Visiting Adam!

I know the majority of you who read our blog know Adam Stead. Laine Wilson and I got the opportunity to fly to Tampa yesterday and visit with him for a couple of hours. I am in total Awe what a miracle that guys is. We stayed for about two hours most of the time talking about old times at NGCSU. He was laughing, smiling and being the Adam we know. Adam actually brought up things that Laine and I had totally forgotten about. He is still the "sarcastic" Adam we all know and is still really quick with his come backs. We also got to meet Cohen his sweet little boy and his beautiful wife Carrie. What an amazing person she is. Stronger that I would ever be. For all of you moms out there prepare for you chin to about to drop....after all of what Carrie has gone through in the last 2 months.....girlfriend is still nursing!! Wow, that in itself tells you what determination she has. I gave up after 6 weeks with no traumatic event in my life.

That all being said please continue to pray for Adam and his family. He has made great progress but still has a ways to go. Apparently he hates therapy, which does not surprise me. We all know how strong willed he is. I know the outcome of this is going to be so wonderful, but right know I can't imagine how hard it is.

It's so crazy how you know there is a war going on and you appreciate what these men and women are doing for us. It's sad it doesn't really hit home until something personally affects you. It blows my mind that people like Adam go over to fight a war for me and my family and come home injured and still want to go back and do it again. It takes a special women like Carrie to be willing to let her husband go fight in a war for our freedom. What an awesome day we had yesterday but it definitely gives me a different perspective on things. Our God is SO good, and what a testimony Adam Stead is going to have.
