HEROs provide support to Boston Marathon bombing victims
When the bombs went off near the finish line of the Boston Marathon in April 2013, thousands of miles away in Denver, Colorado, Gabe Martinez knew immediately that the lives of those injured would never be the same.
He also knew that for those who suffered life-changing injuries, life would indeed go on.
Martinez is a living testament. On Thanksgiving Day 2010, while serving in the U.S. Marine Corps in Afghanistan, a bomb exploded. After spending 22 years with his natural born legs, he lost both in a split second.
