    This made my day

    I have been transporting this kid to school in a wheelchair for months. He got fitted for leg braces yesterday. Today he walked out his house with the biggest damn smile on his face. And at school the staff started clapping when he stepped out of the van instead of riding in a wheelchair. It was so cool to watch.

    Always a good thing when someone is able to step away from a wheelchair.

    When we salute the boy we also salute those who helped him succeed.

    You did well, TG. May this be one of many roadblocks your friend overcomes.

    Hat's off the the boy. Hopefully we'll hear some good things going on later in his life.

    Today is my last trip with him. I pick him up from school in 15 min. I'm sure he will do fine.
