23 Things: Thing 6 #2

I love this photo of my daughter, Hannah, and her great-grandfather. He was in the hospital, at age 97, after he fell and injured his hip. Of course we drove to PA immediately because we all know that the prognosis for the elderly with this type of injury is usually not good. This was not the case with Dr. Frank R. Braden, Jr. After a short stay in the hospital he went home, continued to practice medicine, turned 100, and finally decided to retire. He's doing well, still reads, travels, and wants to get to know as many people as possible. He's a great historian for his town of Coraopolis, PA and a true legend. He is truly and inspiration to our daughter, our family, and all of those who meet him. I uploaded this photo to Flickr and was able to fix it up a bit.
