Today I was emailed this extremely uplifting video of Team Hoyt. I have no idea if this has been posted here yet so bear with me if it has. Team Hoyt is made up of Dick and Rick Hoyt, a father and son. When Rick was born he had the umbilical cord wrapped around his neck causing him to get cerebal palsy (sp?). The doctors told his parents to put him in an institution and that he would be nothing more than a vegetable his whole life. His parents would have nothing to do with that, they wanted him to grow up as normal as possible. They brought him swimming and pushed him around in a wheelchair to play street hockey. When they took Rick along on all of these activities is the only time he would smile as big as he does. His father began training so he could take his son along. Right now Dick is 66 and Rick is 44. They have run countless marathons and triathlons, including 25 Boston Marathons and 15 Ironman Triathlons. This whole time Dick pulls, pushes and carries Rick. Please watch this movie to see how wonderful this man is. It brought a tear to my eye.

i dont feel like clicking, but the guy came to my school once and talked to us about it. i guess thats what happens when teh boston marathon starts in your town
 
yeah it makes complete sense, u feel sad for this father and son, but it makes u feel good that this father is trying his hardest to succeed in helping his son out, and it also makes u kinda feel good a little bit
 
wow that is amazing. like the dad is doing everything he can to make his son happy, that is AWESOME!!! i don't know how many people could do that
