Whatever happened to good old fashioned common sense and courtesy for your fellow man?

I mean, how far is too far now a days?

Re: Teen Loses Feet In Six Flags Accident

I would not vote to ban him as if it were a vote thing. Times like this bring up quotes from my favorite guy to quote.

"Father forgive them for they know not what they do." - Jesus

Back to the girl.

She has an amazing and difficult time ahead. The next year will be incredible pain and work in healing. Her mind will at some point greave for her lost body parts. I hope and pray she has a great support group around her. I leaned on the Lord and my family.

My first reaction was that I would be back to "normal" in no time flat. It's been 10 years and my normal is wonderful in it's own way but NOTHING like normal was.

I put on a poker face for my family that was positive and ok. I guess I'm so stupid I actually believed it and it got me through.

Hang in there lil Sister!!!!
peace

When you went through this did they have people that had been through this there to help prepare you for what your recovery would be like? I know its something you can never fully recover from but it seems having someone who had been through it would be a big help. Hey, those ribs looked great. I wsih I could get mine to come out looking and tasting like yours.

Re: Teen Loses Feet In Six Flags Accident

The first person who I felt knew where I was coming from was the guy that made my first leg. He had all his stuff but had a look of compassion that made me feel he knew what I was going through.

I didn't have another Amputee to help me but I think I have motivated a few and like I posted want to help them/me at Walter Reed withe BBQ thing.

Re: Teen Loses Feet In Six Flags Accident

SBF I publicly and sincerely apologize, the situation regarding your leg slipped my mind, which is especially dumb because you mentioned it back in like the second post in this thread.

If I can explain, sometimes I feel like the Warpath gets a little dull in the offseason, and cracking some jokes can be a way to kick things up a notch.

But at the same time, the last thing I wanted to do was say something insensitive that would actually hurt you, or anyone, at a personal level. So lesson learned on my part - as has been said by others in this very thread - you never know who's reading.

The jokes were meant to be insensitive and edgy, because I dig that kind of humor. But I didn't fully consider my audience, you in particular. So to you, I apologize.

PS And yes, what JoeRedskin said was correct about me. I'm not actually an insensitive ass like that, and I think most of you know that. I'll bust it out on occasion to spice things up. But here, I clearly crossed into some personal territory.
