Poor kid. He's tough to go through something like that and come out the other side with that attitude

What a story! Makes complaining about dusty tracks and slow programs seem petty...

This kid seems similar to Shane Hmiel, in that he came out of a terrible ordeal and will use what he gained in surviving such a horrible thing, to help others make it through their situations, like he did.

Very inspiring. Thanks for sharing Kenn.

When you think you are having a bad day, I would recommend you visit a children's hospital. I am sure your perspective will change.

Quinton Anderson is a remarkable, determined and inspiring young man; he certainly is a reminder of how anyones life can change in a split second. His positive attitude is indeed up lifting. Makes me wonder how many more uplifing people I will encounter next month in Joplin. Quinton's words made me think again of the thousands of Joplin residents whose lives changed when this storm swept thru their town.

Quinton's words also reminded me as someone said earlier in this thread how petty it is to be concerned over dusty race tracks, low car counts, the show running late, etc, etc, etc.
