Alex makes huge strides tonight!
Alex woke up on his own tonight! He had been medically paralyzed, and the doctors were planning on waking him up tomorrow. But he decided he had slept long enough! He opened his eyes, responded to questions by nodding his head, and felt his mom squeeze his arm. From where he was yesterday, this is huge! We will update more as things develop.

When I visited with you today Alex, it was evident that you knew your favorite 'buckeye' from that great state of Ohio was there! So your blood pressure went up a little and the Dr. had to come check your stats on the machine...your mom & I still knew deep down you were happy:) You know I love ya Alex- heck I was there when your little stubborn rear came out of your momma! You were a strong one that day, and you are even stronger now- and that strength is going to pull you through all of this. You all our in our prayers daily. Love,

Dane,
ReplyDeleteAlthough I don't know you like I know Alex, I want you to know that you have been in our thoughts & prayers as well. I had the chance to visit with your mom briefly and your dad today in the hospital. There is nothing more powerful than a parents' love- and they certainly love you. There are many people who love you! Always remember that. Keep fighting Dane!

Alex,
ReplyDeleteThis is Sherri Remund's mom from the great Buckeye State too.We have watched football together so I know you know how to yell.If I recall, you are not a Buckeye fan, but I forgive you.I was on duty in the ED when you came into Dixie Regional after the lightning strike.I am anxious to see you get better and come back and visit us here at the hospital.You are in all of our prayers along with your mom and that wonderful grandma that I have known for nearly 30 years and who shares my name.

Alex & Dane,
ReplyDeleteI don't know either of you or your families, but have been following your story closely since I heard it on the news. I just want you to know that you've both been in my prayers continuously since and will remain there and in my thoughts until you've both made a full recovery. You're young and I'm praying that your youth, the incredible medical staff, and the love and prayers of family friends and complete strangers will see you through this much faster than expected.

I've been missing you both like crazy, the bus has been so lonely without Dane. I made so no one can sit in you're spot. It's there waiting for you when you get back.
ReplyDeleteI hope both you're family's are doing good.
We all know when you get back were having a halo party, so be prepared to get owned!
Get well soon guys.

ReplyDeleteHey Alex i never thought this crazy thing would have happened but i guess it did. You were my first friend in st. george and i am so thankful for that. Your name in my phone is still 'Alex Pink' from when we went to the rodeo and wore pink bandanas. I remember hangin out at your house everyday, we had some way good times. I was thinkin a couple of days ago if you were gonna make it through this and i decided in this scenerio, you are playing Halo against god and satan... apparently you won, i knew you would. You need to get back here so we can go riding, your the one that got me into dirtbikes and taught me nearly everything i know. You are the reason i have the nickname GINGER and a big thank you for that ;)
