Hunter’s hospital room was filled with visitors today — and for a while, it sounded less like an ICU and more like a family gathering, with laughter, shared stories, and moments of lightness in the middle of a long fight.
One visitor stood out in a powerful way. Frank Dennis, a fellow lineman who suffered a serious work-related injury nearly 30 years ago, made the drive from Jennings, Louisiana, just to see Hunter. Sitting beside him, Frank shared his own journey — the fear, the recovery, and the life that came after.
For Hunter and his loved ones, it was more than a visit. It was a glimpse into the future. Frank offered hard-earned insight into what recovery can look like, how to stay mentally strong, and why hope matters just as much as medicine. His calm presence and positive energy left a deep impression on everyone in the room.
As of now, the family is still waiting to learn whether Hunter will undergo a third surgery today. The procedure was added late and remains uncertain — the kind of decision that may not come until it’s time to wheel him down to the operating room.
For now, they wait. They hold onto moments like today. And they take strength wherever it shows up — sometimes in the form of a man who walked this road decades ago and came back to say, you can survive this.
Please continue to keep Hunter in your thoughts and prayers as this journey continues, one hour at a time.
