April 29th Update - Artie is Home & Visitor / Meal Information

Mom is home! Dad is set for pick up tomorrow morning! Praise God!


As shared previously, we are going to have some new ways that you all can continue to support us. 


Visitors: 


Our parents are going to be so excited to start seeing their amazing friends and family! We are going to open up a visiting spot for 30 minutes a day starting next week to give us some time to adjust to everyone being home. If you want to come for a visit just sign up at the link below. Please know these visits are intentionally short with Artie in mind. Artie is progressing but please understand that she is still working her way back to her typical social butterfly behavior 🦋 


Note: Phone calls can be a lot for Artie at this time - challenging to follow and keep up with quick responses. Reach out to Ali to schedule a short call if you’d like to chat!

Meals:


First, thank you ALL for keeping us fed these last few weeks - we are so grateful!! As we are enter the new phase of coordination at home, we are going to start a new meal train for these next few weeks to help us adjust and have one less thing to think about.

For those still looking for other ways to help, keep your eyes peeled here! As we better understand needs that we have, we will update here.


Prayer Requests: Pray for successful transition home & full return of cognitive and physical abilities.


Grateful for each and every one of you!


Keep praying.


Love you more.

Alison, Derek & Dylan

    I am so glad to hear that they are both home. I have been away and didn't have access to a computer. I am the other driver and I have been praying for them every day. I am praying for a full recovery. I am glad they have a family to take care of them and that know how to pray. A miracle has happened and my thanks are to our heavenly Father who listens and answers. He gives us His angels to watch over us and keep us. God bless each of you

The Final Post Update

Two months ago, we were all praying for a miracle to be able to share this post with you all today. God is so good & has provided refuge & restoration for our family - our gratitude is beyond words.   Week one, a family friend told us “the good thing about marathons is that marathons end.” Today we are blessed to say our marathon has ended.  While there is no doubt still a journey ahead, new beginnings & continued recovery - we have survived the thick of it by the grace of our loving God, the incredible medical professionals from day one to now that have cared tirelessly for our parents, the prayer & support of friends and family that truly goes beyond our comprehension. There will never be enough thank you’s we can say & we hope you all know from the bottom of our heart we are so grateful for each and every one of you.  Artie & Marlin are on their way! Both of them have their phones & we want to encourage you all to reach out, schedule v...

Artie & Marlin - First Update from the Family

  Hello Loved Ones:  This morning we were made aware that our parents were in an accident on Route 7 near Hill High Orchard. They were crossing Route 7 and hit by an oncoming driver that they did not see.    Our parents were transferred to separate hospitals.  Artie is in Reston Marlin is Winchester They are both in critical condition at this time. We are happy to report that thankfully both of them are responsive and know we are there. Derek and Faye are with Marlin in Winchester and Dylan and Drew are with Artie in Reston.  Alison and Dave are en route on flights from Texas arriving at 10pm this evening.  Marlin is responsive and knows Derek is there with him. Main concern now is mild bleeding in the spleen. They are waiting to see if the bleeding will stop on its own, if not they will need to remove in surgery. He and Artie both have fractures to their pelvic and ribs.   There is a long road ahead and we need all the prayers from friends and fa...
