    David 1

    At the beginning of his walk

    David 2

    At his destination

    now

    As he is now... his ROTC photo. David had very long hair before his walk. He cut it the week before he began his walk, and has kept it short ever since.

    "David is an extraordinary young man -- the type of future leader who will change the world one day,"

    You have every right to be very proud . . . we need more just like him.

    And thanks for the video . . . David has a remarkable Mother and Grandmother . . . it feels like a privilege to have you here.

    That looks like a US Marine Corps uniform - looks good on him.

    And to think we could all still be trapped in the borg! David would have never had the chance to do this if his mom hadn't left the organization.

    His jw grandfather couldn't understand why he would do this... but in the end was very proud of what he accomplished.

    Poppers... it is a Marine Uniform... He's in the ROTC program, and spent part of last summer at Perris Island.

    Here's Aubrey... the day before her horrific accident.. at the starting point of David's walk

    Aubrey

    and now... with her kitten, Nadia

    Aubrey 2

    Drs did an amazing job. We could have lost her...came pretty close. Every bone in her face was broken.. Her mandible was split in 2 at her chin. There was a blood clot close to her brain.... gives me chills just thinking about it...
