Here are a few comments on the video:
"There are a million reasons why this is the most incredible kickass thing I have ever seen. If you are not swayed by this then you are missing the point of life. Listen to what that guy is saying -- he's lifting her up in a way only he can. They go from devastated to feeling better- why is it so friggin hard for us to realize that this is what we're all supposed to be doing."
"Wow beautiful and inspiring. Thank you for sharing this, thanks to the Marines and all others like him who don't give up and spread their courage on, and lots of love and encouragement to Celeste and Sydney. I'm so sorry to you both and for what it is worth, I am rooting along with millions of others for you to be healthy and happy."
"It's incredible what humor and a strong will can do for someone. This video, I think, captures a lot of what I feel the nation is experiencing now. It threw us off, but we'll be all right. I'm angry as hell that such a beautiful woman and her daughter have had to experience this pain; but I'm relieved knowing that this marks a new phase in their lives. I wish them the best."
"Iraq vet here, makes me proud and honored to see wounded soldiers with such strong character, and lets face it... Probably a heck of a lot more love for life than I have. God bless them and these woman, all the victims, in recovering not just from the physical wounds, but from the emotional wounds as well. As he said, this is the start, the new beginning."
"Amazing folks all of them. I am proud to be an American."
