“I had to remind myself to stay humble. I’m healing at a rate I did not anticipate. I am thankful. Thank you so much for all the well wishes I’ve been getting. It has worked. I am healing,” he said.
In another post, Stoan said he was grateful for the support he had received from his family during this time.
“I feel so grateful to have my family at this time. Thank you all again for the well wishes. I can’t reply to all the messages, but appreciate each and every one.”
