Joe is HOME! This has been a really trying time for him. He’s been in so much pain ever since the Revel accident due to faulty brakes. He was doing his best to live a normal life and fight through the pain of a concussion, to the point of even downplaying his terrible headaches so as not to burden me with concern. But on Monday it all came to a terrible breaking point when Joe lost sensation in the left side of his body and had such excruciating cerebral pain that he could not function. I found him in this terrible state upon arriving home from yoga. I called his brother and we were able to get him to the hospital in life-saving time for emergency brain surgery to stop what is called subdural hematoma (a type of brain bleed). We never expected Joe to go into surgery so it was quite shocking and numbing for us. But here we are now. Joe is now slowly recovering. I know he’s going to be fine. He’s SO LOVED! This is how I know I’m marrying the right man. I can’t think of anyone more loved for his kind heart & selflessness. I’m incredibly grateful to NYU Langone’s Neuro ICU division 🧠 where Joe was treated. I’m grateful to his family for being here, to the unparalleled love of his identical twin brother 👬 for always being there at a moments notice and to (sorry Joe...I know you’re an atheist but..) GOD for being on our side. I’m overwhelmed speaking to attorneys and figuring out our next steps. It doesn’t end here. Joe has a long recovery journey ahead. We’re going to do our best. We are planning a wedding! We have so much to live for and be excited for...so the show must go on. While this may be a setback, it won’t stop us from moving forward. That is why I chose the color green for this post—to signify GROWTH. Thank you to everyone who messaged me, sent 💐, visited Joe @ hospital, expressed concern and honestly—to the thousands of followers who I received very sweet & thoughtful messages from--YOU GUYS really blew me away. I don’t think I ever really felt I had a community here on Insta until receiving your messages of support. I told Joe, I think they like you better than me! And you know what? I’m more than OK with that! Muchisimas gracias. I 💚 you all!
