Popular Post Siouxperfan7 Posted December 30, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 30, 2019 Here is the latest update from Hunters mom. Continued prayers needed. katpinke Day two update: Nathan and I are sitting by Hunter's bedside as he rests. For three days, he is on strict bed rest, laying flat, healing from his spinal and back surgery. He sits up slightly 3x daily to slowly eat. He also is keeping up with football scores. His favorite to hear was the Dolphins beating the Patriots today! I also read him your comments, messages, and texts and if you don't hear back from us, just know your encouragement and most of all, the prayers are life-changing for Hunter. After tomorrow's day three of rest, we're praying for more positive progress and have some ideas of the next steps on the long journey ahead. Specific prayer requests: 1. Stabilizing his vitals to allow for next steps in his recovery 2. Comfort and pain management 3. Miraculous sensation in his lower extremities 4. The ability for Nathan and me to get some needed rest tonight 5. His medical team 6. To keep focused on the next thing and not worry about the future. We have more praise than we can list. Hunter has his mind, hands and arms, an ARMY of prayer warriors (that's YOU!) lifting him up for miraculous healing and people showing up for Hunter and our family in so many ways. We don't understand WHY this severe spinal cord injury has happened to our son but in the midst of trying, difficult times we see God's greater plan unfolding. Yes, we are sad. Yes, we want to wake up from this terrible dream. Yes, we want to trade places with Hunter. This is our reality now. Hunter isn't going to run out of this hospital. Something BIG is happening though and we feel it. God can take tragedy and pain and use it for good. When you're in neurotrauma ICU, you see patients and families with much worse circumstances than you. Today two strangers in the hallway asked to give me hugs. They shared their story and I shared ours. If you look for God's love, you find it. It's everywhere. I plan to get more organized in our #hunterstrong journey updates with a blog and FB group soo and will that here when ready. THANK YOU for your prayers, support, kindness, and love. 3 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siouxperfan7 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 There is a Facebook group dedicated to Hunter now. Just search for #PinkeStrong. They are going to be selling t shirts with this logo and the verse Hunter picked out that is going to be his motivation thru all of this. 100% of the profit going towards Hunter's medical costs. More information tomorrow on how to order them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post WYOBISONMAN Posted January 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 1, 2020 I made the post that had the GoFundMe link sticky over on Bisonville because I know folks over there will want to donate. Things like this just are hard to understand. My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family as well as with the other boy. Awful hard to understand why. If any of his friends or family sees this let them know that everyone is thinking and praying for them. 2 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Sky fans and players have also contributed. Very heartwarming to see the outpouring of donations and prayers. 3 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siouxperfan7 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Here are the links to purchase #PinkeStrong t-shirts, decals, and newly added wristbands. All proceeds go towards medical expenses for Hunter. Latest update from yesterday is Hunter is now out of the ICU and on the Neuro floor of the hospital. Recovering there until he will eventually move to the Craig Hospital which is one of the best in the coutry for spinal chord injuries and rehab. As always, keep prying for Hunter. https://pinkestrong.myshopify.com/?fbclid=IwAR3L1yzzDCVl7ph8t39YxzqALKIPjrSwEHffp46c2jpl4meHmWYizBFaWWI 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck, why stop there.....I hope to see Hunter WALKING across the field before the game with his parents on Senior Day!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
