Dear family and friends,
We express our deepest and most heartfelt thankfulness to God and to you all. We understand and know God is in control and He works all things for the good of those who love Him . We would like to share the story of our twenty year-old son, David Wesley Bangean. David is the second of our six children. On August 19, 2017, David a previously healthy, excellent, and hardworking electrical engineering student at Tennessee Technological University suffered an extremely rare spinal stroke paralyzing him from the neck down. This happened when David turned his head to the right during a volleyball game while visiting friends and family in Lawrenceville, Georgia. After the injury, David spent the first month in the ICU at Gwinnett Medical Center. Several tests and MRIs’ later, doctors concluded the diagnosis to be Fibrocartilaginous Embolism. He is expected to be ventilator dependent and unable to move from the neck down for the rest of his life. Following the ICU, David spent two months at the Shepherd Center in Atlanta, Georgia receiving rehabilitative care. In November 2017, David was flown back to Tennessee. We were blessed with the opportunity to stay at our relatives house because our home was unsuitable to meet David’s medical needs. We are now awaiting the building of a home to better accommodate David and our family.
Although David is paralyzed from the neck down, he is still the same David and makes everyone laugh when they enter his room to visit. His love for Jesus has never wavered. We write these things to pass on David’s story and to communicate our thankfulness to God and to you. Through this entire season, we have prayed for a miracle and we continue to pray for a miracle. Every time it seemed as if a closed door stood in our way, somehow, someway, God provided an open door and we remain eternally grateful.
