My health is definitely not the greatest (cancer and a "botched"back fusion last year) I got sepsis and my son's almost lost their mother....Me. Then I look at this young man and he brings me so much happiness. This story of his courage will always stay with me. I'm giving you an"atta boy"pat on your back. Your mother must be so proud.✌️❤️🏀

@janjerge1484 2 ай бұрын

@@Fred-mp1vf- Your comment may or may not be appropriate. There were A LOT of stories in this clip!! The person you were responding to so brashly didn't specify which story she was referencing. If it was the one early in this tape about the homeless boy who came back again & again & AGAIN to sleep in the car, & who resisted & had to learn every lesson the hard way (bless his heart!!), then yes, maybe you're on target. BUT, if you watched the ENTIRE video, you would have seen there also was a story about a woman/widowed mom who FINALLY went back to school, earning her degree & keeping her long-overdue promise to her husband, killed in Iraq. I chose to assume that was the story evevaldez was aligning herself with. In which case, YOU missed the point, & your response is WAAY off base!!
