Wednesday Update on our friend Gary Ayers:


Had a wonderful nearly 20 minute conversation with Gary last night (Tuesday). He was in good spirits; could tell that he was still a little weak from the week’s ordeal - but still an amazing recovery to this point, Praise the Lord! He was beyond appreciative of all the well-wishes, prayers, thoughts, and notes that he has received during this - and in true Gary Ayers fashion, he was humble about them all. We shared a few laughs, maybe shed a couple of tears - but as wonderful as Sunday evening’s text was from him, hearing him last night was truly praise worthy and uplifting…

From what he told me, the plan is for Gary to be released from Mission Hospital at some point this week to a rehabilitation center for at least 7 days. He should at some point be moved to “CarePartners” in Asheville. I will try and update once he is discharged and relocated - beyond amazed and thrilled that we’re talking about that here this week!

THANK YOU to everyone that has generously contributed to the GoFundMe campaign for Gary and family… right at over 50 donations from Catamount Nation, former student-athletes, Maroon Devil country, and across the Southern Conference truly showing Gary’s reach and impact on so many. The link has been shared a lot of well-wishers, too - thank you! If you know of anyone else who would like to contribute, pass it along… thank you, thank you, thank you!

Will share any additional info when I can! Keep the prayers coming… power of prayer works! Thanks, all!
