Brad's employer, Carolina Therapy Services, held a huge fund raiser with benefits going to Carter's medical bills. Tickets were sold across North Carolina for ACC basketball tickets, a gift basket, or a cash prize. Brad was joined for the big drawing Tuesday night by CTS's vice president, Kim Schmidlin; director of operations, Michelle Williams; and clinical specialist, Joy Lane; and their spouses. Unfortunately, due to Kellie's work schedule, she was unable to attend (and had to also miss out on dinner from our favorite, PF Chang's).
CTS raised a large sum of money, which all went to pay Carter's Duke bills. We are just awestruck at the effort that was put into this. We even found out that many people back in New Bern and in Brad's facilities were in on it for quite a while before we even found out what was going on! They are better at keeping secrets than we thought! :)
A huge thanks to CTS, Kim, Michelle, and everyone who had a hand in putting this fund raiser together and who donated to it. Also a huge thanks to Joy Lane and Kenneth Lee, who donated their prizes back to Carter to further increase the money for his medical bills. We are both extremely blessed to be a part of a great company like CTS. It is always said that everyone is like family there, but it really takes a situation like what we've been through to prove that it is not just lip service.
We can never thank all of you enough for everything you have done for us and Carter. We truly couldn't have done it without you!
