    Your post and Jenna's are about the same story..

    You know, I can honestly say that I don't know if I have enough courage to do that. My hat off to this guy - amazing! And its nice to see the people who love him still love him no matter what.

    When I first heard of this several months ago I felt like crying. I still can't force myself to read all the gruesome details about the surgery. Lots of people with a tenth of the trouble he has had are willing to just sit around feeling sorry for themselves and give up on life. I admire him so much.
    May you always find new roads to travel, new horizons to explore, and new dreams to call your own.

    A while back our local paper did a story about this guy. There was an extensive interview with his wife. SHE is his armor in my opinion. The support and love she gave him is not easy to find in such hard times. I just hope I find one like her.

    Must be getting soft in my old age. I thing (dare I say it) I'm turning into a romantic. (That's for you, Stump) BWAHAHAHAHA:D

    The first time I read the story back in July it made me cry. I'm glad to see that he is able to work. I've also never heard of fourth degree burns. God wasn't ready for him yet.

    Jason is a heck of a man.

    Fourth degree burns are down to the muscle and bone. :(
