In October we went up to Cleveland to visit Austin and Taylor. Austin started med school at Case Western earlier in the year and it was our first time up to visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The weather was great and it was fun seeing their new apartment and going to some of their favorite local restaurants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It hasn’t been easy still having him so far away. I thought for sure he would be joining us down in NC by now but he’s happy where he is at and that is all that matters. We have all slowly gotten used to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some friends of ours from Columbus met us up there and we got to hang out for a night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We talked a lot about them driving their truck down to Coles college in the mountains and stealing his motorcycle (that we really didn’t want him to buy) because I just had a bad feeling something bad was going to happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately I was right and a couple weeks later a van pulled out in front of Cole and he hit it and went flying. He ended up air flighted to the nearest trauma hospital and was in ICU with head injuries (even though he was wearing a helmet), a severely broken arm, broken jaw on both sides, knocked out a tooth and a few other injuries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But he survived. I might write more on that later or I might not. I still have nightmares about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
