My name is SPC Colby Geeker. After my second deployment to Afghanistan in 2011 I sustained multiple TBI's due to RPG attacks on my dismounted patrols. After returning home I was medically retired from the Army, since then I have not been able to work due to my injuries and have been in and out of the hospital. My beautiful wife has been a life saver, she is my caregiver and takes care of all the daily stuff like shopping, cooking, reminding me to take my meds or any appointments I may have since my memory has been effected. On really bad days when the headaches are to much she helps me take a bath, eat, get dressed, on top of all this she works full time to make sure we have the money needed to live since I am unable to work. She does all this without ever complaining and she always has a smile on her face no matter how bad of a day I am having. February will be our 4th wedding anniversary, when we were married she wanted to go to Walt Disney for our honeymoon because she loves it so much. Unfortunately, I ended up spending 3 weeks at the Mayo Clinic after the wedding and we never got to go. I want to take my wife to Walt Disney World Orlando because she has done so much for me. I want to make this up to her and be able to show her how much I truly appreciate everything she does for me! She is my hero because without her I do not know where I would be.
