strength of spirit

Another touching testimony to the strength of the human spirit. Ever heard of Dick and Rick Hoyt? Well, they’re not you’re average father-and-son tandem. When Rick was born, he got strangled by his own umbilical cord. Although he didn’t die, he was permanently brain damaged. His doctors said that he would be a vegetable all his life. But his parents would not give up.

Read the rest of their amazing story here (an article from Sports Illustrated). There is a video at the bottom of the page. Or, you can visit the Team Hoyt official website.

Now, what was it again that was so impossible to do?
