Rock Climbing, That's Right!


Yesterday was Garren's official one year anniversary. When we asked him what he wanted to do to celebrate, true to Garren's amazing drive and attitude, he said he wanted to try to rock climb at Inner Peaks indoor gym. So, of course, we took him. What a triumph to show how far he's come this year.

Through it all we are so thankful for you. You have helped in so many ways. Foremost, we thank you for your prayers. We thank you for your love, your kind and encouraging comments, visits, money to help with medical expenses, food, gas cards, house cleaning, vehicle help, playdates for Kelsey, rides for Kara, cards, posters, bracelets, t-shirts, 5k, golf tournament, skate night, food events and other fundraisers. The list goes on and on. Words cannot express our appreciation. Thank you for standing with us and we ask that you continue through the long haul.

We thank the Lord and praise Him for where Garren is right now in his recovery and we continue to fervently ask Him to restore Garren's swallow and balance.

God is good and in control.

We are so thankful for Garren's progress,have been keeping up with it for the past year! We found out about his injury, while visiting our Granddaughter's church in New Albany, MS,Feb.24,2011. We have been praying daily for Garren and
the family. I am Gary's first cousin and I talk to Aunt Earlene,
to hear from the family also.
We know this healing is a miracle
and praise God! Ruby Janes Simmons
