon.
    You are in our prayers.
