update as I know it

Hey all:

This is truly horrible news. My heart is broken for Chris and his family.

I just got off the phone with Chris's mom. She said his spinal injury is either C5-C6 or C6-C7. The doctors have said he will never walk again due to permanent spinal cord damage. He has no movement below his chest and minimal movement in his hands. My understanding is Chris is already talking about hunting. I told his mom to tell him he is welcome in my camp at any time.

I also understand he is in a very good spinal injury hospital and rehab center.

Also to Kyle -- I'n not sure which Kyle but the one who sent Chris the bow. He wanted his mom to let us all know he did kill a doe with The bow you sent him. She also said he took a 6 point with black powder gun before his accident. He was on his way hunting when he wrecked. She said he thinks he blacked out because he has no memory of it. She also said he was a careful driver and always wore his seatbelt. I promised a prayer for him from the mountain top around the campfire next week in Colorado. Chris my young friend I wish you were still going to be there with us.

Clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose.

Chris, my friend, I wish I could be back "home" with you. This is nothing more than a test which you will succeed and come out stronger than ever before. I am honestly at a loss for words. Knowing you, your heart, desire and drive this is nothing you can't handle. Keep your head high, know you have support with friends, family and Realtree. You will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. You have the number when you need it. I am thinking about all the conversations we have had over the year and I can't stop freaking laughing. Goodtimes! And we will continue to have them.

Yes, this news is very heartbreaking. I shed some tears on reading it knowing that my young friend will never be able to do what we take for granted anymore. Thoughts and prayers from here for you, Chris. It will be a hard road, but be strong and keep your head up. Continue to be the fine young man you are despite the hardship.
