To kick off our Love of Self and Neighbor month, we wanted to highlight one way we are helping make our Community Stronger.
We wanted to highlight a special person we have been sponsoring, Suzy Stock. Since we started sponsoring Suzy, she has made amazing progress on her range of motion, and recently hit Personal Records for leg and upper body strength.
In 2021, her group home closed due to staffing, and thanks to help from family and friends, is back on her feet again and has a goal of learning new voice software to help her communicate.
Her advice when dealing with life's challenges, Suzy says to "Never give up, otherwise you will lose all your
momentum."
Awesome Suzy!!
