Some of our hunting camp buddies were sitting around the camp after hunting hard all day, and getting our belly's stretched at dinner, the conversation came onto hero's no not one of those big sandwich's cram ed whit everything under the sun but the real deals, some spoke of JFK, Patton, Lincon, Firefighters on 911, the people the took the plane from the terrorists and crashed all great Hero's no Question about it. Then it was my turn, I though a minute and replied "my nephew Steven", I was thrown a few strange looks, Then I went on to say he didn`t serve in the military or cop or any Public Servant, What he did do is something that me or my brothers couldn`t do for our father, He gave a Kidney to my oldest brother his dad and saved his life. My brother had Diabetes in a bad way going to get "hooked up" every couple days and feeling generally poor all the time going on for a couple years and took a bad turn landing him in the hospital for an extended stay, wrong meds, bad communication,had alot of big bumps in his road he was placed on a donors list was there for awhile and his condition was going down something had to be done.I and my Nephew have the same blood type so we were elected took all the tests and it came down to a Kidney that was 22 years younger Steven was it. The operation went a little longer than they planed but came out well my brother is still with us and Steven is doing fine.
So when anyone ever asks me who`s your Hero? you might see a tear in the corner of my eye when I say my nephew it might be pride to know him or the gift of life he so easily gave to his dad.
Hero`s big and small we NEED them to show the rest of us how to live,God smiles on them forever.
