    I am just stunned at the sheer strength of these lads,I am also so moved,I want to say proud because I am, but I don't feel I have a right to claim any ownership of them.What incredible men they are!Certainly humbling.

    Tom is extraordinary - nothing's going to beat him. I would worry for Andy, I think the loss of sight is probably more scary than the loss of limbs. However he seems to be coming to terms with it as things progress.

    I just hope that prick Brown and his fucking cronies are watching- they are not fit to lick their boots.

    Just hope they get the support now and a long time into the future? For once UK Plc needs to ensure they do the right thing all the way down the line!

    I have to admit i dont have dusty room moments, but i did watching this program. I was in that Intensive Care ward a couple of weeks ago visiting one of my lads who was in a IED. He was very seriously injured but is thank God well on way to recovery. In fact came into camp yesterday on cruthches but still needing a lot of recovery. I remembered when i went into the ward how humbled i was looking at him and other seriously ill lads in there. Selly Oak does wonderful things and hopefully the general public will watch this and understand more.

    These lads are why we are so proud of those who volunteer to do these jobs.

    Now I just have to go and find where the tooth fairy has hidden the onions that seem to be in the air.

    Puts all the niff naff and insignificant trivia of normal daily life right back into perspective. I for one will be waking in the morning with a brighter outlook and counting my lucky stars that I can get out of bed without effort, walk to the bathroom and see my face in the mirror to shave. Right off to do some housework, this dust is really too much.
