Tessa’s Story

This was a life-changing event for Tessa and for me. To watch Tessa grow in her independence and see her ear-to-ear grin made me cry. This was something that Tessa had wanted to do for many years, and she has the scars of past attempts to prove it. In fact, it was her first comment when I told her we had the opportunity to go and learn how to ride a bike: “What about the scars, I don’t want any more scars.”

I am so grateful to all involved with the camp for allowing us the opportunity to make Tessa’s dream a reality.
