I must admit when I arrived home from the hospital & saw that John had hired guys to construct a wheelchair ramp, I was pretty angry. I was no invalid & didn't want to be treated as one. After I calmed down, I apologized & realized he only loves me & wanted to do what he thought I needed. I've been asking for it to be removed ever since, as I hated being a burden & pushing me up & down that ramp was a burden. Yesterday when Kevin removed it, I was pleasantly surprised how easily I walked down the 6 steps. Coming home & going up them was fairly easy, just took a little more effort than going down. Baby steps, baby steps, for which I thank the Lord each & every day. Go, Ruthie! Go, Ruthie!
