What a sweet kitty to come to the hospital and make me feel better. A big thank you to your pet parents for bringing you to see me.

In 2009, I was involved in a head-on collision. The only thing I remember following the accident while being airlifted to Denver was talking to the EMT, Robert. I was telling him about projects I wanted to do for kids involving plants and animals because they are so healing. He told me it was a good idea and wanted to help. He told me about his wife and that he had 4 dogs. He asked me if I realized that I had been in a bad accident. I said, No....then I drifted off to sleep.

Thank goodness for all the wonderful therapy I received, along with the team of doctors. It took me 6 years to walk again. When I realized what had happened to me, I cried and cried. I couldn't let myself get depressed. I stayed as positive as I could. I would focus on healing one thing at a time.

One day, I woke up from a nap to find a lady with a huge harp playing to me. I seriously thought I had gone to heaven.

The guitar music therapy soothed me too, but my tears flowed and flowed. I told myself that this wouldn't be forever.

I received massage therapy with essential oils, which uplift your spirit. Fresh air and sunshine are very important for healing. I had to get out of the city. Back home while in rehab, the nurses moved my bed so I could see the beautiful full moon.

Beautiful flowers give you something nice to focus on if you've been sick or injured. I guess I had to put my projects to the test, that plants and animals are very healing.
