Yusuf / Cat Stevens - Father & Son

[George McGovern]

Played this song often for my 20YO Son who laid comatose in a hospital from a horrific car accident (drunk driver hit him head-on as he was coming home from work) I Kept telling him it wasn’t his time yet. Today, 2 and a half years later he’s on his way to making a full recovery! Never give up! Hope to make a video on his amazing journey soon. Thanks for your prayers and well wishes.
Update: been 3 years, works out everyday, still not there but making progress. I remembered that Not long after he regained his ability to speak, I played the song for him once again. He turned to me and says "Dad, this song was in Guardians of the Galaxy 2". Wow! I had no idea....

I am glad your son is making progress and pray he will be 100% soon. I detest drunks who drive.
