I was watching a show on PBS tonight about a man named Jason Crigler.
It was...fascinating. And inspiring.
He was a well known guitar player in NYC who played for the likes of Norah Jones, and others.
One night he had a massive stroke.
The doctors told his family he would either die or be in a vegetative like state.
They told his family he should be put in a nursing home and offered little hope of a normal life.
His family decided against that route and put all their combined efforts into his rehabilitation.
He had to relearn everything. Everything.
With the help of his family and motivation from his little baby girl and wife, he has almost fully recovered.
And as you would imagine, he had to completely relearn how to play his guitar, and now he is performing again.
It was totally amazing.
Watch this video of him performing.
If you need a triumph over tragedy story, this is the one for you.
