PFC. JOSHUA SPARLING SPEAKS

Joshua Sparling, the injured soldier who received that disgusting death-wish greeting card before Christmas last month, is on the road to recovery. Doctors have given him good odds that his leg will be saved. The Political Teen has the latest and also has posted audio links to Pfc. Sparling's radio interviews on the Sean Hannity show.

Reader Tony J. reports that Sparling "took his first steps since this injury, walking (hopping) 12 feet to the door and 10 feet back to the chair to sit down. He will be on crutches for about one year from today." Tony also sends along this photo of Pfc. Sparling in his hospital room at Walter Reed, with boxes of get-well cards and letters in the foreground:

We're still praying for you, Joshua. Get well soon!

You didn't ping me? Something I said? :)

Prayers for Josh, his family, and friends, and all our troops and their families.

Josh questioned me about FR extensively. All in good time, my FRiend. His dad already is out there with us on the street.

Exactly. His Dad has said that as soon as he's able Josh wants to come out to greet us on the street.

Wonderful pictures! Glad Mr. Sparling confronted the Pinkos the way he did. Great guy...and a real hero!

Thanks for including me. If you get a chance, shake Mr. Sparling's hand for me and thank him for his service and for his wonderful son's sacrifice for us! God bless them and you!

Seeing the American and USMC flags flying high on the other side of the street was beautiful. Hooray for ConcreteBob!

Thank you, JA. I'm so glad to hear he is walking again. I pray that he continues to heal. The PT is grueling, but you won't hear them complain.

Did you see the FNS Person of the Year, a doctor(?) at WR, talking about the troops there and how they continue to go beyond where the doctors and therapists think they can?

[cgk]

Malkin ping!

Please FReepmail me if you would like to be added to, or removed from, the Michelle Malkin ping list...

Thanks for the head's up :)

as soon as he's able Josh wants to come out to greet us on the street.

What a great moment that will be. We are so fortunate that Josh and so many like him are there for us.
