Cy had gotten back from his trip to Pikeville and we were doing something or other on our computers when his mom called and said that my sister was on the news. She told us about what was being said and all since we don’t have the local channel on our satellite and it was pretty upsetting, then at 11 we went up to her house to watch it then. At 6 it had been the top story but something else eclipsed it at 11 and the story was much shorter, so it wasn’t until Chenoa found this article for me that I was able to see it myself.
I’ve since spoken with my niece and don’t doubt at all that what she said was edited and whatnot to make the story “bigger” for the network. Talking to Angie also gave me more of the story and I have to admit that there’s a lot of it that doesn’t make sense at all. I got to talk to my nephew too, bless his heart. My brother in law isn’t in “critical” condition anymore but is still in the ICU and the last I heard was still on the vent, still hadn’t woken up… the doctors still aren’t saying that he’s going to make it but Angie seemed hopeful, so I am too.

Wow. It's more scary and real when it's on the news, isn't it? I'm glad to hear Jimmy isn't in critical anymore. I hope he recovers and wakes up soon!

Oh dear, I am so sorry just to hear about this entire situation, but I am glad that your brother-in-law is getting better. If you need to talk, I'm here. *hugs*
