Trish, you are simply amazing! I was not able to read your blog for a while and when I got back on I was so happy for you! The lift that was installed is awesome! I love that you were out on the boat with friends and family enjoying the day! You look great and you are an inspiration to us all. Keep up the great work! Hope to see you soon!
Love,

Trish,
What a nice article about you and such a sweet picture. I'm still thinking of you often and praying for your recovery.

I just read the article - it gave me chills! You see, I fractured 7 vertebra in 1982, riding my 3-wheeler at Whitewater in Palm Spgs., CA. I was 3 months shy of my 19th birthday. I was also riding my (then) Hubby on the back when we hit a berm & launched 50 plus ft.
I suffered compression fractures to 7 vertebra, including T5 & T6, and initially, was unable to move my legs, etc. I DID have nerve response, however (like you...) and, miraculously, was released from the hosp. in less than a month, in a removable "shell" cast, but WALKING!!!
I tell you this to give you HOPE!!! Where there is nerve response, there is a great deal to HOPE for, I believe!! Keep your chin up, dear lady! You CAN DO THIS - and I truly believe in my heart that someday, you too, will overcome this injury & be back up running circles around those 3rd graders! (OK - maybe not running circles, but that is because we are over 35! LOL!)
HOPING & Praying for your FULL recovery!

Hi Trish, Scotty & Family~
I just found out about your accident and this message board. I'll catch up on your story now, but I just want you to know I'm praying for you and thinking of you so much! I hope to find a way to contact you all to see what we can do to help. If anything, I believe we have Pam's info. Love and hugs! Sunny (Ragland) Taylor and family! 480-776-9353 ~ sunnylynn@kw.com

Trish, WOW, now you are a media star as well as superwoman.The news article and photo of you and Scott should be an inspiration to all. And even though many days are so hard, I can see that special smile just lighting up the room and making all of us even more proud of you. Love, Aunt Joy & Uncle Carl
Hey Trish & Scott, What a great article in the newspaper. I'm gathering items now to send for your fundraiser. I'm certainly praying that a lot of money will be raised and you can buy the stim bike. I'm sure it would be a big help to your recovery.
Love to you, Scott, and the boys.

Hi Trish,
I was so glad to see that they did the article about you. So many people will see it and hopefully donate enough money for you to get the bike. We pray for you daily and I know with all the support you have and your determination, good things will come from it.
Love, Laura
Trish, this was a great article and picture of you! I miss seeing your smiling face at Brisas. It was such a pleasure to see you a couple of weeks ago. I think about you all the time and know that you are growing stronger every day. Stop in and see us again, we all miss you!
Love,
