And to thing there are people out there that look for anything for free, get those handouts "i am crippled", "i can't work", nanny state freeloaders. They need to take a lesson from this young man. He has turned his disadvantages into advantages and has focused his tallents to an area that is beautiful.

Obviously his musical talent and perseverance despite his physical set backs are remarkable but what I find even more incredible is the enormous love and dedication of the father.

This guy works all night and sleeps only 5 hours to get up and be his son's legs and eyes.... remarkable devotion and he epitomizes the word Father!

so true Lary. I know there are times I go without sleep for days on end for my kids but I could not imagine doing it day in and day out. I guess we all get a bit spoiled with having healthy babies that when we get challenged it becomes an eye opener.

I like the caption too "Obama couldn't make time for me but Gov. Palin
and her husband Todd and Hank Williams, Jr. did!" that's because they love America and all Americans and are true class acts.

I know. I emailed Patrick thanking him for his talents and ambitions. Also asked him to thank his father for me! Will post the reply if I get one.

Well I got a reply fro Patrick.



Thank you for your kind words and taking the time to write. Being able to touch so many by doing the things I love is more than I could ever ask for. My family and I are truly blessed.

God bless -
