Young man declares his 'independence'

"Showing true American spirit, Beckner walked the entire course of the race using a wheelchair only half of the way."

Good job Cameron...Keep up the the hard work...

But P.O. how did he walk the entire course if he also used a wheel chair part way. Should have read that he finished the entire course? Some things will never change...

WAY TO GO CAMERON!!!

Confused,
What Cameron did was amazing.

Even if the P.O. did not catch the error, why bring it to the attention of others?

Why detract from this wonderful story by mentioning something negative about the P.O.?

I choose to focus on the achievements of Cameron and hope you do the same. Perhaps in life, you can focus on the positives rather than the shortcomings of others.

Shame on you!

Thank you for this story. These stories give me hope.
And may I remember this story before I complain about anything for the rest of the day.
Bless you, Cameron.
:-)

"Just close your eyes, and all you hear is happy."
Beautiful statement, Mr Brian Stum, thank you.

Keep up the fight, Cameron, you are doing great!

Amen. Makes me think of the next time I'm at a place with happy sounds that I need to close my eyes.

Atta boy Cameron! You're a great example!

Roxann, Once again the journalism grade for a professional at the PO is F. For failure to do your job in a professional manner. Great story, poorly done. Confused is right on the money! Thanks PO keep trying. Maybe some day....no never mind.

Oh so your the perfect person in life....never a negative comment about anything ...get a life... what was written about the P.O. had nothing to do with Cameron it had everything to do with poor writing at the paper. Just like a weather man who can be wrong 50% of the time and still keep their job.
Excellant work Cameron !!

Wow. Not only do you lack couth, you also lack reading and writing comprehension. I think you may just be shitzel out of luck!

What a great job, Cameron. You are truly an inspirational young man. Hope your recovery is fast and complete.

Way to go Cameron! You are an inspiration to many people! And kudos to Brad and Tiffany for raising such a wonderful young man!

Nice job Cam!!!!!!!!!!

...just as long as you are not closing your eyes, standing on the tracks of an approaching train full of clowns.
