Short update: Heather moved out of ICU yesterday after 18 days. She's in a nuerology unit now. Her eyes have been open at times. Therapy is going as well as we can expect. Chase is home and is out of his neckbrace. He's doing as well as can be expected. I appreciate all the thoughts and wishes. Hopefully we'll be moving on this week.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you daily tec71.

Story update on KCCI website Family: Mom Involved In Ankeny Crash Out Of Coma - Des Moines News Story - KCCI Des Moines Sounds like good news.

 

[tec71]

Yes she has been out of the hospital since Thursday of last week at On With Life in Ankeny. It is a fabulous place, and she is doing better. She has a long ways to go but not a short time to get there (yes that's an 80's reference) so we'll just take our time. She was classified as out of the coma this week.

TEC i placed my mom at On With Life. I could not be happier with the results. She went in in a wheel chair, could not lift her head up. She left walking out the front door. I hope this for you and your wife. This is very emotional to post but i have said since then, angels are real they work at Own With life.

Smokey and the Bandit came out in 1977. Just a small quip to lighten the mood here. :smile:

I knew I missed the date on it. You win!

This is one of those times when resurrecting a thread is a good thing -- a really good thing.

Good news for tec71's family and all who care about them, and more evidence that we all can help others in a variety of ways.

Many, many kudos for choosing organ donation. That list of who your family helped is staggeringly amazing. I wish your family only the best. :notworthy:

 

[coachdags]

Tec, you and yours have shown compassion, courage and strength beyond belief. Your family continues to be in my thoughts and prayers. May God bless.....

 

[VeloClone]

At least 10 people saved. I have to commend you for making such a decision at your absolute worst hour.

 

[azepp]

Tec, I can't imagine making the decisions you've made and having the courage to face the pain you've faced. I am humbled by your selflessness and the gracefulness with which you have handled this situation. Thanks for providing such a great example for all of us.

 

[Aclone]

Prayers on the way...

 

[InCytful]

Tragic story, though at least some good came from this. My prayers are with your family. Thanks for the update.
