A Little Faith...
I didn't really get the chance to meet him personally, but my first impression of him was pretty good. He seemed like a nice guy that my friend met during a party some time ago. His name was Kenneth Pak, or Ken as he introduced himself. We had dinner that night on August 19th 2010... At Red Robin in Chino and it was really fun. We sat in Jaq's car for so long just us talking and laughing about the most random things. He was an easy person to talk to and it made me feel really nice inside to know that there are still people out there that are so nice without an ulterior motive.
What shocked me the most was that the day after... I heard that he had gotten hit by a car later that night after we left the restaurant. He was longboarding on the sidewalk when he was hit, the coward just left him unconscious on the ground without even attempting to call the police. It was a few moments later that another person saw him on the ground that they called for the ambulance. He was in critical condition with severe head trauma along with head swelling, he was quickly transported to the hospital for surgery. Afterwards he was in a comatose state for several weeks until a few days ago that he finally opened his eyes and had begun using his arms and legs. For a person that had just met him, I am so relieved and happy for him and his family.
I write his because it amazed me what the power of faith can do to people, it brings everyone together for a cause and it makes people so much stronger. I was never one for religion, but after this incident happening to someone that didn't deserve it... I prayed so hard for him. Never in my life had I ever prayed so hard (well exception to the point in my life when my mother was fighting breast cancer) and I ask that if you see this post, please... Say a small prayer for Ken that he'll make a full recovery. Even if you're a complete stranger, it'll mean so much.
