I just got off of the phone with Jon and he wanted me to pass along his appreciation to every single one of you that has donated so far no matter how big or small it all helps.
Now for an update on Owens condition:
The only good news is he's out of his coma, but he is totally unresponsive to light or any other stimulation. The ADEM disease he has is extremely rare and devastating, there are only 5-6 cases reported worldwide and what happens with this is the virus mimics the brain and causes the antibodies in the blood to attack the brain and brain stem. They are looking at a very long road to recovery if everything goes well. Owen will be in the hospital for a minimum of 2 months, then 2 months of rehab to relearn how to walk,talk, and other motor skills, and then 2 months of physical therapy. Loren has insurance but Jon believes they will hit the cap on it well before this is over, so they are going to have bills piling up quick and will need every penny the can get. I've had some pm me and ask about the goal on the fund me site and that it states that if the goal isn't met within the 30 days you won't be charged, what that means is you won't be charged on your card until after the 30 days unless it meets the goal before then.

Jon thought that was scaring people off thinking he wouldn't get the funds so I guess he lowered it. He still needs donations this going to be a drop in the bucket compared to what the bills are going to be.
