Vince performed bravely in battle ...he did not think he was invincible, to the contrary, he felt he was going to die. He felt he had no alternative, since many of those serving with him stood to die if it had not been for his heroics. Vince had no idea if he could save them, but he knew he must try. He felt he had little chance to live, but they had a slight chance if he sacrificed his life. And he died, not knowing that he'd saved many more than he'd ever anticipated.
Three years later, Cassie dies in an automobile crash ...but her and Vince's child survives in the protective child seat and harness.
This story certainly has much sadness to it, but the worst part is that their child, Chance, had no living relative to take care of him. Protective Services takes over at this point ...and sets him up in a home.
There are many good homes out there to provide for the homeless ...but, it so happens this is not one of them.
Chance is bounced around from home to home ...with seemingly the odds against him, not landing in any of the good ones.
