We extricated him from his car, he had a massive head injury. He just barely made it out alive. After months of hospitalization and physical therapy he was back at work. I had seen him around before the accident. Someone introduced us. He said, "thank you for saving my life. I don't remember it, but I know you did."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4026214128770026952.post-63230324136210267792009-05-19T13:50:00.000-07:002009-05-19T13:50:00.000-07:00And such is our lot in life.

It is easy to let it drive other thoughts, thoughts of home and hearth, away from the front of your mind.

I feel ya brother! You are not alone. We are all here for you.FireCap5https://www.blogger.com/profile/03212518132355928502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4026214128770026952.post-55177510646608548642009-05-18T20:47:00.000-07:002009-05-18T20:47:00.000-07:00We are the silent every day heroes.
