An Inner Truth

I served in the united States Marines for ten years, and I was sure that it was the right career for me. Drinking was a pastime for many in my platoon and I fit right in. Then, in September of 1984, my life was turned upside down. One night, while returning from liberty, I was injured in a motorcycle accident that left me both physically and spiritually changed for the rest of my life. After eighteen months in the hospital and thirty-six surgeries, my right leg had to be amputated.
