I'd like to start by saying I never thought that at the age of 19, I would have a grey hair but today I learned never say never as my mom pulled my very first grey hair from my head. But enough about me lets get back to Bobby! Here's todays update!
We started this morning with Bobby back to his stable vitals! (Woohoo!) He had his CT and MRI this morning and we won't know the results until tomorrow morning, unfortunately. The whole day has been pretty relaxed, Bobby still pretty active as the last past days. We're really starting to see Bobby move his eyes back and forth, although his eyes aren't open all the way they're open just enough to see his eyes move. I've decided to help him practice, I bought some glow sticks from dollar tree and ask him if he can follow it, as I move it back and forth he's slowly but surely starting to move with it! Another small victory won! Nothing too exciting for today but we do need lots of prayers for tomorrow, here's why. At 11:30 am tomorrow, my parents will be in a meeting with about 20 doctors and nursing discussing Bobby's image results and what the game plan is for me. This is going to be very hard, as you know we haven't got a lot of encouraging information from them so please pray for peace over my parents hearts and minds for whatever they may tell them. Tomorrow around we think 3 pm again, Bobby will get his trach and G tube in. Pray for a God's Presence in that OR room and make it known. We continue to pray encouraging words over Bobby and remind him how much support he has. Our Great Physician is working miracles in Bobby with every breathe he takes! Hebrews 11:1 Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.......yet

I am following Bobby's (and your family's) journey very closely! I do not personally know you (yet, my daughter did do cheer at Wolfpack Athletics for 8 years) though, as a Mom of two 17 year old boys, my heartstrings feel your pain and also your positive outlook on Bobby's recovery! My boys have a huge circle of guys that hang out at our home nearly every night. (Friends since kindergarten!) My heart would certainly feel the pain if any of those boys would be in Bobby's place. You have my prayers day & night! Love to you all! I strongly feel that there will be #miraclesforbobby

Thank you for inviting me to go on this journey with Bobby and your entire family. It's a privilege to pray for him and I am confident God is with you and will do great things through you all. May you not lose heart but keep your eyes fixed on Jesus. May His GREAT LOVE surround you tomorrow and in the days ahead. I do not know you all personally but we share the same heavenly Father so we are family. May God go before you and with you especially Thursday.

I am praying for Bobby and your family. I don't know your family but my heart aches for anyone going through this difficult journey. My husband sustained a severe TBI almost 5 years ago. We know the Great Physician and He is the One we hope in. Please feel free to ask me any questions or anything. [email protected]

It's too early to listen to anyone but the Lord. Our hope and breath of life is in him alone. He chooses what happens to us not the drs. I plead the living blood of Jesus over Bobbie. It gives life and hope. We bind demonic forces that would say otherwise and thank you for the angels that hover round him to protect him day and night. All glory to God!!!!!

I'm Abby Ritter's dad as well as a pastor in Salem. Know that I pray for Bobby and your family daily. I've been so impressed with your family and the way everyone is responding to such a tragedy. Social media has give you a platform to inform everyone, but more importantly, to share God's love and healing power with everyone. I'm standing with you.

I heard about Bobby's accident immediately. I started praying immediately, but...after reading all the story's and listening to the Aunt, this is an incredible journey for everyone, thanks to your Bobby! Your family has blessed me by renewing my faith. Look at what you're facing and you still believe. This is so awesome. I believe this whole situation is in God's hands. Why wouldn't he want Bobby back, after all, he was just lent to all of US! He is a beautiful boy! He is so lucky to have you as family, but even more so, lucky God is holding him in his arms right this minute. You all must be so proud of him, I know I am. I pray he comes back to his beautiful family! I broke down tonight and cried, I have 3 beautiful boys! I can't even begin to imagine what your family is feeling. But...I pray for your family and Bobby, several times throughout the day. Whatever the outcome, I will always remember all of you, including Bobby, for bringing back into God's arms! But for now..."Just Be Held"

SI have been praying for your beautiful Bobby morning, noon and night and thru out the day with my husband and son we join hands and cry out to the Lord for Bobby. Our Father is a good, good Abba, Father, daddy. In your weakest moments remember our Father is merciful, and gracious, kind and loving. There is No one in the entire world that knows your pain better than He. Remember His Son was broken and bruised too. He weeps with you, He knows your sorrow and pain.,,,, Be still and Know that He is God!

I have never met Bobby or your family, however a friend from Hope City has asked us to pray. I am praying for Bobby for complete healing. I believe He is the God who heals, that He completely will heal and restore his brain and any neck injuries. I know Bobby will walk again. Jesus died so Bobby can be healed, so Bobby can live a long life.

This sounds so very similar to my son's progress last year. Please be encouraged. He has had miraculous progress. He is home now. He participates in in his outpatient therapies, hangs with friends, volunteers in the community, and is wanting to get a job.

My name is Jennifer Rio. I met your aunt at a homeschool convention. I have been reading and praying about your brothers journey. Today a friend of mine gave me a CD from Caroline leaf . She is a Christian brain doctor. She had some amazing things to say about the human brain. I think it would be something worth your family listening to.
