On Friday afternoon Fletcher was videoed by Shepherd Center staff as he was held upright in the standing frame by the "Overhead Hoyer System" (pictured below). The video will be shared with other spinal cord injury facilities to show other uses for the system. While working out for the camera, Fletcher spotted James Shepherd, the center's founder (gentleman pictured on scooter). Of course he called him over. Fletcher can talk to anybody and ask anything. And he did by asking Mr. Shepherd about getting a smoothie machine on-site. He won't be getting free smoothies any time soon, but the request is in~ LOL! We just love you guy :-)
Giving thanks today for the grace of God and recognition to the work done by so many, like Dr. King and Mr. Shepherd who's efforts make the world a better place for each of us!~ Happy MLK Day~
Hey Fletcher,
ReplyDeleteWhat a way to go. You have not because you ask not. Smoothie Machine Uh. I'm sure it is on the way. I see you are getting better and stronger every day. Keep the Prayer's flowing.
Tell Anton the day we heard about him, we have not stopped praying for him. Tell him he must have the faith of a grain of mustard seed. Us praying for him and he does not have the Faith, will fall on death ears. Advise him that we are asking God to fill him with knowledge of his will, spirtual wisdom and understanding. Tell him to beleive it and he will achieve it. What God has done for you, he will do it for him, just keep the Faith.
We love you Anton, we pray God goodness and Mercy will see you thru. NOthing is to hard for GOD. Just Beleive it.
We love you sooooooo much,
Erma, Duck, Shae and Aniyan
