Get out the Kleenex

[Scott P]

I found a great, but sad story about the a 7 year old boy who was made an offical firefighter...and died five days later.

The original story:

A brave boy joins his heroes -- Page 1 -- Times Union - Albany NY

And the sad follow-up:

Sick boy dies as a fireman -- Page 1 -- Times Union - Albany NY

Make a Wish is my favorite charity. I'm not one to pass around sob stories, but this one was just too special.

It is hard to control ones emotions when you read a story like this.

Is there something wrong with the forum.....? I am having a little trouble reading the screen. It is a little blurry. Maybe I should go outside for a while. Give the forum a little time to adjust for some reason I cannot read the screen now.:hmmm:
