What an amazing article! Tom Garber was blindsided, yet was still able to use his lemons to make lemonade. His courage is a tribute to the human spirit and a daily reminder of how precious life is.
MY TURN
Life Without Legs
When a blood clot left me paralyzed from the chest down, I thought about giving up. Then I learned to appreciate what I still had.

Thank you for a wonderful article about this everyday guy becoming an extraordinary example of how we should all appreciate our lives. This is a story that I will pass on to all I know. Simply stated, beautifully written and makes you smile as you finish it. Thank you for my early Christmas present.
