Hello Friend,

  His name was Fleming, and he was a poor Scottish
farmer. One day, while trying to make a living for his
family, he heard a cry for help coming from a nearby
bog. He dropped his tools and ran to the bog.

 There, mired to his waist in black muck, was a
terrified boy, screaming and struggling to free
himself. Farmer Fleming saved the lad from what
could have been a slow and terrifying death.

 The next day, a fancy carriage pulled up to the
Scotsman's sparse surroundings. An elegantly
dressed nobleman stepped out and introduced
himself as the father of the boy Farmer Fleming had
saved.

" I want to repay you," said the nobleman. "You saved
my son's life."

"No, I can't accept payment for what I did." the
Scottish farmer replied waving off the offer. At that
moment, the farmer's own son came to the door of
the family hovel.

"Is that your son?" the nobleman asked.
"Yes," the farmer replied proudly. "I'll make
you a deal. Let me provide him with the level
of education my own son will enjoy. If the lad
is anything like his father, he'll no doubt grow
to be a man we both will be proud of." And that
he did.

Farmer Fleming's son attached the very best
schools and in time, Graduated from St. Mary's
Hospital Medical School in London, and went on
to become known throughout the world as the
noted Sir Alexander Fleming, the discoverer of
Penicillin.

 Years afterward, the same nobleman's son who
was saved from the bog was stricken with
pneumonia.

 What saved his life this time? Penicillin.

 The name of the nobleman? Lord Randolph
Churchill. His son's name?

 Sir Winston Churchill.

 Someone once said: What goes around comes
around.

Work like you don't need money.
Love like you've never been hurt.
Dance like nobody's watching.
Sing like nobody's listening.
Live like it's Heaven on Earth.

It's National Friendship Week. Send
this to everyone you consider A FRIEND.

Pass this on, and brighten someones day.

Best regards.
