Akers’ home a tourist hot spot
I just spent the afternoon with the Akers. They are doing great since their return to their new home. Ginger Akers said she is pain free now that she doesn’t have to lift the girls all day. And, because she is pain free, she is sleeping at night. What a blessing!
She told me they want to thank so many people, but a lot of the gifts were anonymous. She kept expressing to me that she wants to thank everyone and tell them how appreciative they are.
Check out my story in the Pulse Thursday about their “back to school” plans.
On a side note…I thought this was so cool. The family donated nearly three truck loads of their furniture and household goods to Serve City in Hamilton. Ginger said that was a small way for them to give back.
The kids said they enjoy waving to all those that are still driving by the home. Those peeking in the windows aren’t quite as well received, but the family said they look forward to showing off the home after the show airs in November. The date has yet to be announced. Hundreds of hours of video was taken, so even the Akers have no idea what the final results will be like. Stay tuned!
