In 1985 My grandparents adopted this one month old baby named Kenny knowing he was born with a disabilty, but that didn't matter in fact I think that's why their heart was so heavy. Since then that baby has grown into a God fearing and full of life young man.
This post is dedicated to him. For the next few paragrapghs I'm going to tell you all about my uncle,
Kenny Ray Kronenberger!
If you know Kenny the things I say in the post are going to make you laugh, make you cry or make you go "Huh that is so true", but most importantly I hope it shows you just how awesome of man he really is!
Kenny was diagnosed with Leukodystrophy,
which is a deterioration of the brain.
I don't want to get into that though because that is not what makes Kenny so special.
What makes him so special is that in spite of this disorder he is the most cheerfull, happy and go lucky guy I am blessed to know.
Seriously ask him how he is doing on any given day the anwer will always be "Awesome".
He could be bed ridden with the flu....he will still say he is awesome!!!
He also is always praising the Lord.
Oh Uncle Jessie (Full House) kissed a girl...."Praise the Lord"
Oh dinner is ready.... ""Praise the Lord"
but my favorite is when he is on the front pew of every service, waving his arms around, shouting praise the Lord. It convicts me. A man in a wheel chair, who is only able to use is arms and voice is out praising me, but even more so he has so much more faith then I do.
I'm sitting here...sitting... with two able legs an able mind, blessed beyond what I deserve and I don't have enough faith to praise Him in the good times and the bad.
Kenny you are inspiring.
You may never be black.
There may never be enough Elvis songs to please you.
You may never be Batman, but...
One day you'll be praising God with your legs...Jumping, dancing , running through the Pearly Gates down the Streets of Gold with your new body and new mind right at the feet of Jesus.
Oh what a day!!
Love you Kenny
Stay Strong!!
Love, Ally
