Check this kid out!

Here is what Luke's therapy consisted of today, and this is not supposed to be the hard part of the day! I have to say...he always loved the monkey bars. Looks like Mike needs to get the welder out! Luke has been so pleasant the last three days (knocking on wood as I write this.) He has been very smiley, laughing, and joking...Love it!! Let's pray he keeps up with this good mood!

Yeah...I did it!

This is what Luke does when he wants to tune out the ladies yapping!

Tunnel by Third Day

I won’t pretend to know what you’re thinking
I can’t begin to know what you’re going through
I won’t deny the pain that you’re feeling
But I’m gonna try and give a little hope to you

Just remember what I’ve told you
There’s so much you’re living for

There’s a light at the end of this tunnel
There’s a light at the end of this tunnel For you, for you
There’s a light at the end of this tunnel
Shinin’ bright at the end of this tunnel For you, for you
So keep holdin’ on

You’ve got your disappointments and sorrows
You ought to share the weight of that load with me
Then you will find that the light of tomorrow
Brings a new life for your eyes to see
So remember what I’ve told you
There’s so much you’re living for

What's In a Name?

Many of you have asked me where the name Gladiator comes from...here you go. When Luke first got hurt he was transported by Air-E-Vac to Maricopa Medical Center. When he arrived his condition was extremely critical. His lungs and heart were failing. By God's grace, he survived all of that. One of the night nurses, Terry, who was one of our very favorites at the "Copa," as they call it, told Mike and I one night that Luke is a real gladiator to have survived what he did. The name stuck! We believe because of the gladiator in him, he will pull through this and do everything little boys are meant to do! Believe...you are part of this miracle, just by praying for Luke.
