Mark’s Story

Site created on January 13, 2020

Welcome to our CaringBridge website for Mark Bennett. We are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement.

January 9th, Mark suffered a bad fall and is in the ICU with head trauma.  Though he is making progress every day, there is going to be a long road to recovery.  He is getting great care and making progress.  Here we plan to keep everyone up to date the best we can on his progress, ways to help support the family and when the time is right, visiting Mark.  

For now, we greatly appreciate using this site as your best source for updates rather than emails direct to family and sharing support, which is so greatly appreciated.  As you can imagine the family, and in particular Deb, is focused on Mark and his needs right now.  As we know everyone is worried and wants to stay informed, we will be updated as much as we can.  

We so appreciate all the love and support.
