Thanks for sharing a bit of Melanie. Amazing how animals can be a part of our lives, in ways we never imagined. I love watching her eyes. God bless you, and thank you for bringing awareness to Spinal Cord Injuries.
Scott, what determination and firmness you must have….gifts of God. Your Thanksgiving Day will be wonderful, I know, and I can see Our Father in Heaven smiling over you….proud of his son. I’m an Ohioan too and enjoy visiting there to see the green, green, green and the lake. Happy Thanksgiving!
Scott, what an awe-inspiring story and video. Keep up the great work.
You are truely an inspiration! God Bless You and Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

Melanie is so cute! I’m glad you have this little helper. 🙂
Why did the doctor tell you you would most likely spend your life in bed (as opposed to a wheelchair)? Just curious.
Fun video of the two of you.

Melanie is a real charmer. But we have a charmer in our Melanie who just turned 45 Yesterday!! Wish her well if there is a chance.
The Melanie video was very encouraging to all the rest of us who care very much for your progress in recovery. God’s grace is with you daily as you are so selfless in your sharing these milestones along your recovery journey. Keep them coming!
