Former Vol baseball and VFL here.

On Sunday my wife took a nasty fall down our basement stairs. I was in Florida and had to rush 9 hours home. She went to the hospital and got staples and stiches. Her CT was negative and was diagnosed with a concussion.

I took her back Wednesday because I saw changes in her behavior. I'm a RN and this is probably making it worse in a way because I'm watching every movement and I'm nervous as hell. A repeat CT was negative and she saw a neurology who says she has post concussion syndrome.

We are in the ER again because of more and different symptoms. She is back now getting a CT. Can't get MRI because of staples.

I'll be honest and tell you I'm not the most religious guy. But I will ask that everyone keeps her in her thoughts and if prayer is what you believe in, pray for her.

*Update* Neurology cleared my wife for home. He wanted an EEG because he thinks maybe focal seizures might be causing her repeating numbers. However, Monday would be the earliest they could do it and he didn't think she should stay a couple days for it. She already has an appointment Wednesday for the neurologist and they'll talk about the EEG again. She has staples from the fall and can't get a MRI, but three normal CT's makes him confident it wouldn't show much of anything they would need to treat.

We are humbled by the Vol family and it's why I bleed orange and know we have the best fans and people. Thank you!

*Update*
Doing much better today. Headache not as bad and the changes in her speech are less frequent.

Thank you again Big Orange Family. This could have been a near fatal or fatal fall had she hit her head and neck in a slightly different angle. Kiss and tell those who you love, that you love them. I'm thankful I'm able to do this.
