 What Do You Stand For?
http://www.muddyboots.net/semperfi/MyTribute/MyTribute.htmlIt's Memorial Day Weekend,  and it's more than the launch of Summer vacation and the school year ending. Monday is a day celebrated all across America that honors those men and women that stood up for what they believed in and ultimately lost their lives while serving in the U.S. Military, so that we could experience the freedoms we have today. As you celebrate by the pool with a barbecue, or visit a local parade or maybe even visit the grave site of a loved one who served, how will you memorialize the lives of those that gave the ultimate sacrifice?  Think about this for a moment... "what are you gonna do" to make sure that your life makes a difference to others? You may never have a holiday named after you, yet, it's a great day to reflect on the past and look towards the future and commit to making a difference for someone else. What will your legacy be? How will you be remembered?

Dustin will be busy this Sunday- making sure he stands up for what he believes in, and that is making a difference for people with spinal cord injuries, by helping raise awareness for cutting edge medical technology that allows him to once again stand up, something the doctors though impossible. It's Stand Up Sunday and Memorial Day Weekend- "What are you gonna do now?" 

Dustin was recently shared his success of being able to once again stand up, at the Las Vegas Salt Conference, and he will be back in Las Vegas delivering his motivational speech on July 30th, at the Unstuck2016 2.0 Happiness Conference where he will share his inspiring story of overcoming and his focus on helping realize there is hope and medical breakthroughs being made for those in wheelchairs with spinal cord injuries. He hopes, you will realize there is hope within each and everyone of us when we look deep.  Another way Dustin is helping raise awareness is through the clothing line that was recently launched; proceeds benefit those with spinal cord injuries.

 Dustin Shillcox’s life drastically changed when he was in a car accident August 2010 and sustained major spinal cord damage, a broken upper arm, collapsed lungs, broken ribs, cracked sternum & mild brain injury. Dustin’s complete T-5 spinal cord injury (SCI) left him with no feeling below his mid-chest, causing paralysis from the chest down.

Now paralyzed, and living his life in a wheel chair, Dustin was told he would never again be able to move below his waist again, but after participating in a cutting edge SCI research project, at the University of Kentucky in Louisville, he is now able to move his legs and stand once again. Dustin is living his life to the fullest, sharing his story, journey of overcoming obstacles, and faith while raising funds for spinal cord research. Through his motivational speaking and the Dustin Shillcox Foundation, he is helping to improve the lives of people in wheelchairs.

Dustin delivers an inspiring message about never giving up, and the power of a positive attitude in his speech "What Are You Gonna Do Now?" Inquire about Dustin's availability to speak at your next business meeting, conference, charity event, school, church or graduation event. If you are looking to inspire your crowd to overcome personal challenges, and motivate into action, Dustin needs to be your next call! 307.870.6764
