Good Souls

I wanted to share this picture with you all. I received this clip from a newspaper in an email I got from a friend. It not only touches my heart that someone would hold a child all night to give her some comfort after such a horrendous experience, but it also shows that even though there are some horrible things that happen there are some angels that bring some light and goodness.

The caption at the bottoms reads "Air Force Chief Master Sgt. John Gebhardt, of the 332nd Expeditionary Medical Group at Balad, Iraq, cradles a young girl as they both sleep in the hospital. The girl's entire family was executed by insurgents; the killers shot her in the head as well. The girl received treatment at the U.S. Military hospital in Balad, but cries and moans often. According to nurses at the facility Gebhardt is the only one who can calm down the girl, so he has spent the last several nights holding her while they both sleep in a chair."
