WOW it really puts it in to perspective .He certainly will not be in the wheel chair as he stands before his heavenly Father.You can look at the dad and say what a blessing he is but the son looks like he is such a inspiration as well WOW .GOD IS GOOD

Truely; taking what most of us would consider a tragic situation and turning it into a true Blessing

No problem Scott, after reading that e-mail it made me realize just how much I don't do. Eye opening to see the dedication to ones child, amazing. I think I've watched the video about half a dozen times. If you have kids it seems to have more meaning, not that it doesn't touch everyone.

What an awesome story! I hope everyone on the board takes a look at that site. Thank you for sharing, Justin.
Having nearly lost my father a few weeks ago to a heart attack, I have really tried to stop and put my life into perspective. The bond between a father and his child is something so precious and invaluable, no matter how old the father and how old his child. It is so imperative that we don't take anything for granted with the ones we love. I really am somewhat "speechless" after watching that video. It just makes you sit back and think about your life and what is most important to you.

The man in the story Mr. Hoyt is competing in his last Ironman triathalon today along with his son. God willing they will finish before the cut off time. They said he hasn't competed in like 6 or 7 years, so hopefully they can end on a good note.
I wish them good luck, not that they need it. Since the man upstairs is on their side, I believe.
