Still progressing...

Elder Fife is still progressing fantastic. He is back in Utah for now and is doing rehab therapy three times a week down in Provo. He has a strong desire to serve at the Referral Center near the MTC. He can continue to rehab while he is there and will be able to serve his mission that he has been called to.
Our last week in Savannah, Leilani of Leilani K. Photography took some photos of Cory for us and the Ronald McDonald House.



As you can see, Cory's smile is coming back. I don't remember him being that much taller than me!
Elder Wirthlin gave a talk in General Conference of October 2008 Come What May, and Love It.
In it, he was providing counsel to a daughter that was facing some grave adversity. He wrote,
“The simple secret is this: put your trust in the Lord, do your best, then leave the rest to Him.”
A video of the talk can be viewed.
Our reaction to adversity in our lives determines how it impacts us. We can choose to allow this to devastate our lives, or we can look to the savior and the strength we can draw from this. Our son has taught us innumerable lessons these past months. We have been strengthened by so much love and compassion from people everywhere.
Thank you again,
Dave and Linda
