Officer Seth Thompson is the embodiment of heroism in the face of adversity.  After being diagnosed with cancer several years ago, he battled and beat cancer, TWICE.  His wife is currently battling Stage IV breast cancer, they've got a young son, and are now faced with yet another tragedy.

On Saturday, May 4th, Officer Thompson was working a traffic accident in Lufkin, TX when an oncoming vehicle struck him. Officer Thompson likely saved the life of the man beside him, pushing him out of the way, before being struck by the vehicle.  Officer Thompson is currently in the hospital where he is regaining his strength to be able to walk again, and likely will have a long road to recovery ahead.  Please keep this family in your thoughts and prayers in the days, weeks, and months ahead.  The funds raised will go towards his recovery, medical bills, and supporting his family in this difficult time.
