Although we are constantly thinking of and praying for Bobby and his family, I thought we could send a concentrated effort their way EACH evening.
Let's dedicate the hour between 8 and 9 pm to the Models. Whether you have two minutes or most of the hour, whether you are alone, with family or can meet with friends; find some time between 8 and 9 pm to pray, send positive energy and strength to Bobby and his family.
With passion and intensity, this will make a significant impact.

Hello All,
I just spoke with Anne, Bobby's mother, and she says that Bobby is improving physically and the bruising is healing. His brain shows little improvement, but we will continue to pray for him. She wants to thank everyone that is blogging on this site. They are reading what we are saying and it is greatly appreciated. They are finding strength in our words.
She tells me that Bobby could not be in a better facility. They have some of the top brain surgeons in the world in the hospital that he is in. People travel to this hospital from Europe and other places for the doctors that are in residence there. This gives me much hope. I just wanted to share this with all of you. I know that this family is on your minds as much as they are on mine.
Best regards,
Janet K. Cozzens

Bobby,
Thought that you would like to know that the grass is mowed at the shop and Peter Chivers is doing a great job on the building, it's looking good. Peter's dog "Painter" got pepper sprayed by the mail man. Poor dog just barked at the mail man and gets sprayed and the police show up, Peter gets a $50.00 ticket. You Need to get better so that Peter can tell you the whole story.
You would not believe how many people are pulling for you, I myself am in total awe. Bobby, you have touched so may lives all around the world. I recently spoke to Kyle Anderson AKA "Ace" and he talked about stories when you were kids. What I a sight it must of been to see you flying off of a florescent orange painted ski jump you built in the alley behind your house, while being pulled by a car at 30 miles an hour. Every person that has been able to get to know you has a funny story or experience they had with you. You have may never know your true greatness, but your friends, family, and people you have never met, see it. Get better you have more to do, keep fighting.
Faith stay strong and let Bobby know we all love him and are praying for him. Brent Lohrenz

hey there erynne... i just saw your post here... it is 9:10... your post said:

in answer to this: oh, yes, i can do this, and will join in with you and anyone else... i am a mite late out here (as i am now in mich, at this point in my life) but i will make a note to pray now, and at eleven again, which will be 8, by westcoast time... if any of you all is out west.... and will keep hitting the 9 o'clocks with you and a host of folks...
for those that fast and pray, we used to fast and pray on friday for a gal that was in dire needs... amazing doors are opened by the good lord as we give our time "replenishing our system" up---and let him replenish those in dire straits...
wishing strong trails of new hopes to you all... and to bobby's family, first and foremost, now... god bless...

Dear Bobby's Family and Friends,
I have been sending prayers of strength and healing to Bobby each day since I heard the news. He is the toughest of the tough, and a warm-hearted, generous spirit. I can only imagine your anguish right now. Please know that my prayers and well-wishing also go out to you in this difficult time. If there is any way I can be of assistance, please let me know.
I'm a writer who worked with Bobby in Libya and Iran for National Geographic Adventure magazine. He was always a pleasure to travel with, and we shared many adventures. If anyone can pull through, it's him.
With all my heart,
Kira Salak

Faith, Anne, Bob & Bobby. My thoughts and prayers are with you. My performances are dedicated to you. Bobby has been such an inspiration to me, combining his love for the extreme with such brilliant artistry. Not a show passes when I am clipping a carabiner into a sling or strapping into a harness, or hanging from some crazy height by just my fingers, wondering how long my grip can hold out, that I don't think of Bobby and his amazing abilities, fearlessness and passion. And now he hangs on with the same strengh, drive, and courage he always has, on the edge of a great cliff, and I hope all of our prayers will help him find the holds he needs to pull himself up, and out of this.
much love to you
Terry Dean Bartlett
