One year later

This has been a most challanging year to say the least! Russ has come such a long way from that first phone call on the afternoon of June 6, 2009! I can still feel my heart beat the way it did when I first got the call of the accident, and then the waiting for Kelly to call back with the details of where they were taking Russ!
I want to thank Kelly once again for his quick actions on getting Russ the help he so badly needed! You are my super hero!
Russ has been and was so blest even when the accident first happened. He had no head trauma, and for that I am so very thankful. Heavenly Father was watching over him even then, as he still is now.
Russ has come such a long way, and with his new chair his desires to continue on grow stronger every day!
Russ has some wonderful therapist at Immanuel and to them I want to say Thank You! You have been so super supportive of Russ, and you tolerate our family very well!!!
I also want to thank all of those at Madonna, who helped us as a family, when the situation for us was the worst we could possibly think of. You all taught us so well on SCI and recovery, and supported us on our down days and laughed with us on our up days! You will always be in our hearts.
I could ramble on that is forsure, but you have read enough of my thoughts this past year! I want to thank you all for your kind words and love that we can feel from you.

Russ, you keep up the awesome work! I’m expectin’ more great things outta you in the coming year.
Best regards,
