For you readers outside the U.S. today is a National Holiday,Thanksgiving. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your continued readership. When I first started this blog it was originally only an attempt at keeping my mind busy to avoid mental atrophy,but it seems to have taken on a life of its own!
I thought this following story would be appropriate on a day to give thanks,as I'm sure this woman gives thanks on a regular basis. In January of 1972 Vesna Vulovic, a flight attendant on a Yugoslav Airlines flight to Copenhagen,survived a 33,000 foot fall when an explosion ripped the aircraft apart. She was the only survivor. She suffered several serious injuries (fractured skull,3 broken vertebrae, which left her temporarily paralyzed,and 2 broken legs) and was in a coma for 27 days. She did make the Guinness Book for her fall,as if that were a consolation. The photo shows Vesna at age 23.
