Great but sad story I Found.
« on: March 09, 2011, 12:38:38 AM »
This boy just turned 10 years old, and has only been given weeks to live due to a certain kind of cancer he has had for years. Well his dream was to be in the army, so check this out.

As for Brennan, it took a while for his new honor to sink in. The next day, he asked his mother, "Am I really in the Army?"

"You most certainly are," she answered. "They don't swear in just anyone."

"That's awesome," said Brennan.

 :lol Congrats to Brennan! Let's hope he proves those doctors wrong  :cheers:

Wait, he's not dead yet?  I thought this was about a late ten year old.  My mistake!  :eek:

Rather comprehend before I type, never judge an internet story by its headline.  The poor bugger, I wonder how long he'll last.
