I'm so proud of you Dave! You are doing so well! I can't wait to see you and be there for more of your progress! I love you!
I just stumbled across your blog and have been thoroughly inspired. I hope you don't mind, but I have bookmarked your blog so I can follow David's progress. Tell David he has a family rootin' for him in South Carolina!
Standing up!!! WOW!!! So proud of you. I really enjoyed talking with you yesterday and couldn't wait to see the pics today. I knew you could do it! You look great. Keep up the good work, you are making such progress. You should be very proud of yourself. Enjoy you visit with Jamie and I hope to talk with you again soon.

David & Elizabeth,
I am storming Heaven with prayers of healing and thanksgiving for the 2 of you. All of the parishioners at Holy Trinity are praying for you too. Keep up the great progress. I am blessed to have witnessed your beautiful marriage 1 year age.
God bless,
Msgr. Earl
Standing already?!?!?! That is absolutely amazing and such a tribute to his strength and determination...and yours. And that smile is grand to see.
Maybe he can try juggling. DH does and watching him today, I realized that I should have done that for therapy after I had my stroke in 94. It really would have helped movement and coordination.
WOW! Dude, I'm almost speachless -Liz, thank you so much for posting these pictures. Dave, I nearly lost it seeing these pics. You're making such great progress in such short time, it really is a miracle. You're looking awesome buddy, take care and I'll be saying what's up soon.

Much love and many prayers to ya'll! Brandi Murray Bryant
Dear David & Elizabeth,

Liz - I recently found your blog and as a fellow USAF wife, this really hits home. You both are truly an inspiration. I know you must be so proud of Dave and how much he has accomplished in such little time. You are both in our thoughts and prayers.
I just wanted to say congrats on the milestones! Every little thing is a good step in the right direction. I also wondered how your left leg is doing. I also must say the leg looks nice, and you seem like a guy who will walk in no time flat! I hope things keep going well for you and Liz.
Hello,
Don't know you guys, but I found your blog through another and just wanted to say I will be praying for you! Thank you for your service for our country!!! We don't take lightly your sacrifice!
God bless!
