A Teacher Appreciation Story that Inspires

[BigRay19781]

Dr. Lee Buono placed a "SHUNT" in my brain when I had a hemorrhagic stroke in 2007. He told my wife "He is going to be just fine"! She refused to listen to anyone else speculate. 20 days later I came out of a COMA and 50 days later I walked out of REHAB! I now own an insurance agency in Texarkana, AR. One day I am going to go see Dr. Buono and thank o him in person. Until then, Dr. Buono, I thank GOD for you and your work!!

Dr. Lee Buono was a classmate of mine at Memorial Middle school, congrats to Lee for going on to become a neurosurgeon and helping others. Mr. Si was a great teacher, I remember him!

Dr Buono removed a tumor in the Our Lady of Lourdes Emergency Room Friday night that had me stumbling into the hospital unable to speak. He saved my life, and the teacher that inspired him to become this incredible surgeon needs to be thanked as well. Thank God for the Dr Lee Buonos and those that inspired them, I will be forever grateful

Really inspiring. Everyone has a hero. My hero was an elementary Teacher who did not discriminate his top student dispite the fact she is from a minority background back in Indonesia.

I would also like to thank the teacher who inspired the brilliant surgeon who performed the craniotomy to remove the meningioma on my left frontal lobe Friday. Picture perfect and doing great! And - Thank you Dr Buono! Good luck with all your future endeavors. The world is a better place because of you.

Anyone that watches this remember him always saying:

You could always quite. But when you do, you need to only know a few words- good morning and welcome to mcdonalds.

I had Mr. Sie when I was in 8th grade and I LOVED him! He always told me that I am going to save the world someday, and all I can say is that I'm working on it.

But one of the funny things about this video is that it makes him look like a totally normal person, but that is definitely NOT the case. He is completely insane (but in a good way.)

He used to shoot thumb tacks across the room by blowing through a glass tube with a sombrero on his head.

Eighth grade science.

Fun times.

There are very few more important people in your life than a teacher who believes in you and pushes you towards your strengths and abilities. This is a wonderful story about how much teachers mean in our lives.
