My favorite story from the Bob Woodruff general session was the story of Bruce Springsteen. Springsteen had heard he was a fan, so he sent a bunch of CDs when Woodruff was still in a coma.

Lee Woodruff, Bob's wife, told the story that she had read the letter to Bob, adding a few embellishments--incentives if you will, to entice him to wake. She read in the letter that when he wakes up, the Boss will come down to Bethesda, Maryland to see him.

A couple of days after we woke up, speech still hard to come by, made a motion that he needed to get a guitar. When they figured out what he was saying, they asked him why he wanted a guitar and he said he needed it for when "the boss man comes to visit."

"We're all telling him we love him all the time," Lee says, "and this is what he remembers when he wakes up."
