It’s not that your legs are blown up and you can become a hero, but in countless real and difficult days after that, you can overcome despair and frustration, handle your relationship with those around you, and handle your disability and life. relation. You can drink, you can yell at your girlfriend, you can cry bitterly in the bathroom, you can shake your hands while holding a flagpole... But you still have to be strong to get out of fear and the pain and trouble in life all the time, learn to be truly brave, learn Forgiveness and understanding, learn to take responsibility, learn to cherish, learn to meet new challenges or roles...

Jeff Berman had the qualities of a strong man from the beginning: humor. When he woke up from a coma and learned that he had lost his legs, he actually wrote "Lieutenant Dan" on the paper, and I took it. At the time I thought he would write "Let me die"-if it were me, I would not even have the courage to live, let alone face a more cruel life after being discharged from the hospital.

I also like his girlfriend, Eileen. If his mother only wants the world to see what a wonderful son she has, Eileen is the one who really loves him. She knows his pain and fear, understands his weakness and irritability. Be strong and live as normal a life as possible. I think this is true love. It was Jeff's luck to meet Eileen.
