It's been 3 yrs. since the bombing. Whoosh. Time flew.
I remember this young man, Jeff Bauman & the guy in the cowboy hat, Carlos Arredondos.
Today Jeff, along with Jake Gyllenhaal who is carrying Jeff's little girl, threw out the first ball at a Red Sox game. Jeff's wife was running the Boston Marathon. Jake is going to play Jeff in a biopic that is going to be made.
The girl is another person who lost her leg that day. She's a dancer and she just ran the marathon. There are a bunch of awesome stories about those who have endured & succeeded since then.
I feel sad & mad all over again when I see pix from that day.
If I am not mistaken, I recently read where a young lady who had lost her leg in the Boston bombing was visiting, I think, in Australia, and died in an auto accident. I should have looked it up before I spoke, I guess, but I was shocked when I read it....
