Ugh the story is written up on the page , very gnarly

Hope she can recover fully

Snubbing the nose on the board and sanding down the edges of fins would sure stop many injuries does the pointy nose matter that much? Maybe its irrelevant and it was all brute force. Can't help thinking it was potato chip with the curling super pointed tip

This is terrible.. I met her at Austins memorial svc. not too long ago. She's a good kid. I put this up on my Facebook page. A few others have too, hope it all works out for her.

Here is an update from January 30th from the GiveForward site:

Hi everyone, I would like to start with an apology in taking so long to update,it was a crazy week. We returned home from Miami late Tuesday evening after her 2nd surgery and follow up. It really wore her out. Storm has mostly slept for 2 days before all the anesthesia left her body and still gets tired easily. Other than that she has remained positive and can't wait to return to the water and compete again. Now as far as where we are? That is the million dollar question. Dr. Smitty was able to remove most of the debris (mostly blood and the jelly from inside the eye) however there is still some blood on the bottom of eye moving apart and behind the eye. That means still no vision just light and motion she is also starting to see shadows (this is very good).It was also great news to hear that there was no retina detachment as of now pretty amazing considering the trauma. We will go back to Miami for another follow up this upcoming Wednesday and see when the next surgery will be as well as what will be done. If you would like to check out some of her interviews online we gave 2 exclusives only to Florida Today with Rick Neale and Channel 13 with Margaret  Kavanagh. Our family would like to thank all of you that have donated to Storm's fund without you Storm would not be able to receive the best care to save her vision and eye. So from our family to yours with love we hope that you know how much any donation small or large has made an astounding impact on not only her medical treatment but by my faith in man kind. With much Love, Toye Hall
