If you dropped thirty bucks on flowers and chocolates for your significant other this Valentine’s Day in hopes of getting some action, you better make sure she doesn’t see this.
Jessica Kensky and her husband Patrick Downes both lost a leg in the horrific Boston Marathon bombing on Patriot’s Day. Yesterday, they were walking through Copley Square with their service dog and a camera crew from WBZ-TV, thinking they were doing an interview about their animal.
Well, at least Patrick thought he was.
That’s because Jessica had staged the event along with NEADS, a group which provides service animals to disabled people. The interview was just a front for what her real gift to her husband this Valentine’s Day: a hot young lady singing “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” that suddenly turned into a flash mob.
Only this wasn’t your ordinary Thursday afternoon Copley Square flash mob. This one was made up of Boston Marathon bombing survivors, social workers, nurses, friends and family members.
“The special part for me was all the familiar faces in the group,” Kensky said. “The majority of which we’ve met through this process, through the last 10 months. They were part of our recovery so do something where we are all dancing and celebrating, and not doing our wound care and dressing changes. It’s just really fun.”
Wow. Good luck with those chocolates, guy.
