"It's ok to not be ok," she began. "To all the women who have significant others playing on that field... I'm with you if you're not ok. I'm not ok and I continue to ask myself the tough questions.

"I wish someone could promise us that the people we fell in love with will be those same people when they are finished playing this game, but we all know, that is a promise that can not be made."
Kelly continued: "We all know how hard our men work and have worked their whole lives to be on that field. We don't take those dreams lightly... however, it does not mean we always have to be the strong/never break support. It's ok to be vulnerable and talk about it, especially with the man you love most.

"Continuing to lift up Damar in prayer. Continuing to lift his family, friends and teammates up in prayer. And I will continue to pray for all of you. It's ok to not be ok."

"I know he's still here, I know he's fighting," he told the network.
"We appreciate all the prayers and support we have been getting from people all over, not just the country, but the world. It really means a difference for my family to see that, and I know it'll mean a difference to Damar when he sees that."
He gave a glimmer of light when he said that Damar is "improving from where he was yesterday," but it's clear he's not out of the woods yet.
