Congratulations, John!!


Just wanted to give props to my hardworking, loving, devoted, funny, and very smart husband. For the past 1.5 years, he has been taking science and math classes so that he could apply to grad school for physical therapy. After much thought and research, John realized that his calling was to the health field, specifically physical therapy. Since making the decision, he has done a great deal of studying, working with OTs and PTs, and taking the necessary steps to get to grad school.

About 2 weeks ago, he got news from UW that he was on their alternate list, number 28 to be exact. This means that he will get in, if they reach his number and enough people drop off from the list. There were 380 applicants this year, meaning that he beat out 85% of them. I am so proud of him and all of the work he has done. He will find out in the next several weeks if he will start school in the fall. We're still waiting to hear back from UPS (University of Puget Sound), since their deadline for applications was about a month after UW's.

Each day, I thank God for giving me the gift of such a wonderful man. God bless you, John.
