    Default A real-life Odetta?

    Not surprisingly, when I saw this story today, I couldn't help but think of Odetta Holmes (and by the way, if you're weak of stomach, brace yourself before clicking; the description is pretty gooshy): Good Samaritan saves woman whose legs severed by train - The Globe and Mail

    Of course, she had no Jack Mort pushing her...

    Holy-Moly! As a nurse, I gotta give this feller all the props in the world...and the comparison is understandable to say the least...
