A tragedy led James Costello to the love of his life.

Costello, 31, was standing with friends near the finish line of the Boston Marathon on April 15 when a bomb exploded on Boylston Street, according to the Associated Press. He was famously photographed in the immediate aftermath, badly burnt with his clothes shredded.

Story continues below.

The Malden, Mass., resident has undergone multiple surgeries at Massachusetts General Hospital, where he stayed for about two weeks, according to WCVB. He suffered burns and needed two nails pulled from his abdomen, ABC 7 reported. Then, he was transferred to Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital.

That's where he met a nurse named Krista D'Agostino. Fate took over from there.

"After sharing a handful of conversations I realized not only how beautiful she was but also what a kind heart she had," Costello wrote on Facebook, according to WCVB. "I somehow convinced her to attend a benefit with me, which turned into a few dates, which turned into a few inseparable months."

In December, eight months after the bombings, Costello proposed to D'Agostino in Lyon, France, WHDH reported. She said yes. The pair were on an all-expense paid "Heroes Cruise" with other survivors and first responders.

Afterwards, Costello posted a picture of the ring to Facebook, according to Boston Magazine, along with one, beautiful message:

"I now realize why I was involved in the tragedy. It was to meet my best friend and the love of my life."

Never heard of that one before. Is this a one-off or have there been other "Heroes Cruises" in the past?

Look at the way his shirt is hanging. I think I can tell where the nail went into his abdomen.

Adrenaline is one hell of a drug :). You'll be surprised what one is capable of when the stuff is pumped into your blood stream.

So are there no picture of this nurse to post? I want to know if I should be jealous or happy for him.

There's this really cool song by a band that I really like that I would love to share here, but because their music label has chosen to block all youtube posts of the official version of this song I will not be promoting that band here today. I have supported them in the past by attending an expensive show and convincing a friend to attend with me, so I have given more to that band than somebody who has bought two copies of all of their albums. By posting the song, they could have potentially increased their fan base and now they will not be.

good to see something good happened out of this trajedy. My brother, his wife, and his sister in law were there. His sister in law had finished the race just a few minutes prior to the explosion.

I thought jealous was synonymous with envy. Either way, I meant it in a way of me being resentful of his good fortune(in form of a foxy nurse). Now if it was my wife or girl friend, I will not be jealous but instead indignant on being cheated on :)

ENVIOUS/JEALOUS


Although these are often treated as synonyms, there is a difference. You are envious of what others have that you lack. Jealousy, on the other hand, involves wanting to hold on to what you do have. You can be jealous of your boyfriend’s attraction to other women, but you’re envious of your boyfriend’s CD collection.

Are you speaking of the bombing across from the library near the finsih line, you know the one the Boston paper tweeted about precisely one minute before it happened ?
