tyler tyler....
so its been a little bit of a long month... as many of you know ty was in a serious climbing accident. i havent quiet known what to say about it all, so here is a quick and dirty version..on may 17th, ty, myself, will and adam made a weekend trip down to indian creek for some climbing. long, long story short, sat morning ty was on a pretty difficult climb, the climb was thin, small and ty couldnt quiet make it to the chains when the fall happened. a piece pulled which resulted in ty falling 50 or more feet and hitting the ground. adam ran for help, will and i held ty thinking of what to do. luckily there were a few climbers on distant walls that heard the screams, came running and helped save tys life. a few of the climbers had been EMT trained, one man was on search and rescue, someone had a satellite phone who had called for help, needless to say these people knew what to do to keep ty with us until the life flight came. 3 hours later ty was flown to the grand junction hospital and stayed for almost two weeks. many family members and friends were able to make it down which was so needed, dave made the flight within 20 min of my phone call and was there so give a blessing just before ty went into surgery. how forever grateful i will be. tyler is quite lucky, came out of the hospital with many broken ribs, broken clavicle, scapula and a few staples in the skull. his lungs were both punctured, collapsed, bleeding and now after fighting pneumonia for the past ten days he is feeling much better. ty has a ways to go on the road to recovery but is strong and already back to work.. my husband is here with me and life is good. thanks for all the prayers, phone calls, flowers, food and messages.. we love you all and couldn't have asked for more loving family and friends. here is a pict of ty in the ICU, looking pretty banged up. one of the people who was there that day took a few picts of the whole accident, i will get them up soon.
