My wife is a hero. I think I have known this for a long time now. My wife is a hero in the way she has helped me to raise our two handicapped son’s with so much caring, love, and strength over the years. My wife is a hero in the way she has stuck by me through all the years of struggle and financial hardship we have gone through in our marriage. My wife is a hero too in how she decided to follow a life long dream and become an E.M. T after 17 years of marriage and bringing 3 beautiful children into this world.

Even though she was already in her mid-thirties and working a full time job my wife took the E. M. T courses for months on her free days and got her certification. She started on a new career of helping others with her talented hands, intelligent mind, and kind heart. I think I got the full view of just what a hero she is when we were on a family outing and watched a horrible car accident happen right in front of us. Without a second thought my wife sprang into action. She had my daughter call in the location of the wreck while she ran to the scene to help the injured. I watched on with pride as she did her job with skill, caring, and calm. I felt honoured to be married to such a wonderful woman.
