Rex, I know you probably get tired of hearing what a great inspiration you are, but you really are. I had put my life on hold for 22 yrs to take care of parents and my adorable special needs nephew. But now after dad passing & still taking care of the other two, I know it is my time to share a story that needs to be told & shown. You have inspired me to take out the notes and what is in my mind and share it to the world to give them hope as I know it will. It is so powerful and & haven't seen any movies like it. Thank you and God Bless your efforts! Also, I know your probably to busy writing other things, but I would appreciate your ideas to help me find a screenwriter to help me put it together. Robert
