Hey, strong citizen-soldier hybrid. I just want to say that I really hate that anybody has to go through this. I want to say it is really painful for me to imagine your pain, but I can't because I don't know that pain.

I do have narcolepsy pretty darn bad, so I have that going for me, though! We're not that different, right? :D Wrong; because alas, I thought I had it bad... and then I read this.

If I could alleviate your pain, I would. I really, really would. I am so sorry.

Your story to my life is like a fire, meeting another fire (because, you know, fires make fires, stronger right?)... I just wish I could make you, the spark, stronger.

I saw you mention that you look around and hate some people for being healthy. That is justified so easily. Your struggles are the reason why I believe so strongly in those with able bodies working and making those bodies stronger. You have to struggle to live, while there are so many able bodies not making use of the abilities that they were blessed with. If you have to struggle, I will struggle with you! I will forever keep your story in my heart, and use it to justify living and working out.

Meanwhile, I want you and your heart to be as pain-free as possible. It's too bad I can't do that. But I will pray and be here for moral support if you need it. Keep fighting you soldier-citizen hybrid-thing

First, I want to thank you for all that you have done. I love nature, animals, working out, and the concept of world peace, all that good stuff, and you are an embodiment of those things. You are yet another inspiring example of movement in the positive direction. The good deeds you do throughout your life will leave a permanent mark on the world.

Second, I want to say I hate that you went through such horrible things in your life. I cannot begin to comprehend the horror you faced. There should be no reason for any of the racism, sexism, cruelty, etc that exists today to exist at all, considering it was less than 100 years ago since the Holocaust was finally over.

What toll did your body take as a result of your Holocaust experience?
