These are Tammys words from Caringbridge:
Monday May 3 2021 Eric texted me at 4:05 as usual saying he was leaving work. Takes him about 30 minutes to get home. 4:45 came around and I started calling him to see if he was ok and if he was still driving home. Called 10 times, texted him, nothing. 5 o’clock came and still nothing. At 5:10 I call the sheriffs office to see if there was a accident that maybe he was involved in. They instantly transferred me to a deputy. The words came out of his mouth that I never ever wanted to hear. He had been in a bad accident and was at the Spirit Lake hospital. I called there and all they could tell me was that they were working on him and life flight was on their way to take him to Sioux Falls. Headed straight to the hospital and made it before life flight took him. Eric had a massive heart attack driving home. Why??? I wish I knew. He is so healthy and in great shape. This should not of happened. We made it to Sioux Falls around 10 pm Monday night. He is on the ventilator and they are currently trying to cool his body down to help with swelling on his brain. He did fractured a majority of his bones in his face. He did have a stent put in. He had a blood clot (they really don’t know how or why at this point) Talked to Spirit Lake ER a bit ago and they said the firefighters were called to extract him from his vehicle but the ambulance people noticed he had no heart beat and they had to flip the car themselves to get him out and shock him. They are very unsure on how long he went without a heartbeat which will In play give us more of a idea down the road if he has brain damage. That will be awhile to get those answers. In the mean time they are focused on his heart i will try to update as we go on but it will be a few days before we know anything really. The next 24-48 hours are a very critical time for Eric. Please just pray. I need you to. We all need you to!
Update:
We have made it 16 hours. I am going on no sleep, I went to see Eric this morning. We have learned that his heart is only working at 10%. He has the biggest amazing heart any other time, come Eric show me that heart again. He EEG is showing he has no brain activity. This is so hard to post this. I can not comprehend this. If this is Gods plan, I don’t like it. Kyan and I need him so bad as well as the whole family and friends. The last 21 years have been the most amazing time of my life. Please continue to pray we have 100 more years making memories and saying I love you 10 times a day as we have been for 21 years.
