Wow what an awesome video! What a wonderful wife you are. I love his response. You have a beautiful family, your sons are awesome little guys. Merry Christmas and our prayers to you and your husband and your families for great medical results. Great color choice on the Corvette and wheels BTW.

Look forward to see you both posting on the corvette Forum and congrats on the new Corvette!

And, if I had to say anything else (which I do ), maybe about as inspiring as "wife12's" story is, are the many posts of concern, caring and well-wishing. Sometimes, one inspiration can cause others to think about both themselves, and others' lives. Kudos to all of you. end of pulpit

my friend. This story is about so much more than the gift itself. It has renewed my faith that people do truly care for the well being of others. Thank you for that "Wife12", and thank you to all my friends at this wonderful forum.

So how was the first drive? I think we live relatively close, so hopefully, the weather cooperated.

wife12 - Just watched the video. Amazing thing you did for your husband - glad the surprise worked out so well. Best of luck to your husband with the car and hope he gets good news concerning his health. What a wonderful family you have.

Just learned about this story over on the C6 forum. All I can say is what a beautiful story! I read all the posts and then had my wife come in and watch the video with me. We are both in tears (happy tears).

Best wishes wife 12 to you and your family!
