| An Inspirational Story: - Quote :
- Hello my name is Janet and about 4 years ago I was living alone with my 2 cats in Wisconsin. On one of the coldest winter nights, I was outside and slipped and fell on the ice. I guess I landed on the back of my head.
The next day, Sunday, my parents had become worried about me because they could not reach me by telephone. They came over and realized something had happened to me because my hands and knees were all bloody – which was caused by my crawling to my apartment the night before after falling.
They took me to the Emergency Room where the last thing I remember was the doctor cutting off the rings on my fingers. When I asked why, she replied that “your fingers are frostbitten”. The doctors told my parents that I would probably not survive the night, but I did. I understand I was in ICU for a day and then in the hospital for a month. I had to learn how to walk, talk and eat. I learned that I had a brain stem injury and all my fingertips had turned black from frostbite. Luckily they did not have to amputate my fingers.
After the month in the hospital, I was told that I could not live on my own, so I was moved to a nursing home. There I underwent physical, speech and occupational therapy. One night I was working in the computer room for us “residents”, and I noticed a man sitting in a chair watching me. He was there visiting his mother who had been in a car accident and was also residing in the same nursing home. Ray asked me if he could e-mail me and I said yes. He e-mailed me and asked me out to dinner. So every weekend when he came up to visit his mother, he would take me out to dinner. After I had been in the nursing home for 8 months, I was finally released to live on my own. And from that point on Ray and I have been together ever since. And that is how I found my one true love in a nursing home.
This is Rex Barker, reminding you that everything happens for a reason, even if we don’t understand why. Often one has to undergo very difficult challenges to bring him or her to a soul mate or further along the mission that one has in this world.

| The path to a soul mate is weird
But in this case, wheelchair accesable. | |

| AWWW that was so beautiful! I say that even amongst the challenges we often undergo, God's hands are in it and make things happen for us, if we keep focussing and listening to His gentle guidance.
May they always have a blissful blessing from God. | |
