Not everybody who ends up being inspirational or great in the eyes of others has lived their entire life as a boy scout. Literature (including the Bible) is is filled with great stories of redemption. Shane Hmeil's journey back from near death and the way he has lived his life and continues to fight back from the terrible injuries he suffered as a result of his crash, certainly qualifies for that. His battle back from drug addiction probably set the stage for that battle. He's now driving a car and moving into his own place. How many of us that were there that night at Terre Haute thought that would ever be possible? How many even thought he would make it through the night?
