Today, I received a phone call from a great friend and college roommate, Veron. Now everytime "V" calls me he is usually up beat. But the message he left me was very quiet and he didn't sound like himself. When I called him back he informed me that our friend Tim's father, Tommy, was in a coma.
It was one of those freak accidents that no one ever truly understands why it happens. Tom, Tim's dad, fell on a stairwell and hit his temple. As of today he is in the hospital fighting for his life.
Tim was the first person I met in college. We were freshman roommates and have been friends ever since. Tim gets his sense of humor from his father and whenever the two of them were together, look out!
When I first competed in NYC his family let me stay at their home in Staten Island. Tim has always been a great friend.
My heart goes out to the entire Long Family. Robin, Tim, Matty, Eric, and Sam I love you and will keep you in my prayers.
Stay strong,
Tyler
