I'm so sorry to hear this.

All,
First off a huge thanks and respect to all of you that gave support in any form. A lot going on lately with Randy. He will likely be released from the rehab hospital this month to go home but will be an outpatient for quite some time. Remarkable recovery from where he was when he entered the ICU after his accident. Randy is still primarily wheelchair bound but has been able to walk more and communicate with people. He says he remembers people and things but has been doing lot of repeating words and pulling up memories from many many years ago like it happened yesterday.
It has also been confirmed by another doctor that the damage to his eyes is inoperable and he will be permanently blind. Many people and organizations have been helping to teach us family members how to support randy as well as make his house able to support randy.
As stated before Randy is not just a cousin and is a Brother to me. He always will be a very important person in my life and our family will be there for him. This is definitely overwhelming and tough to accept the huge change and financial devastation this has brought to his wife but Randy will continue to live life and be loved by family.

This will be my last post providing Randy updates but will respond to post or PMs if anyone would like to know the status. I want to stress to everyone to live life and love family and friends to the fullest because time is the only currency of value in our existence so invest every second like it's your last.

Semper Fi, God Bless and ride on!

Chad

Thank you for keeping him in the forefront, on his condition, and his progress. You, sir, have been an inspiration for us, in your positive attitude towards Randy, and as hard as it must have been to report the bad news, you did it all with love and respect. I will continue to pray for Randy, but you as well, because I could always tell, that this relationship between the two of you went way beyond the distant family connection. Let Randy's whole family that we are sending all our love, prayers, and good thoughts to them, and may the Good Lord continue to hold them all close, and remind them, that He has always loved them, and always will. Thank you for your dedication to them as well to us, in keeping us informed. Lord bless.
