Patrick Hughes is a young man at Univ. of Louisville who was born blind and crippled and yet now plays the piano beautifully as well as "marches" in the Louisville marching band. This was a piece done during ESPN College Gameday on 12/2/2006. Note: I am not affiliated with the Hughes family. Just someone who finds their story wonderful.

Nov 14, 2008 - Do you have to stuff god into every hole you see?
awteto Says:
Nov 14, 2008 - How can you not!! Apparantly you don't believe in him...so I'm not gonna bother with you. Not worth my time. Adios!!
barisozdil Says:
Nov 14, 2008 - Aaaa - ok. I have to believe in him first! I'll try next time. You say: "How can one not believe in GOD". This is like saying that "there must be something wrong with who dont believe in fairytales and bullshit!" Patrick Henry must have worked hard for his success, absolutely nothing to do with a god.

Nov 21, 2008 - they remember the billions of children born into disease and poverty and the innocent victims of war. pity "GOD" can't allocate his time more appropriately to those who don't stand a chance of surviving past their first birthday.

Nov 21, 2008 - God gave him the Gift of life and musical talent. So God did help out. You need to try and be more positive and supportive of other people. Who cares what someone thinks about God, focus on your own beliefs... I just think that you should be more positive along with all the other negative people around... it is a nice thing to do.

Nov 25, 2008 - wow. Patrick's father is a great man. He could have given up on his son and walked away, but he molded his son into something and gave him a purpose in life rather than just being a disabled person.

Jan 6, 2009 - Thank you all for your wonderful comments and support. Please read my blog at patrickhenryhughes(dot)com about UL Athletic Administrators efforts to exclude me from participation and their threats to ban my dad and I from Athletic events. Write the University about Athletics attack on higher education. If we don't make a stand here, it will happen everywhere. God bless.
