A Note from Mom: “My son found Stepping Stone, a sanctuary that brought him back to life.”

September 18, 2015

A former resident’s mother shares her story.

In the last newsletter we shared a resident’s story. Here is a note given to us by that Resident’s Mom:

One never knows what the future has in store for you and your loved ones.

During one of the saddest times in the life of my family, a miracle happened. My son found Stepping Stone, a sanctuary that brought him back to life. Stepping Stone is the place where he found love and encouragement, and was looked up to, not down to. It’s where he learned how to love himself again and to be proud of his accomplishments, to be a winner – in a circle of winners, all together finding a new meaning to their lives through the staff and programs that Stepping Stone gave them.

To Chris Mueller and Andrew Covert, and all of the staff at Stepping Stone, my family and I have found the miracle that we prayed for, giving us back a beautiful son and brother. We are deeply thankful.
