That's terrible. It seemed to suddenly come from nowhere. I can't imagine how Shawn Springs is feeling. It puts into perspective how important things really are. I will be praying for the Springs family. |

Re: Ron Springs in coma
You guys have no idea how close to home this story hits me. My mom suffered from kidney failure. After years of dialysis treatment she received a kidney transplant only to have it reject and return back to dialysis. A year or two later she received a second transplant, which she lived with for well over 20 years. To this date, I personally don't know of anyone having survived with a kidney for that long.
A few years ago, she, like Mr. Springs, fell into a coma unrelated to the actual transplant and passed a few days after I returned home from the west coast. My heart really, really goes out the Springs family. I'll be praying for them. The suffering of a loved one in a coma cannot be expressed in words. |

Re: Ron Springs in coma
Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel is actually scheduled to air a piece on Springs and Everson Walls this coming Tuesday.
I wonder what they'll do now? Will they scrap the piece, or update it. Overall, just a terrible situation

Re: Ron Springs in coma
There's really no way to imagine the heartbreak that one goes through during this process.
My father passed away in a similar fashion about 10 years ago, and it's devastating to a family to have to sit bedside and just sort of wait it out. It's almost as if you want to expidite the process to end the suffering, but all you can do is wait and pray. All my thoughts and prayers go out to the Springs' family, and all families that have to experience the pain that is associated with any/all forms of trauma like this.

Re: Ron Springs in coma
My best goes out to the Springs family, as well as anyone else that has been in a similar situation. There aren't any words to describe what his family are going through right now. I just really hope that they will be able to pull through this tough time together.

Re: Ron Springs in coma
god bless the springs family. Shawn need to take care of his family and not worry about football. There are things more important than a silly sport.
