Remember
a while back I wrote about Salvatore 'Sam' Ross - a young soldier who was blinded in Iraq? His only dream was to have a house and go to school.
I wrote to Homes for Our Troops and they responded that they were, 'looking into it.'
I wrote again recently to see if there was an update - and today Dawn Teixeira posted this link.

They just got started building Sam's home.
ISN'T THAT WONDERFUL?
I feel so happy for him I could cry.
I'm not sure WE did anything to make this come about - but - I feel good that we emailed Homes for Our Troops to at least light a spark.
Donate to this organization if you can. I wish I lived closer to Pittsburgh because I would be swinging a hammer to help out Sam.
