If you are not aware, on 2/05/21, Preston was washing his car and felt a pop in his back. Hours later, he started to have tingling and pain in his extremities. Later that evening, he was rushed to ER without function of his legs and arms with swelling of his spinal cord at the (C-3, T-5).  Upon multiple neurological scans, the doctors diagnosed him with Transverse myelitis (learn more here) . 

His prognosis is ok at this time. He is temporally paralyzed from the chest down. The doctors said that they could not operate with the swelling and damage to his spine, or there could be a 90% chance for permeant paralyses.  All that being said, he has 12 weeks of bed rest, and probably a year in a wheelchair. He has some use of his hands and is a hotdog on the electric wheelchair.

He is still, "The Technology Cowboy", fun-loving, never meets a stranger and would give anyone the shirt off his back, guy. He has a great attitude and always a smile (see pic) and like everything else he has done, he will take this long road to recovery head on.

He has a great support group and is really focused on getting back to being the life of the party. I know so many of you have reached out and he wishes he could respond to every single person, but he is trying to rest and focus on his healing process.

We will keep y'all informed with updates through social media.  The medical bills are stacking up and will continue to do so as he endures extensive physical therapy. He will see this, and  I am sure he will be touched. He is ready to get home to his sweet dog, Samantha :). Lets give back to Preston as he has touched so many of our lives and will continue to do so without a doubt.
