I've never been happier in my life. I've got my wife back.

There's issues with the availability of the right-of-way.

Deep down, I know she's beaten the odds. God definitely had a hand in this.

I asked her if she was in any pain. She signaled no.

I'll never forget what my community has done for us. She's going to be OK.
