From the Tallahassee paper, he's awake and trying to talk!!!!! "Equestrian Darren Chiacchia is awake and breathing on his own without the help of life support, his brother said Monday. Daniel Chiacchia said the award-winning equestrian's ventilator was removed Monday. He is also trying to talk, Daniel Chiacchia said. He added, "It looks like he's going to make it," Daniel Chiacchia said about his brother." |

Great to hear this! Just today we received an email from Kevin Baumgarten (sp?) about the meetings they are having to make changes to the eventing world. Seems the straw finally broke the camel's back!

majorly super update last night! March 26, 2008 - 8PM EDT Although still in the ICU Darren continues his gradual improvement, responding to commands and moving his extremities with more consistency. His left lung remains problematic with a chest tube still in place and draining fluids. Cognitively he is more alert, and able to indentify familiar faces. The hospital staff is pleased with his progress. |

After a couple days of status the same, his family has posted this: March 29, 2008 7:00 PM EDT The United States Equestrian Association (USEA) has continued their support for Darren in many ways, including placing an ad for donations in the next issue of Eventing USA and creating a poster for sale at Rolex Kentucky, where all proceeds will go to Darren’s medical expense fund. The family wishes to thank the USEA and the thousands of others who have provided prayers, cards, and other offers of support during this very difficult time. Darren remains in ICU and has begun communicating verbally, but his responses are inconsistent and illogical. Continue to pray for Darren as he attempts to pull himself from his darkness. Darren’s mother and sister Kim are now at his bedside, hoping to help him reconnect to the world he knew and loved. So that his neurological pathways can sort themselves out. |

Yesterday's and today's updates. March 31, 2008 5:00 PM EDT As the family paid their respects to his deceased grandmother, Darren took his first steps today. He was unsteady, but this is indeed a milestone in his physical recovery. His cognitive functioning remains more guarded. He is confused and illogical, but optimism remains. March 30, 2008 9:30 PM EDT Unfortunately Darren’s maternal grandmother, Dorothy Weaver, passed away today at the age of 86 after a courageous fight with lung cancer. When Darren learned of her failing condition, he flew to Buffalo to visit just before his accident. His grandmother was surprised and excited over Darren’s visit, and Darren truly thought he would see her again before her passing. Darren’s mother left his bedside today to attend the services for her mother on Monday and Tuesday. She along with Darren’s other siblings and spouses will fly back Tuesday evening to visit Darren and attend the fundraiser at the Dover Farm on Wednesday. Darren’s sister Kim Fraser remained in Tallahassee with Darren. Darren’s condition is basically unchanged from yesterday. He is able to be transferred from his bed to a chair, but cannot stand unassisted or walk. He also has difficulty maintaining his posture. The family is hopeful his chest tube can be removed early this week. |
