    I've been keeping track of this young man via YT for the last few years. He's absolutely amazing, and his parents must be as well, considering they have control of his money for now. I'm referring, of course, to all the philanthropic work he's done already, and continues to do.
    I've been crocheting for 51 years, and I have to say, my skills are not as good as his. I taught both my son, and my older nephew to crochet. Son crocheted until his death at the age of 31, and he taught his then-girlfriend how to crochet.
    Nephew crochets every night after work, he and his wife together.
    It's wonderful to see young people continuing one of the oldest, most useful crafts in the world!

So happy to know he's now in high school. *Looking forward to seeing great things from you Jonah! Keep up the good work and never lose your altruistic spirit.* @ 2:39 that photo is on page 21 of his book, *"Hello, CROCHET Friends!"* and is my favorite photo of Jonah. The excitement, gleam, and anticipation in his eyes and on his face is so beautiful!

    So special. Only God will fill the whole in his heart from his abandonment. He is blessed and I hope he knows it. The crocheting should slow down during med school, don't you think? Or do you think he will find a way to keep up with it?

    • @jb6712
      @jb6712 7 месяцев назад +2

      Hole (in his heart). "Whole" means 'all of,' 'undamaged,' 'in one piece'...the opposite of what you meant, I'm sure.
      I worked in healthcare for 45 years prior to retirement, and know several doctors, both men and women, who used (and still use) such crafts to help them with stress relief. They all said the same thing; crafting, no matter what it is, lets (them) get their mind off all the heavy stuff for a little bit.
      Jonah might slow down a little during West Point and then med school, but I doubt he'll give up crocheting entirely.
      I sure hope he doesn't give it up!
