WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Army Cpl. Shane Parsons is his mother’s hero.“Watching my son struggle and suffer is quite stressful,” Cindy Parsons typed in her online journal Oct. 18. “But then I just look around here and I realize, boy there is always someone worse than you. There are wonderful families that are going through the same situations.”Cindy has been supporting her son, a 21-year-old Fostoria High School graduate, as he recovers at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center.
