NEW BRAUNFELS, Texas - "A dying veteran's wish was to hear from you, and on Sunday a friend of Army veteran Lee Hernandez's family posted an update saying the overwhelming support crashed his phone.
"The fact that people contacted him and there were people who cared, has really made a dramatic effect on Lee's mood and spirit and overall health," an update posted to a GoFundMe page for Hernandez said. "Today he has had one of the best days in a long time and even danced!"
Last week, a Facebook post on the Arizona Veterans Fourm said Hernandez, 47, who suffers from a mystery illness that causes him to have strokes that affect his vision and cognitive abilities, recently asked his wife to hold his cell phone for him."
