For those moments I was eternally grateful it helped me cope with the countless days when she would stare at my face often struggling to remember who I was. She was robbed of the ability to love her Children until the end and we were robbed of her Maternal Lifelong Bond when this cruel disease rendered her unable to know who we were.

As a Korean, it is quite meaningful to see a Korean war vet treated with such degree of respect. Thank you for your service to not only your, but our country, that we may live free and prosper. Wish for your best! Lest we forget our 16 allies that aided the conflict by sending troops to foreign lands that they knew nothing of to protect its people they didn't even know the names to, the 5 allies that assisted with medical supplies that saved countless lives in the field of battle, the 39 allies that aided with supplies and funding to single handedly save the war effort. In your sacrifice, in your memory, we give thanks and live on, giving back just as we have once received. For that opportunity I give thanks!
