It has been a little over a week now that Bob (Blackhawk) Jensen had his terrible stroke. He was not doing well, but is progressing better than anyone had hoped for. The doctors and nurses have called his progress nothing short of a miracle. If you remember last week all he had was eye movement and that was considered involuntary. His wife, Martha, says that he recognizes her now and when she asked him if he liked the TV on he grunted a negative response to her. He is also tapping his foot for yes and no. He is on a feeding tube and Weds. evening at 1800 he went in for a tracheotomy because the feeding tube can irritate the throat after long periods and cause it to swell.
Eric Rohrbaugh at Rohrbaugh Firearms told Martha about the thread here on THR with its' 140+ responses and 5000+ views. She was amazed by the outpouring of care and prayer from all these people who have never even met her husband. Eric printed off all the responses and FedEx'd them to her overnight so she could read them. She says the prayers are working and to keep them coming.
This board plays a big part in a lot of our lives, I think more than any of us realize. For the people not familiar with our little THR community this is simply amazing. Martha has fielded calls from as far away as Europe and Australia from people inquiring about Bob and wishing him well. Bob is keeping up with the thread now because Martha has taken the printouts to his room in ICU and read him every response.
Blackhawk buddy, my prayers are with you and Martha, and when you kick this I will see you out on the firing line. First box of ammo is on me. Get well soon.
