I wasn't sure where to put this, so i thought right here would be a good idea.
This guy named Taylor Morris was working on mines, one went off and he lost all his limbs. He gave orders to his fellow soldiers to not save him for fear that they'd set another one off.
Somebody put a picture and story of this on http://thechive.com. These guys raised... an ungodly amount of money for this guy. They got him a cozy cabin, they're helping him with prostetic limbs, and now he's met Obama, and is due to be at the white house on July 4th.
I also spoke to Taylor about his rehab, which continues to defy expectations. Taylor has already been fitted for his right and left hand prosthetic, as well as one of his prosthetic legs. It will not be long until Taylor has all four prosthetic limbs.
Taylor Morris has come a long way. Two months ago tomorrow, Taylor lay dying in a crater, all of his limbs blown off, giving orders to his fellow soldiers not to come save him because it was too dangerous. On July 4th he will join the President on the White House lawn to ring in our Independence Day. Then someday sooner than anybody anticipated, the resilient sailor will return home to Iowa, and walk into a cabin the Chivers built....

Amazing story, I just with Obama hadn't been a part of it.
