I'm a cowboys fan, along with our oldest son. My wife, daughter and in-laws are Eagles fans! Our youngest goes back and forth saying go Cowboys or go Eagles. My wife and in-laws are going to Philadelphia the weekend the Cowboys play the Eagles. It just so happens the game is on October 16th. The same day I stepped on a landmine in Afghanistan in 2010. My wish would be to go to the game with my family and enjoy it on my alive day. I know as a Cowboys fan walking into the Linc would be hostile territory but to experience this with my family on a day like that would really just make me happy. Also, being limb salvage for 12 years has taken its toll on my foot. I still have an open wound and am in the process of figuring out logistics to get a below the knee amputation. I go to BAMC to talk about surgery in August 2022. I most likely would have it after the game.

Thank You Message from the Hero:
On behalf of me, my wife and in-laws. We would like to say thank you to Derek, Ann, Melissa, Christopher, Karen, Rigoberto, Steve, Larry, Donald, Jonathan, Wounded Warrior, Retir, and Mark. This is definitely a check off the bucket list! Thank y'all so much for donating for us to go to the game. We really had the best time! Even though my Cowboys lost, it was awesome! This truly meant a lot to me and I couldn't think of a better way to have celebrated my alive day! Please keep my wife and kids in your prayers as I have decided to go through with a below knee amputation October 20, 2022 at BAMC. Being limb salvage for 12 years has finally taken its toll. To be able to go to this game right before my surgery, it truly has helped my spirit in so many ways. Again, thank you to all of the donors, Y'all are the reason this was made possible! Appreciate y'all so much! God Bless!
