"Anthony's Angels"
Anthony is a young man with a bright future ahead of him. He is in his Senior year at Minnesota State. He is looking forward to graduating in the spring with a communications degree. We know that this is not going to deter his future, his grit and determination wouldn't allow it. His supportive family and close knit group of friends have rallied behind him and will be with him every step of the way. Not only that, but he has 2 loving dogs that can't wait for him to come home.
On September 8th Anthony was celebrating his 23rd birthday when he tragically fell 25 feet. He sustained life threatening injuries to his brain that left him fighting for his life.
It's still too early to determine the full extent of his brain injury, but the road to full recovery may take months. The biggest concern at this time is the swelling and bleeding of the brain along with skull fractures. Please pray with us in this area for continued healing.
We're a family of strong believers and know the power of prayer. We know that Anthony will pull through this, he has always been a strong and determined young man. Please join us in prayer as "Anthony's Angels" and help him fight for a speedy recovery.
In the meantime, he will have some very real financial needs. If you would like to donate a monetary amount to go toward his bills, medical expenses, getting back on his feet post hospitalization, etc. it would be very much appreciated. We thank you in advance for your prayers and generous support.

8 days ago our world stood still. "Anthony is fighting for his life". The weight of those words can't be carried. They're a mother's worst nightmare. 8 short days ago the future of Anthony was still unknown by doctors. There were no clear answers, only guesses, estimates, and statistics. There are times in our lives when all we believe in is put to the test. When you fill a sponge with water, and it's put to the test (squeezed), water comes out. When you fill a life with faith and the belief that God is a Healer, and He can work ALL things out for good, and it's put to the test~hope, peace, and strength are released. Thank you Jesus for the brilliant team of doctors and nurses caring for Anthony at the best hospital in the nation, but thank you even more for filling in all of the guesses, estimates, and statistics with a promise.
Anthony has left floor 8D! Tonight, he was officially strong enough to be moved to a neuro general floor to begin brain rehab. They will concentrate on walking, speech, and memory, among other things.
He has already begun to make progress. He can sit up on the end of the bed, and use the bathroom. He's able to walk with a podium and gait belt. He puts on deodorant (multiple times a day :)), feeds himself solids, and tries to charm the nurses into getting him out of the hospital. LOL! He continues to grow stronger every day.
There are other areas we are continuing to pray for. He still gets pretty confused and struggles with short term memory loss. He doesn't understand why he still has to be in the hospital.
Please pray for Anthony's web of thoughts to become untangled and for his short term memory to improve. Thank you immensely for your continued love and support!!
