A Brave Heart is a Powerful Weapon

Last night's "Nightline" featured Rudy Garcia-Tolson, a teenager who despite having had both legs amputated at age 5, has let nothing get in his way. He has a Paralympics gold medal in swimming and is about to participate in the Iron Man Triathalon.

"Relentless" was the word that kept coming up when "Nightline's" report had to describe Rudy. I'd be interested to know if you can hear his story and not feel inspired to reach your goals.

There is no video available on ABCnews.com. But, you can read his story here, and listen to the Podcast of the February 7th, 2006 broadcast -scan about 12:00 in. (note: podcast may become unavailable at some point).
