It's the worst day of any parent's life when they get that visit from a guy in uniform talking about their kid. For our family it has been life-altering. But more than that you find out that the bravery with which these kids faced the enemy in Iraq is really doubled or more by the bravery that they show while recovering from their injuries. Our family is one of the lucky ones. Our son is alive. |
The attitude of the wounded kids I saw in the hospital was astonishing. There are no better people. |
This past Christmas I was able to find a one-handed controller for video games. You have thought I had given Chris the world. |
