Please consider helping Brian & Jacy any way you can. With medical care, the bills will pile up quickly and both have been off work while this is all happening.
Post from Jacy:
I am not one to post on Facebook about my life that much. This post is probably the hardest I have ever wrote and am struggling to even find the words. As many of you know my husband Brian Crawford
was in a very bad car accident on Thursday morning. Our Daughter is teething and Brian being the amazing father he is stays up with me and helps me till we get her to sleep together. He only got about 4 hours of sleep before he got up and went hunting. The alarm went off 3 times and he didn't hear it at all. It took me waking him up each time. He finally got up and got his things together and as always comes down to kiss Briann and me goodbye and says I love you. On his way back home he fell asleep and ran off the road. He took out signs hit a fence made out of railroad rails then the ditch that flipped him and rolled until hitting a telephone pole and cracked it. I will be forever grateful to those incredible men and women. Brian had to have emergency surgery on a ruptured spleen and was internally bleeding. Along with broken collar bone, 5 ribs, a cut on his head and needed to receive blood. Brian went to ICU until Saturday. After being moved he started to feel bad and saying something isn't right.
His breathing became very fast. Respiratory was called in and they wanted to take him back to ICU. I was told it would take a little while to get him settled in so I went to our house to quickly take a shower. When I pulled in the driveway the Dr called me and said your husband is very sick and you need to get back here now. I asked what that meant and was told they had started chest compressions. Brian got compressions for 50 minutes. He fought and was still with us. He then was put in a coma and his brain cooled down to 39 degrees for 24 hours. Right now he is being warmed up slowly for another 24 hours. He will then go get scans done to show if or what damage has been done to him. Last he will be kept at a normal temperature for 24 hours. I have been told to prepare myself for not getting back the same husband that I had before if he makes it at all.
I have had such a hard time wrapping my head around all of this. One day I am the happiest I have ever been and finally got everything I ever wanted in my life. The next day I am questioning whether or not I am going to have to raise my daughter alone and lose my best friend, Husband and the only man that I have wanted to spend the rest of my life with.
Please everyone keep praying for Brian and our family. I thank everyone who has reached out to us and have tried to get back to as many as I can when I can. I am posting this to let people know what happened as well as I am not going to be able to reply back anymore. Cause if this is the last couple of days that I get to have with him I am not going to lose one second doing something other then being by his side!!!
