Last Sunday

(Dad, Mom, I, and Rachel at the Conference Center.)

Last Sunday was General Conference (a conference for members of the LDS church to come together to a conference center or listen or watch on T.V. leaders from the church give talks and messages inspired from our Heavenly Father). My Mom, Dad, sister Rachel, and I had the opportunity to go to the last session of conference. I was given the tickets by Elder Christofferson (a leader of the church in the Quorum of the 12 Apostles) and it was the first time (and probably the only time) I had the chance to go to a meeting of conference. The day of my injury, I don’t remember this (I was out of it at the time) Elder Christofferson who was talking at Byu-Idaho’s devotional that next day, flew in that night and then came to the hospital to visit when he had heard that a girl had past out and was in the hospital in Idaho Falls. He has called a few times since the injury to hear how my recovery was coming along which has been way nice of him because knowing that being an Apostle of the Lord they are very busy and I am sure has a lot on his mind all the time! It was wonderful to listen to men and women talk on what the Lord wants us people to hear in these latter days and I am very grateful for that opportunity!
