Great Accomplishment!

Over twenty-five years ago our oldest daughter Rebekah was diagnosed as Hearing Impaired/ Deaf. We were told by the professionals that Rebekah would never talk, learn to read or graduate from High School. Though some professionals may know best, this one didn’t take Rebekah’s determination and ability to persevere into account when making the prognosis. We believed that the Lord had a different plan for Rebekah. Among Rebekah’s many accomplishments she is totally oral, has learned to read, graduated from High School and this month graduated from Angelo State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in the Department of Teacher Education and Interdisciplinary Child Development. Woo Woo… Rebekah! We are so proud of you! (Sorry Dad missed the photo shoot because he was getting the car for us.)
