First off and most important, my mom is doin great, She has pretty much regained all of her memory and her personality is almost just the way it was, she is just happy to be alive. She has optic nerve damage in her left eye and cannot open it or move it normally, she can see through it though. But it doesn't seem to bother her. It went from an unservivable accedent to havin my mom back. She is doin so great I just can't say enough about it!! It really is a miracle. And all of your prayers made it happen. All of u are like family to me and I love this place. I really do. I just hate it that I'm not the youngest anymore lol. I really liked bein the youngest. I was 12 or 13 when I found the board and it was the coolest thing ever, I missed more school because I stayed up talkin to zeke and other hambers then I was ever sick. Now I am 18 and am living by myself and workin at a chevy dealership, I just bought a snap on tool box that cost more than any car I have ever bought lol. I just ran outa room and the tool box was cool lol. My life has changed dramaticly in the last 6 months, I didn't know if I could take it but I had to I guess.Anyways cars rule, my moms doin great, and this place still kicks ass, ttyl.

So very glad to hear your mum's on her way back!
I'm sure in no small part to her toughness and your devotion.

You've been growin' up fast it sounds.

Hope it all works out in the end....
And you get a neat car going!

Cheers

I have told her that people everywhere around the world have prayed for her and the Hamb was a major part of it, she almost cried. She said thanks. That last three word sentence really means alot if you read into it. She SAID thanks....

I remember when you first posted about your mom's accident. It was really a downer and you about at your end. Its amazing how far she (and you) have come since then. Just keep on looking ahead and praying (like many of us here have). Keep being strong for your mom she has still got a long road ahead of her.

Spudnik, I am so happy that your mom is getting better. I thought about you just the other day and I am glad you checked in. You went from being a good kid I met some years ago and now I can see how you have turned out to be a good young man. I'm proud of the way you have handled this Cole, someone with less guts would have fallen apart. You and your mom and the rest of your family are in my prayers.

Hey Glad to hear that Spudzman,

I wish I still had my MOM. I don't mean to get all Religeous and all but I remember one thing my Mom used to all ways say when she would see us sad when she was in the hospital was " C'mon don't get cowardly on me" " Remember Philipians 4:13" "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me"

It always helps me when I think of this.

Take care of her you will only have ONE MOM in your life...

Still in our prayers....

GREAT!! Spudz......you and your Mom have been through a lot this year. From the start of this, YOU have handled it as well, if not better, than most "adults." Life doesn't always work out the way we want it too. This time we were ALL lucky. Your Mom is lucky to have survived, you are lucky to still have her and WE are lucky that you felt close enough to this rag-tag group of motorheads to open your heart and share your feelings with us. Thank YOU and your Mom for allowing us to care. This is what it's all supposed to be about..........
You done good son. Keep us posted and a wonder-full Holiday to you and Mom......
