Jonathan Edwards

Jonathon to me is an incredible man, his story, his adoration, his love and generosity, are the reasons I am nominating him today. I have known Jonathon as my mums boyfriend for just under a year. Jonathon, my mother and I, moved into a new home on 01/10/2010.. On 03/10/2010 My mum suffered from a severe brain haemorrhage, In the space of two days, our happy family was falling apart. Defying odds, my mum is with us,He visits her every single day, without him my mums life would be so different. With his support and motivation, mum is learning to speak and walk again. He provides support for other patients too, a conversation and a joke. Enouragement and praise. When the time comes for mum to return home, Jonathon will be here to care for her. Not one day has passed where his heart has not been filled with hope and Encouragement. His support and contact with other people who have experienced similar, the strength to keep heads held up high. Not one day has passed where he has not smiled about something, and mum smiles more often than not. He is the man who could have walked away, but has stayed and helped my mum work against the odds, and defy doctors expectations. Because of this man, My family is complete, stronger than ever, and one day he will become my stepdad, with the drive that my mum will walk down the aisle. This may not sound like much, but this is everything. and for this man i am grateful.
