Determination for Finn

Last night, after a very long day and a roller coaster of emotions, we received a gift from my uncle. Last night's tears were that of gratitude, comfort, and hope. Our boy is steadily improving.He's still got a team of supporters all around the world hoping and praying for him.

This particular gesture of support hit home -- it came from the place that I called home for many years. It came from the family that has stood by me (and my family) as we traipse around the world at the direction of the Marine Corps. It came from my high school -- the school that I attended from kindergarten until graduation. It came from strangers, people who don't know me personally, but they know my extended family, and they know of our story.

I hope you enjoy this video of the Saydel High School cheerleaders performing "Determination for Finn."
