(1st Corinthians 10:13). Some practical suggestions. First, if you haven't called "The Scooter Store" yet, you should. Certaily Nick qualifies for a power scooter, which will greatly assist with his getting around. Second, Full-Speed-Ahead with Rehabilitation. I'm sure Nick knows quite well that exercise is the best thing for his diabetes; and that walking by itself is a great exercise. It hurts; it's hard to do; but remember those kids Rehabbing from Iraq war injuries, and it doesn't seem quite so bad, does it? Third, I'm a Dialysis nurse from right here in San Antonio. I'd be happy to help any way I can. And I'll buy the first round when he walks on that prosthesis the first time, too. Deal? Please let me know if there's anything I can do. ~~JD Long~~ As much as this seems to be a terrible thing to lose a leg; remember that (a) when God closes a door, he opens a window (a great line from “The Sound of Music”); and that (b) He does not allow us to be tested beyond what we can bear.

This move is the next step so there is progress and as long as there is progress things are very good. Believe me, I can relate. I will be in touch. That is wonderful news!
