Is that what America is about? Is this behavior how we want to be seen around the world? I don’t know. I’m torn on the issue. My son was born the day before the attack, and when we were leaving Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church after his baptism the news on the radio was that we had invaded Afghanistan to find Osama Bin Laden “dead or alive.” Not only did the man ruin my son’s entrance into this world, he also had an impact on my son’s special day of being accepted into the Catholic Edsen Donato, DPTSc, PT, OCS, CHT, CSCS Jeff Wood, MS, PT Joint Replacement Andrew Roberts, DPT Back & Neck Injury Jim McCall, PTA Sports Injury Austin Nickerson, PTA Certified Hand Therapist Three Convenient Locations Grants Pass (541) 476-2502 1619 NW Hawthorn Ave. #109 Cave Junction (541) 592-6580 218 N Redwood Hwy.
