Nathan
Three years ago, my little brother Nathan was in a serious car accident that left him in a coma for a week, 6 weeks in the hospital, and months of physical therapy. Since then he has turned his life around and done great things as he considers his life a second chance. One of the many things that came from his accident was his desire to become a physical therapist. He felt he had an inside edge that came from having to learn to walk and eat again. Nathan, and all my brothers, loves wrestling. He is able to help out a young former wrestler who is paralyzed from the neck down. He loves what he does and has big dreams that included getting into the Physical Therapist program at Idaho State University. Out of over 70 applicants they chose 25 and last week he got the letter that he has been accepted for this fall. He has worked so hard having to learn things over again that he had forgotten and persevered. This July he will graduate with his Bachelor's degree from BYU-Idaho. I'm so proud of him and all he's done and is going to do!

What a neat story Chelsea! Tell your brother Congratulations!!
That's awesome that he's worked through this physical trial. I remember you telling me when it happened. Thanks for the update on him. I'm glad that he's doing well.
That's great..... He's awesome for having overcome and finding the desire to help others do the same. Thanks for sharing! :)
oh yay--that's awesome! I can't believe it took me this long to get to your blog, but somehow it wasn't listed in my blogger viewer, so all this time I thought you had stopped blogging! Oops! :)
