    Default Worth a look...

    Im not sure if this is the right place to post this...

    This is a video of my buddy i graduated from high school with.
    He is in the marine corps and was serving in iraq.
    On patrol one day he stepped on an IED and lost both of his legs, and his left arm from the forearm down.
    He said if it had to happen to anyone, he'd want it to happen to him.
    YET he still has such optimism and a great look on his situation.

    I thought i would share this with everyone, so when you start bitching about traffic,
    or the rain etc you can think about how bad things really could be.

They still laugh about it..If you don't already know, you can Keep up with his progress at Caringbridge.com keyword toddlove.. HE is doing really great and really is a hero and has a huge heart!
