This guy is awesome, especially since he doesn't have any arms
I think too many people in North America get stressed and then take anti-depressants
It's amazing how in 3rd world countries they just deal with it, but here.... drugs drugs drugs
And addictive ones at that
But look at this guy, his medicine is LIFE!!!!!!!!!!
My brother is handicapped to a certain degree (deaf and autistic) so throughout my life I've been exposed to people have many different handicaps both
physically and mentally. I've met completely wheelchair bound people who physically are completely helpless in everyway but mentally are near genius.
One girl of 13 I met, if I told her the date of my birthday and then randomly selected any year in the past or future, could tell me which day of the
week my birthday would fall on even if it were 1000 years from now (I checked and she was right every time).
Many handicapped people are, believe it or not, are some of the happiest folks out there purely cos they accepted there physical or mental limitations
very early on and therefore no longer have the superficial hangups many of us suffer from.
Here is a very inspiring video about a guy called Nick Vujicic who was born with no arms or legs and now travels the world as a motivational speaker.
Many people may have seen this already but I think it's worth posting again.

There is a very limited amount of drugs that can grow arms back.
Sorry for flippant remark but I couldn't help myself.
There are lots of Americans, and others, with disabilities that do amazing things.
