Patricia's Story

Hi from "Mama T"! No one refers to me as "Little Patty Dykes" anymore-Just "Mama T" or "T"! I have been blessed with 5 Great Kids, my oldest now also a member of the United States Army Military Police Corps! Next oldest is heading for Forensic Science Facial Reconstruction, 3rd one gaining speed to become either a Navy Seal or Apache Chopper Pilot, #4 heading for Special Olympics Judo and hopefully the first Special Olympics Sabre Fencer if my research pays off! My youngest and only girl is destined to be some sort of Therapist, as she is VERY Compassionate! I retired from the US Army Medical Corps in 1997 and have been a professional college student since then! Working on a BS in Recreation Therapy and finished a BS in Exercise Physiology in 2001! Have moved all over the South and finally decided on a move out west! Been doing research to get Fencing into the Special Olympics since 2000 and will continue out here in Colorado! May go onto a Master of Divinity with the emphasis on Christian Adaptive Sport and Recreation Ministry! Show me a person with a disability and I show you a person with a lot of heart, the will of God and a desire to live life to the fullest! That is what God has gifted me with is the desire to serve persons with disabilities in Sport and Recreation and I am to serve him and others well! Peace Be With YOU and May God Bless All of Your Days! In regards to the crazy question and answer selections, let me clarify many things! My favorite music is Christian Contemporary and Christian Rock, then Anne Murray, John Denver and James Taylor! I sing choir for church and do Fencing ...Expand for more
as a Ministry and for Research and Outreach! I have Four Dogs which are blessings for Prayers With Paws, my pet therapy ministry I will get under way here in Colorado Springs soon! Need cats too! Especially Disney siamese and Maine Coon Cats-Way Cool!! One Guinea Pig so far! Living in the city, I am slightly bummed, as I want two goats and a pot belly pig for therapy animals as well! Maybe in the near future a ranch in Gunnison, Colorado-I will pray about it! I spend most of my time with my kids, leading in Cub Scouts and Girl Scouts and making Pancake Breakfast on Saturday Mornings! Love cycling and will return to Skydiving hopefully next spring when money is more plentiful and not going into my gas tank!! Disney movies rock, especially Finding Nemo, as I am better known to my children as "Dory"! My entire bedroom has been decorated in Nemo in the passed, so if you find Queen Size Nemo Sheets and a Comforter, send them my way!!!! With many pitfalls in my life, I turned my life over to Jesus Christ fully in 2002! Praise the Lord for then, as my Dad, Jake passed away 4 1/2 months after being "saved"! He is painting the sky blue now with our Lord and not suffering from Cancer anymore! This bummer time actually has strengthened my desires to reach to people with illness and injury! I have enough boo-boos from my Army days and after so that I can relate to folks who are disabled! I am still alive and kicken' and until the Lord calls me home, this is what I am about! A believe or not, I actually grew! I made it to five foot two and about a buck o' five on a good wet day! Love and Blessings, "T"
