Cassie and Chris 2016

Cassie and Chris 2016

Our Story

It all started in a seminary class in high school, with a "mop-headed boy" and a dancer/singer who sat behind him. As only friends in high school, and then reuniting after Christopher's mission, we were married in the LDS temple in Manti, Utah, and have now been married for over 7 years.

On January 16, 2013, Cassie was diagnosed with a stroke. As a result, many of our dreams and goals were delayed. But we were not to be deterred. Chris graduated in 2014 and currently works at Imagine Learning, and Cassie graduated in 2016 and now volunteers at the hospital while maintaining the apartment.

As we now commence on our journey to adopt, please spread the word! Comments are welcome as expressions of love and support. Most important is the faith and prayers offered in our behalf. So we invite you to share in our journey, as we look back in time to the beginning of the emergency and then update you to the joys and trials we face together. This is our story.

A "Blistering" Few Days

The diameter of this blister is about 
the size of a 50 cent piece
A couple days ago, Ariana and I took walk, measuring almost 1 mile. I wore my new tennis shoes and I regretted it for that last half mile. When I got home and I took my AFO and my socks off, I realized what I had done: a big huge blister on my right foot. I will be stubborn for the rest of my life time, because I go through things and I don't learn, or at least I learn slowly.  It has sure not helped me, because when I walk I can barely stand the pain.

Grandma Condit is now resting in Spanish Fork Cemetery.  I cried a lot; it was emotional for me because I cannot keep my emotions down.  My stroke has some influence on me still in these types of settings as I am more emotional.  I know that it is just her body and that she is free from earthly pains.  I feel happy for her but sorrow for myself.  I thought that she might have gone in January, but I feel that due to my circumstance that she waited.so that I could be part of the funeral. The service was nice and many family and friends paid their respects to my grandma.
