Blessed
I never imagined my life this way.

I married Jaina Solo ten years ago. It was a match made in the stars. Our first two children were born, twins, Chrysti and Conner. Our world was perfect. Two years later, Ani was born, named for her uncle and Jaina's friend, Anni who died during the war. Then three years later, our son Tre was born. Life was perfect.

Until the crash, that is.

Jaina and I were on our second honeymoon. We were on Corellia. It was summer. I was driving a hovercar to our beach house on the third day. It was late at night. Halfway there, another hovercar came barreling towards us. I tried to avoid it, but we crashed anyways. I can't remember what happened next. I awoke in a hospital room, numb. I asked the nurse about Jaina. She could not be dead.

She was next to me. The nurse pulled the curtain back. Jaina smiled back at me, face covered in bandages. Tears were rolling down her cheeks.

I asked her if she was alright. She said yes. She then gave me the news that would forever change my world.

I was paralyzed from the waist down.

From that moment on, my life changed. I learned how to use a hoverchair. I said goodbye to my clawcraft. My children couldn't understand why I could no longer run with them. I slipped into a state of depression.

Thank the Force for Jaina. She tried and tried to get through to me. It was when Ani fell and got a concussion when I snapped out of it. I was terrified as we waited in the hospital. I was afraid she would die. I realized then how lucky I was to be alive.

Now I am racing through the backyard of our home on Corellia with my children. Jaina made several modifications to my chair. She had made so many sacrifices for me. I hope to do the same for her.

"Daddy?"

I look down to see my little girl, Ani, staring at me, "Yes, sweetie?"

"Mommy says its time to come in."

I let Ani hit the controller to make the chair move. I smile at her as she skips along side me. I am truly blessed.
My children always speak to those with disabilities. They care for everyone. Everyone has learned something from this, but mostly I. I have learned that I can overcome any obsticale. Sure, there are rough days, but I take the good with the bad. It all turned out in the end.

"Daddy! Come on!" Ani insisted as she waited at the door, "Conner is going to eat it all!"

I chuckled, "Don't worry, my dear, that won't happen."

Yes, I am blessed.
