Proof of the indomitable human spirit.
Rules:
- Posts must inspire hope or highlight the beauty of existence
- Posts and comments harassing or antagonizing a real person will be removed
- Posts mentioning religious topics are allowed but religion should not be the main point of the post. E.g. “God’s beautiful world” is fine because of the “beautiful world” part, but “God loves you” isn’t because religion is the focal point
- Posts and comments judging group of people in negative way based on stereotype will be removed.
- No posts with toxic positivity. All human emotions are valid.
- Staight up doomer/doomer-trolling comments will be removed. Reasonable disscustion and asking for hope is fine.

How do you mean sacrifice?
My guess would be mental health.
“Recoveries” likely means finding the people who didn’t survive.
Unfortunately, this is very true. I've been out longer than I was in, and I remember the losses not the wins.
Edit: the one 'win' I remember, we got a letter from a lady 2 years after the event. She wrote to us to thank us for getting daughter to the trauma center alive....so that the doctors could harvest her organs, and mom was able to hear her daughter's heart beating in someone else's chest a year later.
fuuuck
I'm not crying, you're crying.
That's very interesting to hear, thank you for sharing.
Broadfern is 100% correct.
