Movin’ On Up

March 18, 2004

Mark is continuing to recover at a rapid pace that is amazing both us and the doctors. He has officially been cleared of any chronic injuries and his prognosis is full recovery after rehab! It’s hard to believe that a little over a week later, Mark has been recommended to enter the “acute rehab facility” here at UCI.

March 13, 2004

We were driving home from a movie with friends around 1am on Friday Night when we witnessed a two-car collision on the freeway in front of us. Mark pulled over to the side of the road to offer assistance. The cars were in the right lane of the road, and Mark was standing in the shoulder trying to calm down the driver when a third car came speeding by and did not see the cars in the road. This car braked quickly and fishtailed into the shoulder, hitting one of the cars and throwing Mark nearly 20 . . .

December 26, 2000

Merry Christmas! It’s that time of year again, time for our annual report known as the Christmas letter. And we have lots to report from our house! This past year has brought about many changes.
