Day 100

Day 100.... A Milestone

Congratulations to you Daniel for toughing out 100 days of shattered bones, ruptured organs, intubation's, eleven surgeries, numerous hospital stays, days when you had to endure the pain with no pain meds, many setbacks and some disappointments. You've had enough tubes inserted in you to plumb a small house and parts of you are now titanium. But you have never given up and you have fought hard to remain strong, with faith and courage.

We won't dub you Saint Daniel just yet (there were those couple of times you got a little grumpy after all). But "Daniel the Lionhearted" (dictionary definition: extraordinarily courageous) and "Daniel the Determined" both fit well we believe. And of course there will always be the endearing "Trauma Bobsled".

So happy 100th Daniel! We love you and we know there are hundreds of people out there who follow your progress and who are praying for your complete and expeditious recovery.
