Some thoughts and prayers needed

I'm not usually one to post threads like this, but this one really hit close to home. Travis Mills is the cousin of my friend and neighbor, and was severely injured in Afghanistan last week after stepping on an IED. The end result was the loss of both arms and both legs. Support for him has really gone viral, so you may already be aware of it, but I ask that you wish him and his family well just the same.

More about Travis and his story here:

Holy smokes...

Mills is only the fourth quadruple amputee in military history to survive his injuries, according to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation and the Gary Sinise Foundation, which have reached out to Mills' family to offer support.

Yeah, I saw that as well. One of the comments left for Travis (after one of the myriad of articles or on the FB page) was from the second quadruple amputee.
