Mr. Nevins lost his left leg while deployed in Iraq and after over 30 surgeries and a bone infection, his right leg was also removed. Afterwards, Mr. Nevin has climbed Mount Kilimanjaro. “There is nothing I can’t do;·he told a group of children on the beach, whose parents brought them  over to meet and  thank him. “My feet never hurt;’ Mr. Nevins added. “I can walk on fire or hot coals, it doesn’t hurt at all. That’s the silver lining; he told them. “I was in combat in Iraq. My legs were hurt so bad they couldn’t fix them, so they took them off. It’s all good;’ he said. Now, he told the kids he is doing “awesome: ·”When something happens and I can’t control it, I have a choice to be sad or I can choose to make the best of it; he explained.
