A BIG Thank You
In this season of giving thanks and celebrating family togetherness, I wish to extend a warm thank you to everyone who has been involved in a myriad of ways with my son, Caleb Potter, and his recovery. On July 4, he was involved in a skateboarding accident in our little hometown of Wellfleet on Cape Cod, that caused him serious injuries. He came home from Spaulding Rehab in Boston just before Thanksgiving. Through the blog we started:

i wish i could have been there today...my mom said it was absolutely amazing...caleb is in my thoughts and prayers everyday,he's always been one of the strongest, most positive people i've known...i believe in him always...lots&lots of love~Claire
This is jennie, caleb's girlfriend, and I just say thank you to everyone who came to the paddle out today. It was so amazing and beautiful. I can not believe how much this community has come together and I am so happy I am here to witness it. Caleb can feel all of our love and I am going to tell him about all of this when we go see him soon. i love u all and thank u
Thank you to whomever is running this site - it's a great comfort knowing how Caleb is doing... Sending my love and support to everyone involved in Caleb's life -
Hearing about his progress means the world...

the paddle out was glorious. hundreds of people @ lecounts hollow. so much energy, hope & healing. it was a highlight of my life. all ages of calebs friends and family coming together on the water for him. it was the christening of my "new" board in the wellfleet atlantic...now all i have to do is learn to surf!
128 people in a powerful circle.
for a time jan, max, shae & kai were in the center holding the focus for caleb.
at least 100 handfulls of flowers & petals were scattered upon the water.
last night @ the prayer circle was sharyn's first time. although it poured rain before & after, the sky was dry while we gathered @ town hall. sharyn fed us her dependable laughter medicine.
after we convened... lisa b, kate clancy, caleb portnoy & i joined cedar who had been tending a fire for all to gather in caleb's honor. apparently everyone was counting on rain so they went to the bomb shelter. we on the other hand had a perfect july evening on the beach. no wind, rain or bugs. upon the southern cliff was a towering flag pole flying a pirate flag, lit up with a spot light.
the water horizon line just below cradled lights of a boat, treasure hunters we were told, searching for more loot from the "wydah".
in the fire were 2 big metal stakes scalding to a red hot glow after being burned out of the wood they once held together...maybe from a pirate ship long ago???
the stakes found their way -via cedar & ennie no doubt- to the heart of the altar @ town hall by the time of the morning prayer circle.
sharyn invited everyone to her house for a cookout @ 5 for max's 21st birthday...HAPPY BIRHTDAY MAX!!!
just being @ their house is a healing experience. it is simple enough to hold the beauty of sharyn's gardens in my heart & mind & send that energy to caleb...how could he not heal with such love & beauty, multiplied hundreds if not thousands of times.
2night sharyn gave great news that not only did caleb shit! but he is also off the respirator, breathing on his own & his eyes are fluttering!!!
onward & unpward my friend...you are loved by many many people.
thank you for all you have given to this amazing town caleb, most of all the miracle of our faith in your healing.
faithfully, i am at your service...
love you kid, deirdre
that paddle out was amazing. i couldnt belive how many people were there. there were little kids of age 5 to old people of old ages.
Caleb and fam,iy you arein my thoughts and prays. my familys hot dog truck is supporting Calebs medical expences. during the paddle out we made over 170 $. so all i ahve left to say is .....LONG LIVE YELLOWBEARD!!!
To my fellow fleetions-
You all make me so proud to be a true fleetion. I wish that I could be taking part in the gathering, praying and uniting for Caleb. But my heart is there. I send my love and prayers, I love you all and I love Caleb.
Love Ashley Rose in San Diego
