Hi Matt, Ilike this work of yours. I came out of the army in the 70's disabled with an injured spine. Before the surgeon operated he told us that I could end up in a wheelchasir for life. I thought about our future and how we would cope , but it turned out we had no worries. You invoked memories my man. God Bless. D.
