Building A Bridge

Probably the worse part of now being an amputee is the question of how will I ever get back into my house?  The house sits about 60 feet from the road. You need to go down 7 stairs to get into the yard, then up 7 stairs to reach the front porch.  This will not be possible for me.

On my to do list has been to build a bridge to the road, mostly because Gaelic Girl is having problems walking well, a torn muscle that wraps around the butt and leg - very painful for her.  But, that project was not to start since I got a case of drug resistant staph.  Sigh ...

What is a person to do?

I lack the funds to hire someone to do the job for me now.

Surprisingly, without any input from me - the Church has stepped forward to take on this task for me!  Really?  I was stunned.  My Church has not been this involved that I am aware of!  Work started on Monday, by a host of men from the Church.  Wow.  I am writing this on Tuesday, so the work is not finished yet, but I will post a photo when it is!
