Well the date was different, but it was Memorial Day, 2006 when Gary broke his neck.  To say our lives have changed, is an understatement.   When I try and explain what is different I am overwhelmed.  Other than my love for Gary and more importantly our Heavenly Father, EVERYTHING has changed.  We lived in a barn, now we live in an RV.  We played tennis, skied, roller bladed, hiked, lifted weights, chopped wood, and worked around out 18 acre property, now well, we don't do any of that.  Now don't get me wrong this is not a pitty party, and we have not lost anything, but in fact just traded up.  Yes at present we do live in an RV, but this affords us the opportunity to now travel and are in CO visiting Gary's son Kory and his family and have not been out here since before Gary broke his neck.  You don't dare travel with a C-300 Permobile wheelchair on an airplane unless you want it in pieces when you land.  No thank you!!!  But what this also affords us is the opportunity to share our testimony at different places across the US.  We shared for the first time at our NEW home church in Livingston, TX and the response was truly overwhelming and humbling at the same time.  So many people, especially the men were so touched by Gary's testimony and his willingness to be open and real.  God was truly in the house that day.  So now 7 years later I don't think we would change where we are at because we know it was designed by God and to him be all the glory.  He is a glorious God and we know his timing is always perfect and just ask daily that he grant us the patience to do what we need to do while waiting for the miracle to manifest that Gary will be walking again!!!
