Leonard,
Your dad's perseverance to overcome all these issues is inspiring to me. I hope you both enjoy every day spent together.

Your Everyday Hero: Leonard L.

My dad is my hero. It's been five years since he had his first seizure. After that came the diagnosis of a brain tumor. Then epilepsy, and most recently prostate cancer. But he's still here. Waking up every morning like the rest of us, wondering what other challenges lie ahead. And secretly wishing, that he'll have another day.
