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.

Lot's of Good Stuff Going On!

I got to see Josh in therapy yesterday, which was a real treat since I hadn't been up there in a looooong time. I have to get more pictures and video of his new workouts. He is doing more with his legs while on the exercise machines. Last time I went they were only working on his upper body to get that area BUFF! Now they are actually concentrating on his abs and leg muscles. YES! They even had him suspended over a treadmill while two therapist positioned his legs in a walking motion. Oh, this is getting GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will get some pictures and video to show you the proof. He is sitll working on crawling and walking with leg braces. It is a slooooow process, but it is paying off. I don't know how soon I will be able to get up to Josh's theapy again, but when I do...I will be packing a camera!
