Dear Friends, Family, and Community,
Some of you know that this past January, our sons, Chris and Tommy were involved in a horrific accident returning to Flagstaff. Chris was driving and as he came around a curve on the highway (around Munds Park) was surprised by a herd of deer crossing the road. He swerved left, went into the soft median and then over corrected causing the vehicle to cross back over the highway and slammed head on into a rock cliff. The impact slammed the vehicle back onto the highway, where it was struck by a tractor-trailer rig, traveling 75 mph. Chris has recovered, but unfortunately, Tommy fractured his neck (C-6, C-7 spinal cord) and is now a quadriplegic.
Tommy is now paralyzed from the chest down. He has very limited use of his arms but not his hands or wrists. We are hoping that with aggressive therapy, Tommy’s work ethic and his relationship with God, he will regain as much of his abilities as possible. The years of playing football, especially those at Arizona State, have prepared Tommy for this battle. Tommy’s attitude is positive and thru intensive rehab he is determined to become as independent as possible.
