I posted this video on my facebook page, and found myself watching it again and again.   The strength of this man amazes me, and I only hope that when faced with adversity, I am half as strong.

Yes, WONDERFULLY inspiring

Thank you for also coming here, Aimee, and posting this -- I was very inspired by it when I saw it on your facebook.  I believe it shows concepts such as independence, interdependence, teamwork, determinism, and victory, as well as the more obvious love of family.  Suffice it to say that at times when it is feeling like I'm running around a big track with a torn hamstring, seeing someone from the Grate Group posting on Lumigrate is VERY similar to what this video is about. 

I hope THAT encourages people who are deciding whether to click on the link or not to do so if they have just a couple of minutes and want to be heartfully inspired.  ~~ Mardy
