Hello all,
First and foremost I want to thank you all on behalf of myself and my daughter for the outpouring of love, prayers, and cards, etc... If anyone ever thought this site wasn't the best thing that ever happened to the internet then they are sadly mistaken.
Kristyn will be entering a rehabilitation center that will focus on the physical and emotional therapy that she will require as it will be a tough road for one tough girl. When I say rehab it is not a "rehab" but a recovery for medical patients that require special needs such as speech therapy and the like. This is good news as she is on the road to recovery. She will remain there from 4-6 weeks and then HOME BABY:00hour :00hour :spotting: :em71: :mj05: .
I know that she and I would not be here in this state without all the prayers and love sent our way. I think about what could have been sometimes and then a card comes in the mail or she makes some incredible progress and I forget about everything and remember how blessed I am. I still remember when she took me to her senior prom as her date. She won't quit, she won't give up and it is amazing to me to see that strength of character and I am just so ............. happy I guess that she sees that there is a light at the end of all this and she gets closer every day. Soon she will be able to return to a life that I know she had thoughts she would never see again and I am truly at a loss for words to express how I feel.
As for the paper, there are local crime reports and such however I or she has to sign a waiver to let her name be released and there was no way I was doing that.
Again, our thanks and most humbled appreciations to the best group of folks around, I will keep you updated.
Very quickly, the nurse said to me the other day that when I leave (had to get clothes food etc) that when I return and am walking down the hall towards her room they could turn the lights out because I am beaming and when she sees me here pulse rate jumps. Hug all your little ones today people. Young or old, mad or happy, nothing ever feels better.
Much Love,
FDC
Book,
I wanted to tell you that I am truly humbled and grateful for people like you and you especially. I bet Kristyn would love to see the beauty of Utah so you never know we may just take you up on that but I want you to know that you are an exceptional man..............from the bottom of my heart I thank you for your kindness.

Hello and again thanks to all!!!!
She continues to have a positive outlook. All things point to a full recovery and as I told her, time heals all wounds.
It has been incredibly therapeutic for me as well as Kristyn. Many thanks from Kristyn and myself.

Thanks for the reminder and thanks for the update on Kristyn and...yourself.don't forget to hug those that are close to you whenever you get a chance.
Hello and again thanks to all!!!!
Wanted to make a quick post and get some sleep. Kristyn is doing much better and I actually saw some spark returning to her eyes today as she has been more active, not always voluntarily, and has been blessed with many prayers and cards and gifts. The plan is to move her some time next week, if all continues to go well, to her rehab facility. Apparently they are very much in demand and very hard to get into but she is not ready to go yet. She has little or no memory of the event and is struggling with her speech and some of the simple motor skills. She continues to have a positive outlook and loves all her cards and teddy bears and is responding well to all the treatments and has developed no new infections. All cat-scans are looking good but there is still some inflammation so we can't get too excited or too down. All things point to a full recovery and as I told her, time heals all wounds.
I cannot thank you all enough for letting me come on here and unload all this stuff on everyone. It has been incredibly therapeutic for me as well as Kristyn. She said something to the affect of that she didn't know I had so many friends and I had to remind her that none of the cards and gifts were made out to me!!! I hope that God blesses each and every one of you and that someday I can return the favor.
Many thanks from Kristyn and myself. Goodnight all and don't forget to hug those that are close to you whenever you get a chance.
