::Home Coming - A Soldier's Story::

a soldier after his tour of duty in Vietnam was coming home. from San Francisco, he called his parents. "mom and dad. i'm coming home, but i've got a favor to ask. can i bring a friend home?" "sure" they replied, "we'd love to meet him". "there's something you should know", the son continued. "he was hurt pretty badly in the fighting. he stepped on a land mine and LOST AN ARM AND LEG. he has nowhere else to go and i want him to come live with us", "i'm sorry to hear that son. maybe we can help him find somewhere to live". "no, mom and dad, i want him to live with us". "son", said the father, "you don't know what you're asking. someone with such a handicap would be a terrible burden on us. we have our own lives to live. i think you should come home and forget about this guy. he'll be okay".

hearing this, the son hung up the phone. the parents heard nothing from him until they got a call from the San Francisco police a few days later. their son died after falling from a building and the police believed it was suicide. the grief-stricken parents identified him at the morgue and ti their horror discovered that he had come back with ONLY ONE ARM AND ONE LEG. always have the facts before we make decision.
