I’m spending the entire weekend finally collecting, prepping and editing the content from my trip to San Diego with DePuy Synthes.

There’s so much content, it’s going to take me forever to share it all.

If you know me, you know I don’t usually lack things to say, but when I think about this trip, I struggle to find words to articulate how special it was to me. It was the most full circle, best trip of my entire life.

The entire DePuy Synthes team and my soul sister Kourtney made the weekend the best ever.

Little did I know I know after my presentation what the DePuy Synthes team had in store to surprise me with.

Kourtney sent me this photo she took on her phone and I can’t wait to share this special moment with all of you (and no, I did not make the slide on the screen behind me on the stage).

I tried so hard to hold it together to remain professional, but I just couldn’t. I bawled my eyes out right there on stage. I have never experienced a moment filled with so much love. No words to describe it.

My perfect Chloe girl still impacting my life even while she’s in Heaven and touching the lives of those who come to know of her and how special is to me.

When saying yes to this speaking engagement, I had no idea I would leave with an entire family. True angels on Earth. My DePuy Synthes family is one of my greatest treasures and it is the greatest blessing to have them as family.

God has blessed me with most beautiful life far beyond what I could have imagined or deserve. 5 years ago in the PICU on the ventilator, I never imagined this is where He would take me. To the darkest, scariest time of my life to the biggest stage to give Him the glory. Only God!

I can’t wait to share the most special moments of my life with you. Stay tuned - it will be worth the wait.

Welcome to the first episode of my new series, Actually Accessible where I bring you along my travels to see if the hotel room I’m staying at is actually accessible to me. The first property I’m featuring in this series is @westindtw. Kourtney and I had the privilege of staying in the Junior Suite, 1 Bedroom (Mobility Accessible, Roll-In Shower) room. It was a fabulous experience and the Westin at DTW treated us like queens! Overall, I felt this room was pretty accessible for the most part with some improvement, it could be even better. I’d give the accessibility rating of this room a 7/10. 🤗 If you’re a wheelchair user, what is the most important feature of a wheelchair accessible room? For me, I’d say maneuverability of the space with a power wheelchair and a big enough bathroom. And this space delivered on both of these things. Should I review the non-suite (standard) mobility accessible room at this property next? 👀 Let me know what property I should feature in this series next! Here’s to raising awareness to make travel more accessible for wheelchair users, one hotel room at a time! 👏🏻 Thank you to @westindtw for hosting us! *This stay was hosted by The Westin Detroit Metropolitan Airport. All views and opinions are my own. Thank you to @c2visualmedia for helping me film this! #ActuallyAccessible #hotelroomtour #wheelchairtravel #travelblogger #detroitmichigan
