UPDATE from Brett's mother -

“The good news is that he is squeezing Trish's hand, when they are drawing blood he is reacting to pain, they have taken off the neck collar so we are thankful for his neck & spine. Please pray that his brain will heal. He is in the best care & we have Trish Grounds, watching over him. Trish will take care of my baby.”

UPDATE from Ryan Nyquist -

"Latest on Brett @iMaddog9: he woke up, no broken bones, but has bleeding & swelling in brain. Induced coma and monitoring. Get well buddy!"
