    usmc1990pa: You are a complete disgrace to the human race. This kid will have to endure something you hopefully never will. Try to have some compassion for him. He did not ask to be forced into blindnesss, and he certainly did not ask to be subjected to the brand of severe social ignorance and bigotry evidenced by your comment.

    You know, in a way, you’re sort of blind too. Not physically, but rather blind to compassion and tolerance.

    Grow the hell up.

    Wow. So beautiful- I’ve never seen a better attitude in anyone. So soon after his surgery, when most of us would be just feeling sorry for ourselves, he’s helping other people! A true inspiration

    @usmc1990pa I hope your name doesnt stand for United States Marine Corps, because I wouldnt want your ass serving our country. On a second thought, I wouldnt mind you going to Iraq and getting skull-fucked by some Arabs.

    by the way, Pennslyvania is a god-forsaken shit hole.

    I feel so bad for that boy… We take life from gran-tit everything… Until we lose something. He is truly a inspirational boy and I may be 23, but I look up to him.

    Keep on being the wonderful person tha you are! God loves you!

  • PaleBunnyPisslamSux said:

    Man listening to him explain his feelings and his fears on that day, the fact that well he no longer has to worry about that any more because its already happened- he is so smart and articulate – he is explaining things in a way that most adults cannot express !! what a thoughtful intelligent person, being able to accept what has happened and go on with life in a way we cant even fathom

  • PaleBunnyPisslamSux said:

    OH my lord – that boy IS a true inspiration – he has fought so hard and had to suffer so many times through treatment and still is able to remain so strong – and the little children do teach us, with their strength greater than ours – suffering but still trying to comfort those around him instead of asking “why me” – we can all learn something from this young man’s courage and fortitude, unending resiliance, and his extra special way of “seeing” life – thank you for this story – bless Jakes ♥

  • WithAngelWingsWeRise said:

    Wow that’s so huge! Makes me remember to be grateful that I can see! Unreal! Thank you Jake for your bravery, your courage and not letting it get you down! God bless you man!
