Checking in:
- Dak is throwing, less than 2 weeks later.
-Amari off of PUP, seen catching passes from Dak today
- Lawrence off of PUP, participating in defensive walk-throughs before pre-season week 1
Sometimes optimism from a team is truthful.
Checking in on the Cowboys:
- Dak may not throw for weeks.
- Amari has been out 7 months, isn’t close to ready.
- DeMarcus Lawrence missed all offseason with back surgery, not close to ready.
I haven't posted an update in a while, I suppose one is due. I'll keep this as a thread for future updates
We're having a little boy!
Sadly, we learned he has spina bifida. It's been a whirlwind of reading online, Dr appointments, & updating friends & family. Asking for prayers
Well Sam decided to give us a scare and stop breathing. Did CPR until the ambulance showed up and cleared him out with some suction. At the ER. Chest x-ray looks good.
SAM PATRICK W. UPDATE: Little guy is doing fantastic. Off all painkillers besides occasional Tylenol. Has had his last dose of antibiotics from this procedure. Had to get another IV put on because they lost a line but he's good. Other positive news as well.
Sam update for the night: had to take the day off work unpaid but got to talk to doctors and feel much better about where Sam is at and the plan going forward.
Was a little shocked by the developments! Mostly positive. On the path home. If you want details you can DM me.
Sam's going down to surgery again, just about half an hour this time. Not nearly as scary but I still hate to have him go through another one. Just waiting on the nurses to transport. If you're the praying type we sure would appreciate it..
We've been doing better, hoping this continues to improve. Coming off one medicine, less irritable overall. He had a Atrovent treatment, think it's helping.
Sam is scheduled for a gastro tube placement Thursday morning.

turns a dull assignment "TNF Recap" into an utter literary masterpiece. This article made me laugh, while being descriptive, informative & more entertaining than the game. One of the best football writers at the top of his game. Randy Moss-esque dominance.

Erasing the Dez catch might mean they never fix the rule.. Just something to consider.
Fumbled snap vs Seattle
Leon Lett
Murray fumble
Williams not out of bounds
Dwight Clark
Golden Tate dirty hit
Romo collarbone break
Trevathan INT in Denver shootout might take the cake
Overwhelmed by the love & support from everyone on here. Hard to respond to everyone but thank you so much for praying for our little guy!
2nd IV is in but 1st might have to be redone.
Surgery in 3 hours or so will post updates when I have them.

Suppose I should post a Sam update: they still can't find anything really wrong with him or any cause behind the breathing issue. He's been improving, slowly, in the hospital. Sounds like we're going home with a bunch of equipment.
Pray for my wife, that she'll be able to sleep.
Some people think this isn't a big deal but:
A bonus paid in California will have 10.23% withheld in state taxes. With the large amount (over 1 mil) probably closer to the "minimum effective state tax" of 13.3%
That's significantly more net income.
Alright, here's your Sam update of the day™: they gave him a little caffeine and he's been awake and calm. No breathing pauses today which is nice. Swallow test under x-ray gave us a lead to track down. Feels nice to maybe have an answer and solution!
@Icehole592421
Okay oxygen with a different tubing... Maybe this will work?
Feel like we went backwards today. More breathing pauses, more suctioning, still no answers. Very frustrating.
Apparently Sam is at an elevated risk to stop breathing before that shunt gets placed. Not that I'm worried, but I'm upset that I was only told after ranting to a doctor about still being here. The communication here has not been stellar.
Sounds like surgery to place the VP shunt will be Tuesday (subject to change) hoping we can go home Wednesday or Thursday. Sam is still doing great, even if he didn't want us to sleep last night.
