Heart of Invictus

I love all these vets stories especially Gabe and Darrell's. These brave men and women are the true definition of heroes. I am so proud of them all and also the families and friends that came out and sacrificed so much to show their love and support for their love ones. Wishing all the men and women the very best of luck in the upcoming Invictus Games in Germany next month. I am hoping to see Gabe, Darrell, Tom, Na and the members of the Ukraine team in Germany so I too can be able to root for them. I am especially looking forward to see Anna and her mother as well. Sending love and prayers to you all.

Orlando von Einsiedel and his team have done it again. The White Helmets documentary won an Oscar for Orlando in 2016. You will find all that great film making and storytelling talent here. The six international soldiers stories are poignant and inspirational and complex. It is impressive how the Invictus Games use sport as a way to not only rebuild and re-engage physically but build community with true social friendships and supports. It also clearly lifts up families. It is clear why the Invictus Games has been a huge success. Kudos Prince Harry for being a catalyst in making this happen. This is great viewing regardless if you know someone in the military. It is something we all should see. To all the Invictus Games participants; good luck you are amazing.

This is an observation of how giving a person a new chance in their lives, how much they can grow. It's about Military Personnel from around the world who have experienced a life altering event, some lost limbs, sense of self; and what The Invictus Games has done to help them in their lives. Harry might make a comment or appearance here or there, but it's less than ten min spread across 5 episodes. You'll root for Gabe, Na, and Jasper. You'll see the horrors of survival from Yuilia and see her daughter honor her. You'll feel for Darrell as he overcomes his anxieties. There's so many stories and moments that show a new life after war. This is a Human Interest Documentary about an organization actually doing something for our Veterans worldwide.

Showing true grit and humanity. Phenomenal series. Really highlights veterans and the obstacles they face. Also shows the work and determination it takes to put the games together. It's about far more than Prince Harry. His leadership shows but the work of others is definitely Highlighted. I loved how athletes from around the world told their stories and showed their team mates. It's a very well done series. You can watch one or all of the episodes and get a true sense of the invictus games and everything behind them.

It's a testimony to Harry and Netflix to put this together and donate the funds to the games.

Watching this documentary is so eye opening to these men and women who have been injured give their all is encouraging. I hope they all heal well lovely series.

Shoutout to Prince Harry and his team for working and having the patience with the veterans whilst shooting this documentary.

Lovely a must watch Also remember to support the veterans in your country and community.

As I watch and see the support the family and support team give I can't imagine what they go through at home caring for their spouse and parents especially when they're having an attack it seems gut wrenching but hope is not lost.
