My wife would come to see me and I would ask her about the bills and she would say with all the donations and stuff things were ok for now, I would tell her everything is going to be ok. While I was in UAB we had got ourselves a Lawyer and he was working on the case. But he said it could take a while.

After 10 days at DCH Northport I got to go home. This was another answer to prayer. I wanted so bad to be at my own house and in my own room.  I still could not walk and was on a lot of pain killers and other medication but I was home. A few weeks after I got home I was able to go to a Motorcycle ride for me that was put together by TPD. I was not expecting much but when I got there I was overwhelmed, 267 motorcycles had showed up. This was the biggest motorcycle ride in the history of Tuscaloosa, the weather was perfect. The ride raised almost $8,000.00. This money would help us pay the bills I had dug for another few months. Again I thanked God for his faithfulness and knew everything was going to be OK. I was shocked at all the people that came up to me at the ride that knew me. I did not know I had so many friends.

The first Sunday I was able to go to church I was overwhelmed by everybody coming up to me and saying they were praying for me. The love I felt can not be explained. I wanted to tell everybody that this is what I had asked for but couldn’t. I am a very shy and closed person. I keep my feeling and emotions to myself.

Well several months went by and my lawyer called and said he had good news and wanted to come by the house. He came that evening and said that the insurance company had paid. The lady that had hit me was uninsured and my insurance company had paid 4 uninsured motorist claims to me. He said that this was a God thing because I was partially at fault and they do not have to pay. He said they had not asked but a couple of questions and he had received the checks. The money we received from this paid off all my debt. Everything was paid in full except my house. I got exactly what I had prayed for. GOD DOES ANSWERS PRAYERS. Now I am still praying for God to show me what he wants me to do with my life, he will let me know when it is time.

I have also found from this experience that I have some very good friends that I will never be able to repay. I have a church family that was very supportive of me and my family through this very tough time. I have a wife that put up with a lot of crap from me and stood by me and I could not have made it with out her. I have several very close friends that developed out of this.  I will never be able to say this to the people because of who I am. Like I said I am very shy and closed. I do not show or share my emotions well. I have written this to tell my story because I could never tell anybody it face to face. There are several people I did not mention by name that have had a positive effect on my life. I could go on and on about different people but in the end GOD should receive all the credit.

I will close with this. After I was able to walk a little I went down front of the church and as I was walking back up our praise team leader said in front of the church, it was good to see me walking and he made some statement about how with everything I had been through he had never once heard me complain or ask God why me. Well now you know why
