Valerie Fowler hasn't added a story.
On December 7th, 2013 Hunter, a fifteen year old child, suffered a spinal cord injury during a wrestling match. Initially he had no feeling from the chest down. After five days in ICU he has been transferred to the Shepherd Center in Atlanta. The Shepherd Center specializes in spinal cord and traumatic brain injuries. He will remain there for 6-8 weeks.
While we do not yet know what the future holds regarding Hunter and his recovery, we are hopeful that he will one day walk again. And whille we have medical insurance, many other unexpected costs are being incurred and continue to stack up. For example: We had to pay $1400 up front out-of-pocket to transport Hunter from Huntsville to Atlanta.
As we are a family of faith, we ask first that you pray for peace and calm for the entire family. Our entire world has been turned upside down during an otherwise joyus Christmastime. Second, we ask for prayers of healing for our little man. We have a long road still ahead with many uncertainties and your thoughts and prayers alone mean a great deal to us. Next, please continue to reach out to Hunter via calls, text, ,cards, letters, email and social media. The interactions that we have had breath life into us all especially Hunter because it motivates Hunter, gives him hope and keeps him connected to the world rather than feeling isolated. Please visit the Facebook page "Prayers for Hunter Garstin" for ways to reach out. Last, we ask that you give what you can to assist financially. Even if you can't give please continue to pray. Prayers are being felt and are being answered. Thank you for continuing the journey with us. May God Bless You All.
