Story Summary
Scott Montgomery is the kind of man who wakes up every morning and counts his blessings.
Some days those reflections of grace and gratitude are more common than others. Because Montgomery, a Hartsburg resident who loves being a dad and family man, who loves fishing and being outdoors, and who loves his church community, has lived through a lot.
By the age of 5, he survived an accidental gunshot wound to his face and was revived twice in the operating room. In 2009, at 33, he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, a neurological condition with no cure. Then, in 2019, bumps on his legs that Montgomery thought were bug bites cascaded into swollen and painful joints, visits to Quick Care, then Urgent Care, then a dermatologist, and finally to MU Health Care’s emergency room.
