Some people survive and talk about it. Some people survive and go silent. Some people survive and create. Everyone deals with unimaginable pain in their own way...August 24th is by far the worst day of my life; it's still so hard to understand. Beefy, I love you so much, and miss you every day.
Today was hard, you relive every hour and remember what you were doing until you got the call that changed your lives forever.
That morning Ethan had come to the barn to help me feed the horses like he always did. This time he had Sarah and Beemo with him. I was a little surprised, because Sarah wasn't allowed at our house anymore, and I thought Beemo was in jail. He was happy when he left, and told me he would clean his bathroom before the girls came over for dinner that night.
I was at the barn feeding the horses when Robby came over and said there were police and an ambulance at the house, and that Ethan was unconscious. We needed to get home right away. It's hard to work through what the rest of the night was like...you don't know pain until you see your baby boy's body leave in a body bag, and that is how you say goodbye.

I think Hunter had the best idea today; he was going to spend the day celebrating Ethan and he and Alicia were going to do all the favorite things E loved...and ending the night by making a blanket fort in the living room and watching Pirates of the Caribean.

Someday soon, I hope I can approach this day as a celebration of your life and just remember all the good times, not the one really bad time.

If you know anyone that is struggling, please attend our event tomorrow at 3 pm at Tomball High School.

Fly high, my baby boy; you are still touching so many lives today.

One last picture from the 4-wheeler wreck - this is the square tubing where his face hit...the SPLIT square tubing! We all knew he was hard headed - BUT!!!

Feeling so grateful today...Kenny is out mowing - something he has wanted to do for a while.
Feeling thankful for all the people who reached out and continue to reach out to check on his progress...he's doing great! Special thanks to the show secretaries and managers, judges and friends who have reached out to him...he really appreciates all the cards!

And thank you to Susan and David Turell for the amazing cake that said "THANK GOD" on the top! So, this is what is left of that cake, and it was sooo good!

TEAM KENNY UPDATE!!!

We had stitches out on Monday - and that hurt; especially when they rubbed alcohol across the open wound! We changed blood pressure medications, and hopefully that will help with the crazy ups and downs.

Tuesday, we saw the Neurosurgeon who gave us a really good report. He showed us the latest pictures and explained to us what was happening. The top pic shows the bottom of his brain and brain stem. (Side view) The highlighted white areas show the damage to the ligaments in his neck. He has to remain in his neck brace until 2/20 - his next follow up appointment. But the end is in sight! Hopefully he can return to normal light duties at that time.

The bottom pic is a top view of his brain. There are two small white dots - one at the front of his brain and one at the back - this shows that the brain bleed is being absorbed, as it's supposed to. The white dots are the bruising from where his brain hit the front of his skull, then slammed against the back of his skull.

Kenny said this is what happens when you chase a parked car! He said he thinks he'll stick to horses from now on. Hotrod never would have let him run into the back of parked truck!

Thank you again, for all the prayers, texts and calls. It means a lot.
