Moderators Popular Post Blake Munroe Posted March 15 Moderators Popular Post Posted March 15 So many of you always ask how he’s doing and we are so fortunate to be involved in a community that truly cares. I wanted to share this with you all, as the majority of you have been around for every step of his journey. Colt was given the annual Padilla Poll Hero Award for 2025. They announced it last week and his athletic director posted about it today. 61 1 Quote

taxsaver Posted March 15 Posted March 15 Awesome. We are only limited by our own minds. We can do what we want when we want through effort, commitment, diet, exercise, and faith. Quote

Jc Dobbs Posted March 16 Posted March 16 I live southwest of Ft Worth about 18 miles from Downtown and the Medical District. I walk and jog on the hike and bike trails nearby and nearly every day I see the medical helicopter incoming and outgoing to the southwest of the Medical District and Cook Children's Hospital. I always think of Blake's son Colt when I see the chopper and wish the best for him... and the patient on the helicopter that day when I see it flying by. 2 1 Quote

Colt overcame a lot but without great life flights and expert medical care, he likely would not have any chance at a recovery. Edited March 16 by Burnt Orange Horn 2 Quote

Colt overcame a lot but without great life flights and expert medical care, he likely would not have any chance at a recovery. True...but some folks would not have put in the effort AFTER the medical care. Colt DID. He didn't allow a bad "break" rule him entirely. He took the Longhorns by the horns. I know a bit about recovery. I had a massive stroke. Couldn't move, eat, drink, or anything else at one point. But I never gave up. I love those nurses who were so great. No one meeting me for the first time now would guess that I ever had a stroke. The doctors are mystified. They said I would die. Yet 4 years and 4 mos later here I am on OTF! Congratulations to Colt on keeping his head on straight and taking on recovery like the champion he is. I highly suspect that he has only just begun. As a result better things are ahead!
