Colleen remembers her initial thoughts about when she first got word he was shot, then the days at University Hospital not knowing whether he would make it. "I couldn't deal with what had happened if I thought about the big picture," she said. "So I broke it down into pieces. I would get through one minute and then move on to the next." Walking for Stacy is still quite difficult. He wears leg braces, but can move himself unaided by his physical therapist for a while before tiring and slumping back into his wheelchair.
