7 Attention all Mozambique customers: Visit Produkta Trucks for all your commercial needs in parts, service and sales. Tracy Todd write-up brought to you by PRODUKTA TRUCKS A prayer One whole day is all I ask For those of you who don t know, at the age of 28, I was left totally paralysed from the neck down after a tragic car accident. I often feel as if I have lived two lives. I guess, in a sense, I have. At the time of the accident I was happily married and Mom to a 10-month-old son. I was a young, active and independent woman. I was a talented sportswoman and had a promising career in Education. My perfect world was shattered on that fateful Easter Monday, 13 th April Amazingly, it is still, after all this time, the small things the things that most people take for granted that I miss the most in life. I woke up this morning with this prayer in my heart Dear Lord If only YOU gave me back the use of my arms I don t need my legs for just 24 hours I would I would wrap my arms around my 12-year-old son and hold him to me tightly. I would squeeze his cheeks between my hands and kiss him all over his face. I would play with his hair and hold his hand in mine. I would hug him for the entire 24-hour period if he would allow me to but you know what boys are like at this age hugs and kisses from Mom must be restricted! I would wipe my tears of joy and blow my nose holding tissues in both hands. I would hug all my family and friends. I would put my arm around all the special people, who have been so good to me, to thank them for their ongoing love, care and support. I would linger in a hot bubble bath and wash my own hair and cleanse my face. I would brush my teeth on my own. I would dress myself. I would apply my own makeup. I would blowdry and style my hair in my own way. I would go out into the garden and dig into the soil with my bare hands and fingers. I would pick my roses, hold them to my nose and sniff their divine scent. I would eat all the ribs I could and savour each bite. Then I would pick the bits of meat out of my teeth with a toothpick. I would brush my teeth and floss them again. I would hold a steaming cup of coffee to my lips with both hands and sip it slowly. Or, maybe a tall glass of bubbly. I would slam the door of my bedroom shut so that I could just be alone even if it were for just a few minutes. I would open the door and slam it shut again! This would be a great physical release for so many pent up emotions. The hardest thing to come to terms with has been my total loss of privacy and independence. I would hold a pen in my hand and sign my name on a piece of paper 100 times. I would handwrite a letter to my son so that he can never forget what his Mom s handwriting looked like and he could always read how special he is and how much I love him. I would pat my dogs, stroke their fur and hug them. I would play with their ears, hold their snouts in both hands and place their wet noses on my cheek. Then, I would contentedly wipe their slobber off my face. I would put my hair behind my ears, take it out and put it back again. I would scratch my head and rub my nose. I would hug my son again. And again. I would clap my hands for joy and put my hands together as I pray to YOU to thank YOU for the many Angels and blessings YOU have brought into my life. I would The list is endless! AMEN I share this prayer with all of you, not to solicit any sympathy or pity. I hate pity! I share my prayer in the hopes of reminding you to STOP for a moment. THINK of all your blessings. APPRECIATE what you can do. SEE the beauty in your life, your heart and that of others and truly LIVE. Take NOTHING for granted.
