Dear Summer,
It's too hot to have a cold.👎 Officially, it's too hot for anything.
Sincerely, Melting in South Carolina. #fightlikewyatt #paralysis #readyforfall

He's long sitting like a champ. He's smiling, but he hates it. It's hard, and it hurts. He's actually in the middle of bargaining for how much longer he has to wear his RGOs. Sometimes the best things for us are the things we don't like. Sometimes they're the things we dread, but smiling makes it easier. It helps you find the blessing in the mundane, the extraordinary in the ordinary. The hardest things are often evidence of blessings. Therapy is hard, but it is evidence of a blessing. Wyatt is alive and thriving. That's the blessing I remember, especially on the hard days. #fightlikewyatt #paralysis #blessings #extrodinaryordinary

I woke up to find this. I think @americangirlbrand has some work to do. These RGOs are just a little too big for Grace. 😂 It's just a normal day in a home with a spinal cord injury. #fightlikewyatt #paralysis #spinalcordinjury #americangirl

We're working on keeping his lungs nice and clear. Healthy doesn't just happen with a spinal cord injury. Healthy takes effort. #fightlikewyatt #spinalcordinjury

He's home after 2 weeks @shrinersphilly for therapy. I couldn't wait to hug his neck and see him standing in his new RGO braces. #fightlikewyatt #spinalcordinjury #shrinerskid #shrinershospital

Celebrating the 4th in the city where it all started. Happy Birthday America 🇺🇸! #fightlikewyatt #philadelphia #1776 #happy4th

We're flying into the 4th of July! #targetrun #supersister #fightlikewyatt #fightlikeaustin

We're one week into summer, and he has a new haircut. It makes him look a year older. #paralysis #fightlikewyatt

They remind me that laughter is a gift from God. #fightlikewyatt #paralysis #laughdaily

It's been 4 years. On May 17, 2013, our world changed. Wyatt was paralyzed by transverse myelitis, and nothing has been the same since.

This is not a day to mourn what was lost. It is a day to celebrate what is. WYATT LIVED! He survived. His story is not built around what he lost. His story is built upon what he overcame.
*
We've seen the goodness of God in the middle of a the hardest places, and we are thanking Him for bringing us this far. #celebrate #wyattlived #fightlikewyatt #paralysis

Surf Day! #fightlikewyatt #paralysis #wheeltosurf
