It has been a roller coaster of emotions; depression, joy, sadness, extreme happiness, sorrow, confusion. These past ten years I have fought a continuous uphill battle to get to where I am today. 10 years ago today (Feb 4th 206) I went out with my friends, ended up in a race and took a turn too fast- several flips and rolls later I ended up in a coma. Hanging upside down by my seat belt, my friends pulled me out of the car. After emergency was called I was air lifted to the hospital, where I spent 8 and a half weeks in my coma.
After I was "woke up" I was moved to a nursing home/acute rehab facility. A few months later I was sent to another rehab facility, and a few months later I was sent home. I was basically wheelchair bound at this point, and tried to go back to school. The year- 2007.
Amber has been my rock, keeping me steady and focused the entire time. We met in high school, and finally started dating in 2007 (I graduated in '05), got married in '09. We spent some time in Indiana hen moved back to Arizona in 2014. Our daughter was born on May 3rd '14 and since then I got my first job in 8 years at Walmart.
The whole way through Amber has been my support and my best friend helping me every way. Now Olivia is my focus, helping me zero in on my goal of finally graduating collage and bing the best father and husband they deserve.
I love you Amber and thank you.
