Our Gift to Mike
When we visited Mike for Barbaro's Celebration, I had purchased one of those digital photo frames and filled it with all the pictures we had posted during his hospital stays and our visits. One sleepless night many months ago, while Mom and Cathy were in Maryland with Mike, I made a "photo story" for Cathy to play for him on her laptop using Windows Movie Maker (my first and only experience with that program!). It was very therapeutic for me at the time. Cathy found the CD recently and sent it to Mike a few weeks prior to our visit and he played it often for his friends. Since this new frame could hold movies, I somehow figured out how to convert it so it would play on the frame too. Doubt I could do it again, but it worked! Mike loved the frame so much that I took it back to add pictures from that magical weekend. If anyone has pictures of him, his family, or themselves with him, please email me a copy to nrehm@century21properties.com so I can add them to the photo part of the frame too! Mike asked me if I could share the movie on his blog and since I never say no to by brother, I figured out how! So, here it is, set to the music of his favorite song, I Can Only Imagine. I love you baby brother. Nancy

Nancy & Mike -
That was awesome!! Thanks for sharing the photos and your experiences with us all.
Mike, I hope this note finds you getting stronger by the day! I still grin like a cheshire cat when I think of you at Del Park - you and your family are such wonderful people!!!
I have to get back to work but wanted to log in quickly to say Hi and hope all is going well!
Take care!

Very nice, Nancy! I think you are now our resident computer guru.
Mike, I hope you are getting stronger every day. Elizabeth
Mike: I was thrilled to see you at Del.Park. I love the FsOB but your smile that day alone made the trip worthwhile. I wish you continued strength on this road.
Mike's Family: You are awesome!
That was awsome! I loved it and the video and the song. Everytime I hear that song I think of you, Mike!!! You are a great representation of what Jesus can do for people, and I know that you will wear that mantel well.
Mike & family-the main reason I was sad not to go to Delaware Park was that I did not get to meet you inspiring people. I appreciate the pic/vid so much, it made me feel more like I was able to "meet" Mike. I thank you Nancy for the effort you put into making the youtube video for us here that read Mike's blog. I certainly hope that with this ongoing year, Mike is growing stronger and feeling more like he can do anything he desires now! We are all so proud of you Mike!

Hey Mike and family,
Mike,
How about telling us how rehab is going and your weekly rides with Alex? He seems like a great friend to have on your side!
Try typing on the computer. That little bit you did after the DelPark celebration was great!
Thinking of you.....love and prayers to you and your family.
