Our hearts go out to everyone affected by the tragedy occurring in Bathurst, New Brunswick this past Saturday.

We think about them as we travel our own path of recovery. Eventually we learn what is important , what brightens our lives and what is of little concern.

One of the many things we learned these past few weeks is how important it is to have close friends like you!

Jared update:

Jared is brighter each day, now doing high fives with his nurses and responding to questions.

He continues to need his rest and his privacy. Thank you everyone.

This is why you both are thought so highly of by all who know you. You think of others in time of your own tragedy. Lauren and I are so pleased with Jareds progress.
