"What I’m doing is loaning Rick my arms and legs so he can be out there competing like everybody else. There is nothing in the world that the both of us can’t conquer together." - Dick Hoyt
This is a touching, inspiring and caring story.
Together, we can make anything come true.
I think almost everybody have watched this video before. How many people haven’t been touched by this father and son. Every times, I cry when I watch this video. This is a real story that has happened around us. The son, Rick was born in 1962 with a cerebral palsy and as a spastic quadriplegic that he is a non-speaking person. Even thought Rick has these disabilities, he still has an incredible life because his mind and spirit have been become stronger. He never thinks about to abandoned himself to despair on his life. Rick’s parents also never think about to give up him, especially his father- Dick Hoyt. For more than 20 years, Rick has been towed, pushed or carried by his father in many athletic challenges including Marathon. In my mind, Rick is an angel even though he doesn’t have wings. After he was born, he is a focal point that let his family members put more attention on him. They are together to share the love and caring. As I know, Angels who have a superior intelligence and great strength are pure spirit of the body. They exist around people who need help to give out love, wisdom and guide. There is always a smile with Rick, and in his eyes, he always keep his eyes open. It seems like he is looking for the helpless people. In the video, it showed that ‘Dick is the body; Rick is the heart.’ That’s truth. How many people will deep thinking about this story?
