Princess Samantha Kennedy Duchess of Oltu and Son Sir Adam Want You To Remember Our Veterans

There are no movies to speak of tonight, except for one request, to remember our Veterans.  My son's father was a Vietnam Veteran and also an expert in Karate and he taught Karate.  He is a college graduate who was an engineer until recently when he had an accident.   While on the job site John had a serious fall and almost died.  Adam's father John has had some brain damage and his recovery is very slow.  It is very heartbreaking, this is not a movie, this is real life.  John's grandparents came to New York from Italy around the turn of the Century, the best people on earth.  We ask for your prayers and that you pray for John and to remember all Veterans who have fought for this Country.  Just a few short years ago, right before we moved to Imperial Beach from Oceanside, a truck had hit my son and I.  We had to go to the hospital, we were the recipients of two crashing vehicles, one a truck that hit my side as I was driving to deliver a care package.  I got the worse of it and I had to have many months of physical therapy.  It has not been easy, but, we ask for your prayers.  Our son is a high functioning autistic young man who like his father is a genius, he is the smartest person I know and we are very proud of Adam.  Adam was commended by President Clinton and he was on television too.  Please remember all Veterans this week who fought for this Country and say a prayer for our John.
