May 12th - Day 86

-

Brian is officially transferred to rehab! The transport went seamlessly, Layla got to see him and kiss him before he left & I just got the call that he had therapy at 8am and will have two more one hour sessions today. I get to go see him whenever I'm ready, so I'll be headed there this afternoon to get settled.

Please pray for his medical team, therapists and specialists assigned to his case. Please continue to ask God to wake him and restore him completely. Brian was built for hard work. He is optimistic. He is joyful. I pray he wakes up prepared and determined as ever before. Thank you, Lord for your protection & healing thus far. Thank you for unimaginable strength and peace. Thank you for every person you are surrounding me with to keep going. Thank you for blessing Brian and I with a love like the love in 1 Corinthians. I pray you return the promise of our marriage & future soon! Amen!

"We HOPE for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently..."(Brian's full recovery).
- Romans 8:25

We have been home from Texas for about a month now. We are doing our best to continue the 4+ daily hours of therapies that we learned at NeuroSolutions 3-5x a week. Brian continues to improve and make gains. His wakefulness throughout the day is longer, he's getting physically stronger, his head control & tracking is excellent, he has new responses to commands, and stem cells will continue to regenerate for up to 6 months. Dr Crawford would like to have us back by end of year for round 2! I had the great honor of sitting and podasting with Dr Brandon Crawford while we were there. You can watch and/or listen here: WATCH: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFF-3RYJXG0 LISTEN:   https://www.drbrandoncrawford.com/podcast/episodes/strength-in-silence-the-unspoken-journey-of-tbi-caregiving I have zero regrets about getting Brian to Austin for the treatments.

NEW FUNDRAISER INITIAVE: Brian's Journey to NeuroSolutions in Austin, TX

-
Big news! Brian has been accepted into Dr. Brandon Crawford's clinic, NeuroSolutions, in Austin, Texas. He wants Brian for a minimum of two weeks to begin treatment, so we will be making the trip down this spring (late March). We have appreciated all of the continued financial support that has helped us to make Brian's recovery as comfortable and as efficient as possible. I've used funds to purchase and renovate a beautiful, ADA / accessible home, obtain state of the art equipment to make his care easier and functional, bio-hacking devices to aid in his day-to-day healing, insurance on the handicap van, and to 'keep the lights on' since I am still unable to work or be reliable enough to obtain a job. Arguably the greatest gift of all is the opportunity to stay by Brian's side and continue to search for solutions to help him heal and emerge so we can have him back fully. Thank you *all* for making it possible. I don't think I will ever had adequate words of g...

Court Hearing // My Impact Statement

-
Image
There is no sentence or judgment that can be made that will change where we are today or what we have been through. The judgment today will not bring Brian back. So - I’d like for you [Angel]  to listen to how your actions have impacted our lives. Today is a day I’ve dreaded the most because it is forcing me to look back. To grieve what once was, and to relive the most painful and scary moments of our lives. It pains me to have to do this today, without Brian whole, when deep in my heart I hoped and believed he would be the one to speak today.  Before I share how the crash has affected us, I just want to say to Brian, that caring for you and speaking for you has been my greatest honor. You are not a burden to me or to any of us who care about you. The things I'm going to share are difficult to communicate but important for the court to hear today. The things I share are to help convince the court that you receive some measure of justice for the joy stolen from you in your role...
