Barry’s Story

Site created on March 16, 2018

Welcome to our CaringBridge website. We are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. Thank you for all of your texts, emails and calls and for keeping Barry and our family in your thoughts.  We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. Thank you for visiting.

On the morning of March 13, Barry was in the Sultan Basin when trees fell on his vehicle.  Fortunately there were Department of Natural Resource workers in the area who responded quickly.  Barry was airlifted to Harborview Hospital in Seattle where he remains in the intensive care unit.  Barry has suffered significant trauma.  Barry's team here at Harborview is working tirelessly to keep him stabilized while they assess and treat his injuries. 

At this time. visitors are limited to family.  As his condition changes we will let you know.  We will be posting updates periodically, so please visit again soon.  Feel free to share this site and information with others.

Journal entry by Kerry Chrisman

March 13, the day of Barry’s accident, will always be a day of reflection and gratitude.  There was no dwelling on it yesterday.  Barry and I chatted in the morning and then went about our day.  Went out with friends for dinner which was most enjoyable.  And now we carry on.  Hopefully monetary issues will be resolved before the 4 year mark!  Getting closer.  Thanks again to family and friends for helping us get through this.  Could not have done it without you.
