1. The person I consider the most heroic is Patricia Sawo. She is considered the most heroic because her and her husband established the Discover to Recover Centre. This was created to give care to tose adults who were diagnosed with HIV/AIDS. This soon became a home for the children who lost there parents because of HIV/AIDS. Instead of Patrica using the fact that she was diagnosed with HIV/AIDS as a weakness, she used it as a oppurtunity to help inform and use nearly all her income to help those in need. She pays school fees for the older children and put the younger children in preschool. She considers the children her life.

2.If I had the chance to nominate someone to be my hero, I would nominate Linnae Bryant. She is my grandmother, she is the reason Im financially stable. My grandmother helps me with my needs and wants. My grandmother is well educated and considered successful. I look up to her and try to follow in her career and educational paths. My grandmother has already raised 2 daughters, and now she starting over with me. She does this out of her love for me because she does not have to take care of me.

3. We study heroes in history because the warriors and knights we studied are considered heroes. They are considered heroes because they give protection to those around them. In the middle ages, the upperclass and people they protect are the ones who decides who is heroic.
