August 17, 1994. 30 years ago our lives were turned upside down by a tragedy. Not a year goes by that we don’t remember this date, and what it has meant to us. Life is determined by YOU, and what you make of the cards you are dealt with. My mom is truly inspirational. If you have a moment, celebrate her battle and all those that struggle with spinal cord injuries every day. I love you, mom! You are my hero!
