This is Aaron

Aaron was in a terrible accident on May 13, 2001. He had been drinking and
was driving home when he missed his turn. Attempting to cut the wheel, his car rolled
and threw him through the windshield. His head hit the pavement causing a severe
brain injury and almost completely taking off the heel of one foot.

He was in a coma for nearly 6 weeks. The pressure in his brain so high causing
it to swell terribly. After the first 2 weeks the Doctors had almost convinced his
mother it was hopeless and if he did survive he wouldn't know anyone or anything.
While trying to make a decision, his pressure started coming down on it's own. And he
slowly started making small progress.

Aaron has just recently stared talking. Very soft words because it takes so much energy.
He is writing some, not real good but he is writing! And he is in a rehab that involves the help
and therapy of a golden retriever named Bailey.

Aaron still has a very long road to complete recovery.
But I think he can and will be successful. Thanks to all of your thoughts and prayers.
I am so grateful to have found people like all of you. I also want people to look
at Aaron and see what can be the result if we drink and drive. I know I have rethought the past
and found how very lucky I am to still be here.
So please show Aaron to everyone you love and tell them to rethink it before getting behind the wheel
after drinking! This is something no parent ever wants for their children or anyone they love!
And remind them how important it is to Always wear a seat belt. A lot can be avoided!!
