Our sweet couple first met in 2003 while both studying to be teachers. After they graduated, they took jobs at the same school began getting to know one another. They immediately hit it off and started dating in secret. They quickly fell in love and spent the next few years deepening their relationship. They were married in 2007 and went on to have two beautiful children.

Fast forward to 2020. Mike was on a rafting trip with his brothers when he suffered a massive seizure. He was transported to the emergency room where they discovered a cancerous tumor on his brain.

The last couple of years have taken such a toll on Rebecca and Jim’s life. In addition to another brain surgery, Jim has experienced countless seizures, incredibly difficult chemotherapy and radiation and the loss of his memory.
