For all of our new friends and followers of Paxton’s Journey:
On Monday, March 3rd, Paxton was returning home from baseball practice with his grandfather (Dennis Glaude) and his cousin (Spencer) when they were involved in an automobile accident. While Dennis and Spencer only sustained minor injuries, Paxton was life flighted to Greenville Memorial Hospital with parenchymal bleeding on his brain i
n 7 different places, multiple severe Grade III diffuse axonal injuries (DAIs), and multiple fractures in his pelvis, among other less severe injuries. Pax was kept intubated (on the ventilator) and sedated for several days while the doctors and nurses monitored his increased intracranial pressure (ICP) via a bolt that was placed shortly after he arrived at the hospital. On March 21st, 18 days after the accident, Paxton was transferred to CHOA to begin intensive inpatient rehab. He is having to relearn how to walk, chew, pick things up, scratch his nose, feed himself...basically everything that many of us take for granted. There have been some rough moments, but Pax is a tough kid and with your support and prayers, he WILL get through this. And today, July 2, 2025, which is 121 days…2,904 hours…174,240 minutes…10,449,999 seconds since the day our lives changed forever for anyone who's counting, Paxton is coming home for good. But this is not the end of Paxton's Journey. We've got lots more in store for you, our precious followers, and we will continue to post updates as Paxton continues his recovery. Thank you for being here and for your continued support and prayers. It truly means the world to our family and we are so very thankful for each of you.
