    "You do whatever you have to for the one you love." I was already crying from the first few moments of this video, and then his wife said this...and then I started sobbing. This situation is so difficult, but the unconditional love she had for her husband and her amazing attitude are so inspiring.

I pray he gets the lift for his vehicle so he can get out of the house and do what he needs to do . I could watch stories like this all day , and my heart goes out to all these families. If only these famous Actors that make millions could do something like this. May God Bless and watch over this amazing family , and others in need of his love. :):):):):)
