Therapy Update: I'm Back in Therapy!!!

Hello World!
How are you all doing today?

Well, if the title of this post hasn't already given away what I want to say, I'd like to say it Boldly!!!
I am Now BACK FOR PHYSICAL THERAPY at Project Walk Dallas!!!!

I want to say a BIG THANK YOU to everyone of you that donated in my Therapy funds to help me go back to therapy.
When I decided to start the fund raiser, I honestly didn't know what would happen.
I Took a step of faith after praying and after so many people suggested I start the fund raiser.

I am still so amazed at how many people donated and shared the page with their friends!
I truthfully can't thank you enough!!! May the Almighty God Bless you all Abundantly, and I pray that whenever you need help, God will send you an helper Immediately!

I decided to start therapy before I reached the goal I set on the fund raising because I was ready to get things started.
Today (The 18th of March) was my first day back there, and as I type this, the pains in my body tells me I am indeed doing INTENSIVE Work-out, not just "Back to functional state therapy". Lol...

I am mentally ready for this, and I pray that the Lord God Almighty in his infinite mercies will crown my effort  with success. The GOAL is to WALK Again, and I am keying in my faith and putting in all my physical effort to achieve this goal.
Please keep me in your prayers, and I know that Soon and Very Soon, I will share my testimony and invite you all to come and dance with me.... and oh yes, Eat some food and be merry. :-D

Here's a photo collage I made from my day at therapy Today.


The pictures obviously don't show you all that I did in 2 hours, but I Hope it's good enough.
I'll try my best to Document my progress and I'll keep on updating you via THIS blog.
As I type this, I am still in awe of how far God has brought me and once again, I truly truly pray that he crowns my effort with success.

The Fund Raiser Page is still LIVE and I will leave it Going at least until the Goal is reached.
So if you still want to donate, Please Go ahead and DONATE HERE.
Even after the goal has been reached, Please do not hesitate to donate. I hope that I won't need the Two Months of therapy because God is able to do above and beyond, but I'd like to have enough money should I need to do more than two months of therapy.
I hope that's understandable.

Anyhoo.... I am all smiles despite the pain I feel in my body from my first day. This is truly an amazing journey that I'm glad I have the opportunity to embark on.
AGAIN, I SAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL SO VERY VERY MUCH!!!!

Till Later, God Bless.

It's coming a bit late, but HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

I pray that this year will be a fruitful and prosperous one for us all in Jesus name.

Just a little update today.
I would like to thank everyone who has donated to the Get Lizzy Back to Therapy Funds.
A major thank you to everyone who has shared the page countless and numerous times! You guys are all awesome!!!

I'm doing my best to keep sharing the page, and I am so happy that the fund raising is going well so far.
I pray that we'll gather the said amount by the date I posted on there.

The new year has started well so far for me and I can only praise the name of God.

Here's a picture of me at church on the first sunday of the year...

I love wearing tailored native outfit. They fit so well and are comfortable even on the wheelchair.
I also have a Gele Philosophy, lol.. If you're going to wear a gele, MAKE IT BIG!! Gotta Love Geles (that is the Headtie on my head).


And here's a Picture I just took Yesterday. :-)

Till Later, God Bless.

Update: I Want To Go Back To Therapy

Hello World...

How are you all doing? Hope great?
Today's post is about a step I hope to take in the next couple of month.

I found out about a place called PROJECT WALK a while back. They help people with spinal cord injury to recover, be strong,  and hopefully walk again.

When I found out about them, they were in AUSTIN, TX, and that was kind of far away from me.
Also when I found out, I was still in school and couldn't even pursue the opportunity because I wanted to finish my Nursing degree.

Anyhoo, Fast forward to after graduation... I discovered that project walk now has a branch in Dallas, TX, which is a WHOLE lot more closer to me.
I was happy and decided to go over there for a session.
Here's a picture of me at project Walk.



After my session there, I couldn't go back because of the out-of-pocket funding.
They don't take insurance and require each person to pay out-of-pocket.

When I posted the above picture on my facebook page and instagram as a way to tell my friends on there and inspire them that FAITH without WORKS is Nothing, I was amazed at the amount of people that sent me messages saying they were willing to donate to get me back to therapy.

With this show of kindness from people and after months of waiting and thinking hard about therapy, I finally decided to start a Get Lizzy Back To Project Walk Fundraising page.

My life since the car accident has been a long and interesting journey, But through it all, I have been able - by the grace of God - to maintain my faith that I will walk again.

It has been a trying period in my life, but GOD has been faithful and helped me through so much. I Thank God for wonderful family members, friends, and well wishers all around me.

As I stated before, I got my Bachelors of Science in Nursing degree despite being on the wheelchair, and I continue to push myself - Lol...ha. I just said PUSH - But... Anyhoo, I try not to place limitations on myself.

I am a firm believer that with GOD, all things are possible. And this is one of the main reasons why I went to project Walk. I believe that I will walk again, but I also know that Faith without work is nothing.


If you didn't click the previous link, Please CLICK HERE to be directed to the Fundraising page I started to get me back to Project Walk.

My prayer is that, doing this, coupled with my faith as well as God's Mercies will Get me back on my feet and walking again.

After I get the funds, I'll go to Project Walk, and Be sure to keep you all update through my blog.

Please keep me in your prayers.

I'll greatly appreciate whatever amount you choose to donate.

God Bless you and thanks for reading/Donating.

With Love, 
Till Later, Lizzy.
