Sitting in a chair receiving IV drugs, as a beautiful child with her familyin attendance was undergoing IV chemotherapy next to me, provided me with a similar experience.
Thank you for the lessons provided by people in dire circumstances who without complaining keep the good fight going forward. They are truly an inspiration.
Your selection of men was excellent. Adding your own story made it so personal. I pray the coming year brings all of us in America happiness and good health.
Thank you for this inspiring and well written story. Suffering is never enjoyable, but knowing that your suffering and overcoming can inspire others not to give up or wallow in their own suffering or sadness is immensely powerful. (powerful not in an egotistical way, but powerful in a humbling and quiet way that is full of strength of character) The ripples of encouragement that go out from these three men's stories (and yours) are now even farther reaching through your words. God bless you and your family this season and always.
Thanks; a good entry, this .

Great stories of everyday heroes at a perfect time to remind us of the gifts we often take for granted.
Truly inspirational and humbling.
Only God can make such masterpieces.

Thanks my friend. I thought they were, too, even if 2 of the 3 were virtually unknown.
