MEET FATHER BERNARD. 🙏
Father Bernard is a Catholic priest at St Mary’s Cathedral in Hobart, but to me and my family, he’s much more than that.
He’s the man who married Tirah and me, baptised our beautiful daughter Belle and someone who’s played a very special role in our lives.
So when the opportunity came to help him rebuild his strength, mobility and physical capacity at 63, it was an absolute no-brainer.
When Father Bernard first came to me, he could barely raise his arms above shoulder height.
Alongside his physiotherapy, we’ve focused on rebuilding his shoulder strength, mobility and overall physical capacity, supported by a simple 15–20 minute daily home program.
And the progress has been absolutely sensational. 💪
One thing I particularly loved in this video was Father Bernard speaking about the importance of physical, mental and spiritual fitness.
Three pillars that contribute to living a healthy, fulfilling life.
To make things even more special, Father Bernard was up in Smithton over the weekend and stopped through Burnie on his way home to bless our family home. A gesture that meant a great deal to us 🏠
From marrying us, to baptising our daughter, to blessing our home and now having the privilege of helping him rebuild his health and strength.
A pretty special full-circle moment.
Father Bernard, it’s been an absolute pleasure, mate.
And how good is that Rocky-inspired tracksuit! 🥊😂
