Prayers for Steven Peterson

Our friend, son, brother, and uncle Steven was in a jet ski accident on Marco Island, Florida on October 6, 2019.  Steven is a charismatic, sweet man who always puts others before himself. This guy has the biggest heart in the world, with a fantastic sense of humor that leaves everyone he crosses with a smile... He was pulled lifeless from the ocean, where passerby’s performed CPR on him and he came back to life. He was transported to Naples Community Hospital, where his heart had stopped again. They resuscitated him, and he was airlifted to Lee Memorial Trauma Unit in Fort Myers, FL. His brain had shut down, and he was on life support for the first week. They said he had a 5% chance. It has been two weeks and and he has just started talking through his tracheotomy tube.  He has regained consciousness, and is on his way to improving even more. He will likely go through some sort of rehabilitation afterwards. The hospital staff and first responders deserve to get paid, they are angels on the hospital floor, as we have seen in the last few weeks. As a family we appreciate and thank you all for helping him reach his goals. All donations will go towards medical expenses and rehabilitation. We will post proof of this as bills are paid. My brother has another chance at life and we are so grateful.
