'We Voted For Donald Trump': PA Family Of Ailing Veteran Shares Their Story

LIMERICK, PA -- Election Day carried special meaning this year for Limerick resident Lucy Reed and the rest of her family.

Reed said that her brother, who is a disabled veteran of the Vietnam War, has been fighting for his life for some time. With the help of Clarion Ambulance, he was able to make it to the polling place to vote on November 8.

Reed, along with her brother and her brother's wife, said that her family cast their votes for Donald Trump.

Her full story is included below:

"My brother, a disabled Vietnam Veteran and his wife, who I consider my sister spared no expense to give my brother the opportunity to cast his vote yesterday for Donald J. Trump & Mike Pence. My brother has been fighting for his life for a long time now and was looking so forward to being able to vote. It meant the world to him to be able to show his patriotism and his love of country. I couldn't be prouder of my brother for somehow reaching down deep and finding the strength and courage to go into a polling place and show people how determined he was to cast a vote. My heart literally cries with pride. So when you think you have a headache, back pain or any other kind of pain, think of this patriot and I hope it will motivate you to realize so many others are much worse. At this time, we would like to thank Clarion Ambulance and their wonderful staff for bringing him to the polling place at St. James in Limerick. We would also like to extend our many thanks to the poll folks who went out of their way to help him fulfill his civic duty. And to all those people waiting in line that graciously allowed my sister to go to the head of the line so she could be with her husband. We are very grateful. For us, yesterday showed us the good in the American people and neighbors. We will never forget your kindness."
