It was written from the experiences that my son, and I, went through as he recovered after being wounded in Iraq. In the beginning of the book I flash back to times in our lives which define how we were able to overcome the many adversities of this extraordinary journey.
This is an inspirational story that will have you laughing one moment and crying the next. But, the one thing that stands out is that God's hand was guiding us through every step. And still is.(less)

A Dream Not Imagined Come True

As this year winds to an end charitable donations fill our minds and hearts. We all want to know our dollars are being spent well and as we intend them to be.
