If you didnt know I ended up in the Hospital last week!
Thank You From the Bottom of My Heart
Thank you all for the caring, prayers, help, and support. Anyone who knows me knows I don’t usually ask for help—even when I need it. I tend to push through the struggle and make the best of it. Sometimes that works out great… and sometimes, not so much.
But I am truly blessed to have an incredible support network of friends and family who are willing to drop everything and lend a hand. I honestly don’t know how to say thank you enough. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!
My crew, Paul, David Long, Austin James and my sons Tony Stark and Joey Jensen did an amazing job breaking everything down and getting our rigs across the country without even needing a phone call for directions. You guys truly stepped up to the plate and jumped into action when it mattered most.
Tyler Jensen and Dani Jensen may have truly saved my life.
I know myself well enough to know that, had they not taken matters into their own hands, I probably would have stayed at the hotel until things got so bad that an ambulance would have had to take me to the ER. I don’t know if I would have been that lucky.
Instead, they researched the best hospital within a few hours of Oxford, Arkansas—literally in the middle of nowhere—and just started driving. I honestly thought we were simply headed back to the hotel.
Once we arrived, everything started happening fast. Tests, CT scans, ECG, bloodwork—and then suddenly a surgeon and an entire crew were being assembled to fix a blockage caused by a small-intestine volvulus. My intestines had twisted into a knot, causing a blockage and beginning to deteriorate.
I’ve been here almost a week now, and thankfully I’m walking, eating, and most of my internals are getting back to doing what they’re supposed to do. The biggest thing I’m dealing with now is the approximately 8-inch incision through my belly and abdominal muscle. The pain is around a 4/10 now compared to the 10/10 I was dealing with for the first four days.
Today I walked out to the garden at this beautiful hospital, in Little Rock, Arkansas, and came across a statue and its placard.
To say it was humbling would be an understatement.
Once again, thank you to every single person who has reached out, prayed for me, checked on me, helped my family, helped with our rigs, or simply let me know you care.
I love and cherish every one of you who are part of my life.
Now… GET ME BACK TO THE RAT RACE I LOVE! 😂
See you all soon! ❤️
