“My father is not in hospice, but rather in a rehabilitation center,” she wrote on Instagram. “He suffered a massive heart attack on September 20, was in a coma for a week and spent over a month in the hospital. By the grace of God, he has now been transferred to a rehabilitation center, where our family remains present, full of hope and focused on his recovery.
“It’s already been a long road, and we know there’s still a long way to go, but our faith in God remains strong. Anyone who knows my dad knows it was his strength, work ethic and athleticism that helped him not only get through this, but overcome every challenge life threw at him. If there’s one person I trust, it’s Captain Mike.
