Every once and a while I read a sad story on chief delphi and hope to god that I never have to do such a thing. A first robotics team is much more then a team, its a family. On October 1st, a member former member of my FTC team of two years was in an ATV accident. Him and a friend were on separate ATV's. His friend stopped and Kody couldn't stop fast enough. He flipped the ATV on top of himself. He was air lifted to the hospital where nearly half of his left brain was removed. A recent MRI report came back and the results are grim. He has skull fragments deep in what remains of his brain. I ask the robotics family to support the Roettjer family in their time of need. The family is very religious so prayers are very welcome.
You can follow the story
here and support the family.
Many Thanks
