That's very powerful... in the peak of despair only something as beautiful at art can make things seem a little bit better. :-)

Your Everyday Hero: Marcus T.

Marcus has demonstrated extreme determination to overcome injuries that left him quadriplegic. He has learned to paint beautiful pictures by holding the paintbrush in his mouth. The incredible thing about this is that he did not know he could paint before his injuries caused him to be unable to use his arms or hands. He always manages to keep his, and others, spirits up.
