Happy Birthday Susan!

Susan has been married to Jason's Dad for 21 years. She is Jason's second Mom. Susan is such a strong lady that has endured a lot in her life. I just want to share some of things she has endured... when she was 19 she fell while rock climbing and was told she would never walk again. She now walks with a limp. It is truly amazing everything she can do and has done with this disability. Right around the time my Mom passed away from cancer, Susan was diagnosed with a rare type of cancer in her colon. She went through chemo and radiation treatments. We are so grateful that she is now cancer free! Then in 2005, she lost her oldest son at the young age of 25. She loved Darrick so much and was a good Mother to him. Through all this, she has truly stayed positive and looked for ways to serve others through her experiences. She is an inspired writer and has always stayed true to her religious beliefs. We love you Susan, Grandma, and Mom. We are so thankful to have you in our lives!
