This song has been one of the most difficult songs that I've ever written. In fact, I didn't even know if I should, or could write it. 
 
Back on March 23, 2020, my wife Vicki was in a horrific car accident in which she nearly lost her life. She had suffered several fractures, and internal injuries.  But the most serious issue was that she had also suffered a severe traumatic brain injury.

I was told by the resident neurologist that was helping to save Vicki, that this injury was going to be a life-changing event.  There was not much more he could say. There were no false illusions that Vicki would wake up and "be good as new." In fact, he said she may never recover.

What the doctors didn't count on was the tenacity of my wife to survive. Through several surgeries, a coma, to physical rehabilitation, and other obstacles that no person should have to go through, Vicki has worked incredibly hard to gain back some of the things that were taken from her in that accident. 

We, as a couple, have experienced many ups and downs during this recovery. But the one thing that helped us turn the corner, was love. Our love for each other propels us forward to each new day. 

We understand that we are going to have pain and sorrow and grief shadowing our steps. But we walk forward in love - together - and that is what will get us through it all.
