Enjoying life before the accident. Josh was about 14-15 years old. He and his friends made their own bike jumps.

About Me

My photo
We have 5 children and 5 grandchildren with one on the way. Eric and I were married in 1984 and are still together today. We met in church and raised our kids in that same church, We are still very involved at this same church. God has been there for us through many ups and downs in our family life. We have struggled with children with ADD, hyperactivity, strong wills, addictions, and one that became paralyzed at the age of 15 due to a car-pedestrian accident...he was the pedestrian. Eric and I have had to work through relationship issues (as do most couples), job loss, and financial problems. Even though we are believers, that doesn't mean we will never have problems. We just know that God is there for us through these struggles. There has been a lot of growth through these times.

MORE BIOFEEDBACK

Josh went for more biofeedback today. Instead of trying to flex his muscles while sitting, he stood up with his leg braces and walker. He did even better than the last time. We set up three more sessions and will set up more because he is doing so well. Josh has been doing exercises to strengthen his upper body and working his abs. There has been much atrophy in the ab and hip areas, but his abs are beginning to get some tone back. The hips need a lot more work though. We were so encouraged after today's session. Excitement is in the air!!!

I was in a severe car accident 7 years ago, was in a coma for a week. I still dont remember anything from it. But i have been doing biofeedback for some of the lingering head trauma problems. Its hard to see the progress (with the head) unless you write down the changes. Good luck!
