Father-in-law is awake and somewhat coherent. But the blood clots remain in the heart and brain. The blood clot is in the Anterior Celerbral Artery http://www.med.harvard.edu/AANLIB/cases/caseM/mr1_t/025.html. Their still trying to figure out how the multiple heart attacks happened. Really no change other than they don't have him sedated any longer. Still in very serious condition. We had to head back to Pocatello tonight for work and our kids.

We plan on going back up Friday Lord willing if he's hanging on. You have to leave it in Gods hands. Were going to take our trailer and stay in the 10 camp site that the Hospital provides. If anyone wants to run early in the morning on Saturday and Sunday up in SLC let me know.

Running note: I did run 10.12 miles this morning at an overall 7:10 pace in 1:12:34 but the hip pain wasn't any better after two days off. I think God is telling me something this year.

Sorry to hear about your Father-in Law.

From Rob Murphy on Tue, Aug 24, 2010 at 09:51:53 from 205.127.70.66

Hey Kory - Ann called Monday and checked up on your Father In Law. They removed his breathing tube right? That's good news. Strange thing with strokes and brain injuries though. My wife his been working in Neuro ICU's for almost 20 year. It's definitely the final frontier of medicine - the area of practice most likely to mystify doctors. With strokes, you just have to wait it out and be patient and hope the brain heals.

I hope you can continue some of your focus on your training. With us runners, running is not a trivial thing in our lives right? I know in my hard times that running is even more important.

I'm planning on running the half up in Pocatello - maybe hoping to match strides with Jeff for a few miles. Maybe I'll see you there?

Please Pray for Kory. He was hit by a truck today and needs prayers. Thank you!

I spoke with Rachelle today and have you in our prayers! I am so sorry for all that your family is going through right now and if there is anything we can do we are here for you.

God bless you Kory (and your entire family)!

Hey Kory, just read a little about the accident. I hope everything is going to be ok. I will be praying for you buddy.

The Lord be with you and your family.

Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul. Psalm 143:8

From Tom on Thu, Aug 26, 2010 at 22:40:11 from 67.199.180.90

I'm so sorry to hear about your accident but also so inspired by how you are handling everything. Kim and I will add our prayers to the many being offered on your behalf. God bless you and your family.

Wow what a response I'm truly blessed with a lot of running friends. Took my first 10 steps in the walker today and it didn't hurt. I'm off pain medication. The physical therapist was amazed with my determination. I will be moved to the 5th floor today. I actually had solid food's this morning. Porridge it was good a vault zero. Its hard typing this on my Motorola android phone. I Don't have my laptop yet.

Walter - how long did it take You to recover?

Thanks all for your prayers.
