And I'd give up forever to touch you 'Cause I know that you feel me somehow You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be And I don't want to go home right now And all I can taste is this moment And all I can breathe is your life 'Cause sooner or later it's over I just don't want to miss you tonight And I don't want the world to see me 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming Or the moment of truth in your lies When everything feels like the movies Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive And I don't want the world to see me 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am And I don't want the world to see me 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am And I don't want the world to see me 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am Garrett~All of us at home cannot wait to see your shining face and your beautiful eyes at HOME! You have been such a complete and total inspiration for me, and one day I will show you how you have changed me, and thank you for all you have done for me. I love you Garrett.

Garrett, I hear you will be going home soon! I can't tell you how excited I am for you and your family. This journey you have taken has touched so many people. When I heard about your accident and read about you and your family, I just had faith that you were going to recover and do great things. All of your hard work, prayers, and faith has paid off and YOU WILL DO MORE GREAT THINGS! Thank you for letting me be a part of this extremely personal and emotional time. One thing I have learned by reading your struggles, is keep the faith, keep trying, keep up the prayers. Good Luck in all that you do and with all that you will accomplish. Holly Michigan Garrett fan!

Garrett, It's nice to know that you're "okay", that you think you are "gorgeous", and that you "can't wait to get back to school". I bet you never thought you would say that! :) Isn't is funny how priorities can change? The entire community is anxiously awaiting your return. I'm sure it will feel great to sleep in your own bed again. There is nothing quite as "sweet" as coming home after a long journey. Take good care of yourself, and keep working hard. Love, Jody Yunetz

Garrett, Every time I come to this site I get so emotional from every loving message that is posted...you're such a special and wonderful miracle to all of us...but I can never put into words the feelings that I'm experiencing. After seeing you today there is no doubt in my mind that God is working in your life. Words can not express how wonderful it is to see you smile and to hear you laugh. I know that your 100% with us in everyway. This evening when I visited I didn't expect you to remember me at all. To my wonderful surprise you did! Throughout the night you kept amazing me too; like when you were telling me that I should go to Penn State...it made me laugh because we used to joke about that all the time. Your charm is still there too...through everything you've been thru you still managed to look past it and look at me and tell me that I'm beautiful...it's soo flattering in itself but to hear it from you just makes it that much better. I love ya babe and I know your gonna be back with us in no time! Keep that amazing faith that you show in everyway! Lots of love and prayer! God Bless! Love ~Tabby Holnaider

Garrett~ From the moment at Pine Springs that Tres told me about the accident~I had faith that through prayer and your determination that there would be a day that you would be coming home~that day is almost upon you! Know that you were loved and cared about by many before the accident, during your recovery, and will be in the future! Stay strong! ~Crista

Garrett, I am so excited to hear that you are coming home this week! All your hard work so far is paying off, just keep up the work and you will be back to school before you know it. I know everyone wants to see you at Senior night, it will be such a special moment for everyone. Take care and I will come to see you when I come home. Love, Alicia Heckel

Garrett- Hey Hey!!! I haven't been able to check this site for almost a week(computer problems...yuck!), so I was so excited to hear that you are getting ready to go home! You have improved so much over the past months, and definitely since I saw you last a few weeks ago. I really do admire your amazing amount of strength and determination. It seems so hard to believe it's been almost three months. I still am missing you and can't wait until I can come and visit! College is really keeping me busy, but what else is new?! I have seven weeks off for winter break though(sweetness!), so I'll definitely get to visit ya then. It's been going great here though- you will be surprised at how I'm finally coming out of my shell! Good luck in whatever challenges this week may bring and you are still in my thoughts and prayers. Much luv, ~Ashley Young P.S. Whenever we get to have a face-to-face conversation, boy you have got some 'splainin to do!!!

Garrett I cant wait to see you! Congrats on coming home! I hope to see u at Senior nite! Megan P.

Hey Garrett!!! I'm so HAPPY and THRILLED to hear and see your improvements. I hope you get better soon!! School & football isn't the same without you. Sarnesse wears "60" on his arm almost every game. I wanted to tell you earlier, but I didn't have time. Well Garrett I g2g! WE MISS YOU SOO MUCH!! Love you!!~me

Garrett SO glad to here your coming home. I know what that means and I know is will be a huge sigh of relief for all of you even though it will be a little scary at first. You have to remember you had a nurse at your beck and call and it will probably take your mom a few minutes to answer your requests...lol..so be patient...Good luck to all of you. Love Carlene

Dottie, Larry, So great to hear of Garrett's progress. Let me know when Garrett gets home I would be happy to come sit with him. Lots of Love and Prayers to you all. Hope

Knowing that Garrett will soon be back home where he belong is wonderful news. His homecoming is a sign that he is truly on the road to recovery. Garrett- I know you will enjoy coming home and being with you friends and family. Keep up the good work and keep smiling. Jessica Blice

Garrett- I just sit here and all I can do is think about you...and all the times and I only wish there were more...and lets hope there will be some more soon! I read someone's message and it said that you might be at your senior night football game...oh my gosh I know you would LOVE that...Garrett I can't believe how strong you are...you are amazingly strong...Whenever I do anything...I usually think about you..like when I listen to music..so many songs remind me of you...Garrett I miss you sooo much..and I'm so mad that I haven't been down to see you lately...I can't wait to see you this weekend...to hear you talk...and be yourself...It's going to be so much fun...You've come far Garrett....I thank God everyday for letting me meet you..cuz I have learned SO much from you that it's amazing...I miss you SOOOOOO much Garrett and I can't wait to see you! love ya! Ann Graham =)
