Sad news



Dan just called me this morning and, after last nights MRI, they are certain there is brain damage. They are waiting now for neurogoly team to meet with them. As you can imagine, the news is devastating to everyone.

Here is what happened. Ashley had taken Reilly on the 4-wheeler and they had just left the house. Reilly was in his seat belt on the seat next to her. She got out and walked toward the back of the 4-wheeler to adjust something and in that split second, he reached over and started messing with the control and the 4-wheeler started rolling. She saw him do it and was rushing back to the driver's seat. Ashley grabbed onto the bumper and tried and tried to stop it but wasn't able to, of course. There was a little ravine and the front wheel went in that and caused it to tip. Obviously, Ashley (and Sean), but especially Ashley is a total wreck. It's such a tragedy and the whole family is shaken to the core. Dan and his ex, along with the other kids are there and that seems to be helping.

As we all know, life can change in a flash - and it has.

I love you my sweet sisters.
