Id like to introduce you to an amazing young man who overcame apparently insurmountable odds to live with courage and character. He was so determined to survive, that he faced overwhelming challenges and won, emerging from his experiences with a strength and confidence that he hadnt realized he possessed. One chilly October night, he descended the stairs to the wine cellar of the restaurant in which he worked. Suddenly, he felt an odd pop in his back.
