They just celebrated their 40th Wedding Anniversary
And for all they've been thru in the past 4 years, you rarely see Mr. Stephen without a smile. He has lost his voice and paralyzed on his right side, leg and arm from a massive stroke. but retrained himself to use his left hand, ordered a 3 wheel bike with controls moved to operate it left handed. Exercise is his main focus and without it he'd be in a wheelchair. He works on a computer, smiles a lot, and no
Their life changed in an instant and all of ours too, but they keep the fires burning, being involved and enjoying family and grandchildren to the fullest. My sister is a rock....and I pray everyday a small voice will say I CAN TALK AGAIN. He had called her name, and said I love you and various other words here and there,
HAPPY SMILE DAY....things are busy yet but the weather is wonderful. Enjoy your weekend.
