…that I am more than happy to grant.
Kurt Blake is a 14-year-old boy who suffered a severe head injury on March 8, 2008, during a skiing trip to the Porcupine Mountains in Michigan. He was airlifted to St. Joseph’s Hospital in Marshfield, Wisconsin, where he remains in critical condition.
Kurt’s still comatose at the moment, but he has regained some respiratory effort and reflexes, although he still requires mechanical ventilation.
You don’t have to be a parent to imagine the emotional devastation this has wrought on his family as they watch a formerly healthy, athletic young man struggle for life in a PICU bed.
If you’re of a religious persuasion, please pray to the deity of your choice for this young man’s speedy recovery. If you don’t pray, good thoughts and warm wishes are also welcome.
In any case, stop by the blog and give ‘em some support, okay?
