Instagram Post from Kollin
Got to sit in a chair today!
Chelsea (Aunt) posted the same picture on instagram but on hers said:
We took Gary and Jodie some dinner tonight and were excited to peek in on Kollin for a minute. I'm happy to report that despite being on a ventilator he seemed comfortable. He was writing on his whiteboard a lot, watching TV and anxious about his snap chats--which sadly I had no idea how to work!!! Lots to be thankful for. :) #prayforkollin

Thanks for doing this blog it helps alot. I was just wondering what hospital kollin is at and if he can take visitors. My friend and I want to come visit him!! He is such a great kid and my heart goes out to you guys. Hes one of the funniest kids we know and we miss him like crazy!!! Haha
ReplyDeleteDear Galland family,
ReplyDeleteMy niece follows Kirsten Krason's blog. In Kirsten's "roundup of everything that was loved last week" she mentions Kollin's blog and that is how I found my way here.
No two injuries are the same, yet we know a bit of what you are going through. My husband sustained a spinal cord injury in July of 2009. Although we are strangers, if we can share one piece of information - please take special care in choosing a rehab hospital. Choose one that is known for their work with spinal cord injury. It does make a difference.
With you in prayer ~ Connie & Mike

Jodi-
ReplyDeleteI was going to wait and get you this information later but after reading the post above I decide to send it now.
Working with Nitro Circus I got to love boy named Tanner Godfrey. (spinal cord injury) He worked closely with Neuroworx in South Jordan. Dr. Dale Hull experienced a trampoline accident as well and now he is running Neuroworx. He personal would like to talk with you when you are ready. I know it is early still and everyday seems so long but when you are ready you need to talk with him. (call Chad) Tanner was told, as well as Dr. Hull that they would never walk again thru Neuroworx both walking again. I will send you their links.
I am thinking of you always. Much love to you all!
Joy
Dr. Dale Hull (google him and tons about him comes up)
