From Nancy Matthis

The wife of an injured policeman wants to win a trip to Disney World for her family. Cincinnati Police Sergeant Bryce Bezdek was slammed by a truck about 2 years ago while deploying “stop-sticks” to end a high-speed car chase. Given only a 20% chance to live by his doctors, with his skull broken and his brain swollen and bleeding, he lay in a coma for several weeks. Supported by an outpouring of prayer from his community, he made a miraculous recovery against all the odds. After a year of intensive rehabilitation, he was able to leave the hospital and continue his therapy at home with his wife and two children.

His wife has made a video about his journey and entered it in a contest sponsored by Modern Mom magazine, for which the first prize is a trip to Disney World. It is a well-made video, and worth watching in any event. But by clicking the link and viewing the video, you are actually casting a vote to help this family win their dream vacation. In fact, if you really want to help, you can vote once each day until the 20th. We urge our readers to watch.

Congratulations to Toni J. Bezdek, creator, composer and editor of this powerful video.
