From Alaska to Cripple Creek, With God by My Side, is an inspirational story about the journey of an incredible, amazing young man, starting with how he grew up as a wild child in the middle of nowhere Alaska, and ending with life still thriving as a quadriplegic at Cripple Creek. It is a story about God, strong family love, and living life to the fullest, even as a quadriplegic, all while being thankful in return. Robby grew up in a really small town in the interior of Alaska, where he was blessed to experience many great Alaskan outdoor adventures, and had the lifestyle of hunting moose, caribou, and bears regularly, during the 21 years he lived there, and called the state home. When he was 24 years old, he broke his neck in an ATV accident, leaving him paralyzed from the shoulders down. He was rushed into surgery shortly after the accident, and sometime during that surgery, he had an out of body near-death experience, leaving no doubt in his mind, that life most certainly does go on after death here on earth, and reassuring him that the love of God is far more glorious than any of us can ever imagine. Robby shares the near-death experience he had at the Gates of Heaven in very vivid detail, and reminisces about how truly remarkable and glorious it was to be in God's presence. Alaska is known as The Last Frontier, and has more untouched land than any other state in America, with all different sorts of unique wildlife crawling all over it, including big game animals, such as grizzly bear, polar bear, Kodiak bear, brown bear, black bear, moose, bison, and caribou. Alaska is 1/5 the size of the lower 48 states, sitting bigger than Texas, California, and Montana, all combined. The state is made up of a beautiful landscape, and has some of the most spectacular views of mountain scenery in the world, stretching on and on in some places, as far as the eye can see. From Alaska to Cripple Creek, With God by My Side, is a book full of many action-packed stories about all of the great Alaskan outdoor adventures Robby was blessed to go on with family and friends while he lived there, and also has many facts about the great state listed as well. The book also includes many adventures Robby has been on since becoming a quadriplegic, and it is amazing to hear his inspirational and motivational outlook on life as he shares the daily challenges of what it is like to live life as a quadriplegic. It has been nearly 10 years since the accident, and even though he cannot move anymore, he still believes that God has truly blessed him, with an amazing and wonderful life. In the story, Robby shares the relationship he has had with God over the years, and tries to find different ways to explain how God's love has helped him get through even some of the hardest times in life.
