My fiancée, Mike, turned his life around, from drugs to a degree and leads by example. A motorcycle accident left him with serious injuries. Though the bones healed, the pain resulting from this seems to be a constant companion. With determination and courage, he keeps on plugging away at his classes to get his bachelor's degree. He tries to be there for his kids in so many ways: encouraging and guiding with rules as well as sharing hugs. Mike shares his vast knowledge (and the actual vegetables) of his gardening experience along with the multitude of things he has learned with anyone who asks. People aren't perfect, but Mike is a wonderful example of trying your best, even on bad days, to get through, past and around the negative's in life; to make life better for you, yours and those around you. He proves that with determination, you can do it!
