“But he is doing okay, and he’s moving around. But yeah, (it was a) really, really bad car accident. Just keep him in your thoughts, send him some love if you get a chance on social and he’ll be back with us soon Thank you and the #WalkerFamily for all the love and support. Can’t wait to see y’all again.
