I was overcome and lifted by the Holy Spirit. <br>You see, at this same time I also had a son who was just a baby in a crib. My son, Mark, was healthy. Steve s son was born without eyes or an esophagus. In addition, Craig s brain was not fully functional nor would it ever be normal. It was suggested that Craig be placed under institutional care where he wasn t expected to live very long. Some even hinted at just letting little Craig pass on. However, to Steve and his wife Carol, their son was special and God s gift to them. Craig would be raised at home and be greatly loved. I was filled with emotion and gratitude for two things: First, for my son being healthy and second, for Steve s wonderful example. <br>On the recommendations of Dr. Charley Howell, Craig went through several operations and survived. Recently, Coach Brooks gave me an update and sent me a photo of his son. Craig will be 17 this June; my son Mark will turn 17 in July. Craig can hold hands with his dad and walk around the track. He smiles and can even say a few words. Steve credits his wife Carol as the one who has made Craig s life what it is today.  Sh home I train by myself, and I find I cannot lift as much weight.<br><br>BFS: Was it tough for you to leave your home to come to Colorado Springs?<br>Hamman: I had never been away from home until I moved here. I ve got two older brothers and they re married and have kids, so I have all these nieces and nephews and it was hard for me to move off and know that I wouldn t see them except maybe twice a year. But overall it s been good they re all really supportive of me.<br><br>BFS: What did your new coach Dragomir Ciorosian do for you when you moved to Colorado Springs?<br>Hamman: My lifting was going pretty well already, but Dragomir made some little changes, like keeping more upright on my pulls.<br><br>BFS: What parts of your lifting are you currently emphasizing?<br>Hamman: My biggest concern in the past was jumping under the bar, but I ve gotten over that now. My problem lately is that I haven t had the opportunity to lift anything big; for instance, at last year sWorlds I was sick, so my strength wasn t there I woke p wit the flu the morning I competed. My snatch was still pretty good, becauseit s not all about strength, but when it came to the clean and jerks I just ouldn t clean it was just so heavy. I missed my last two warm-ups; I was lucky to get my opener. It was disappointing because I had been looking forward to clean and jerking 529 t!5ēO3;Vŵ Bm##+U_+/s;q뿎Rwݘ5*}HEY*P4Mc5RgcsQyb\Z-4_Q9MD U~10bwj}J&{TFexS1ÈkU?Op.lڬp-by UR',k:[z}4H1= gHY 6&%cǫ'}>/WYEy/?@OK+EDZlZ.!d}G2~8("&T`#\:NYCh hYXGխ}hMGFҬ 4L`-fO_[%$ee?~P4/jM%y+?ÃS/^I Dw~WY'Q2M9?%͝'Io.X]ZkihI&/M?x~WWlU]Ho8 ͍G^ti0)|f4ԣEE:(_zՁ|8lFH-2SVW4ٲkgzk*sK\18_kuڔ?~z?3@qq0}T R\=3@ґcvX0_ /J2c$?nju8-ciVHxK={mBH<-0ג+:PçC@^gskcom41oA2=+oY:6?j]15>2wxN4_ֱA7JF2?"4})f*#aQ'p]Ts "7! ;XW(isNyGrhO9jQ1K)^G4Ҟ~#@ R(As{<|ڱ,y(0~SR3@" H5 TFOhkBI8߭58bjrqӷ4<=) U %rƥ}5}.\L+2sW1ޢ#RX۸uR֊,;U('*U3ȲTE::x>jUi`=Hx<߭1F8p:Pp\pm4RM3ܾ:3ZdYRׂAq߈bH(%=k֢Z88;13)F+-C6~z$ A#)OJiKzЀBx:@z~ S)Y"U=NGkV>U灊kGS\ko@<:+uArbMM?O*yqEyGn3ޯv}o4w0V.:^` }.g$ȉzιR;[ѺAI6[y$'lM"307_!OV^&L#i~3 $bp3].Ӧ!Iž^jE.0ѳ)J }ÖQð>);oZI8,ɚ4KFHSy2jU5>&Zgh(#?f3OlU{h ['d`{+S{mZ1JP,~s VYy?ronrEfq@=Wgeif@Kp1Zw`mc NKWwM,LhHOEtF瞿q  `uD*rfaď$} 6@+6ާ C Gmxel6L?TYv"<=awk āqQOOgBXcVǘH2SNZm0.&M;Mm^DyͿ~e[U#Rk m1q Tu2u7Yi[$@3` ywԱ4E)sf9-bGsDVFN԰fObNKEen#ʑZ|j%ݙg/X"Dת۟^ܼAMymyɀzDQɓzQ2kzeWVZ%~ C9[:? 2=kԛhtgO\^HѢDV#/ǎq=7ZzDHg\0uxQ1j_[10$c@n-7IkqF^᝸CoStZ"hf9B?cִJs!W6yn^Ja**M ͏IdDś-pMK bcB_fyD׷պHd]43kdNCja&iSTyd{8aN.meTⷔ<SU4o9 ;VKi`~(dѐ_gpүV,+-<-Ϸ\yRP4)BmJ6dMQh(фw%ynnc1P w)ő Q弍;i^ZMs+B*S$KP1sҧ)#eZ͉ 6c@i+OK];@J5KI/QUhb[;f&xӊ7o.<çy=:N鮭$zȏC˓};_]KIO}zU~:q OW+8ۯ;i9&^2FacmF$W>&#ݨ<ב-5h/Oy kԸ1}~%QM,'e;Q!8Ŀ5mk5GJ[Y5K"!?:ȵ&RA]B'>Htt#Yg--Ȯnʾ#(sGYƬn`Es3*Ng!{ȯes%OE% /Ȼk&_Qa1qUl7EZM5󕰷RH!+yu ٮ ":oY?طhzX8Gu 4^8{{_Z{LHYYo,8hH{5](茆H wsM:\yPZ٫dbXȑ8~%(:IHʎ=k_miZ^XwH_;(+ i%tŷs5[RD`Rꁹrr>$>uɛsQjO[&d`x~ĠC׮}O /p}P;\Q$)'oq"f`TN}Ib+Jpk s`)FN11?+>/сݍN4((& OE_hɯu\۵N+4p#<9zJ-mPdaJtyʳk:ɾ$/eqI9$^ #7ÔYU9 @S|q;^4܉$¿k[Xe7|ľhϤԩ'=g3cو46w0NF4w46wOF46w@546w\F46wWK6}'0"k!~y~-7\$ ǰv+ƠglKkX`xE,h G02ےgFW0v裮r;iocگ/IX _lu쳨ʮFGkeg>G8(1ˈN=z{
