Nephew doing just fine...
« on: August 07, 2009, 12:52:40 AM »
Hi All I just wanted to share this with you all as I am so proud of him.  If you remember a few months back I told you  about him being in a skiing accident and we almost lost him.  Well his leg was lost but not his spirit.  He is an inspiration to the whole family and I hope by sharing this it brings hope to others out there.

Fishing Sandy Hook and anywhere I can get on a boat.




My biggest fear is when I die my wife sells all of my fishing tackle for what she thinks I paid for it!

Thanks guys, it is amazing how they change as they grow up and take part in the real world.  He was always the little geek till he hit college and away from mama's apron strings.  Now with this glitch in his road his true colors are shining through.  I could not be more proud of him, as we all are.

That is awesome, Paul!  It is great to see how he turned a horrible tragedy into something extremely positive.  It is amazing how quickly he recovered and how well he walks on the prosthetic leg.  Good luck to him in school.  Really cool he is going to use his engineering abilities and do something that he will know first hand...and to think how many people he will make a positive impact on!  Sounds like a great person slt.
