I just found out about Kim a couple of weeks ago, through her older brother's friend Sue. I spoke to Kim's niece last night, and just found out about this site. Not only was I happy to hear about all of the love and how many lives Kimmy has touched (you guys and gals all ROCK!), but I was happy to hear about such a vocal dive community online!
(yes, we DO scuba dive in Arizona! LOL )
I've known Kim since she was about a 3 foot tall, little 4 year old toe-head. I've seen this little girl grow up to be one fine woman, who's zest for life is unmatchable. As a diver myself, as well as a physical therapist for the last 18 years, I am completely amazed at the remarkable progress she seems to be making, based on the comments on some of the threads here.
My friends, Kim is a walking, talking miracle. She is truly one for the record books. I can only imagine what some of my professional collegues there at Scripps are thinking about her rehab progress....steady, cautious, but hopefull full recovery someday.
She is one, remarkable fighter. I have no doubt, with this kind of progress, that she'll be back to her old, mischevous self again before too long.
(actually, it already does sound like it, wheelie girl! LOL :banana: )
Kim, if you see this, girl, keep up the good work!! Sue H. is camping out at my house tonight on her way back to Texas (she tried getting in touch with your Mom...I'll try too!), we are thinking and praying for you!! :angel2:
Love ya kid!!
