Petry returned to the base Tuesday, a week after President Obama awarded him the Medal of Honor. Petry was given the medal after saving the lives of fellow Army Rangers in 2008 in Afghanistan when, after being wounded by gunfire in both legs, he grabbed a grenade thrown by enemy combatants and lost his hand when he grabbed it and tried to throw it aside.

Setelah aku jatuh di kamar mandi pada 5 Juli 2011 sehingga tangan kananku jadi kaku dan ngilu selama beberapa hari, muncul tanggapan dari presiden Obama serta Rio Ferdinand bersama Nemanja Vidic melalui beberapa kegiatan yang pada foto seperti merupakan respon kepada soal aku jatuh maupun soal tangan kananku.
Pada 12 Juli 2011 atau sekitar satu minggu setelah aku jatuh, presiden Obama memberikan Medal Of Honor kepada US Army Sgt. First Class Leroy Arthur Petry yang menggunakan tangan buatan setelah kehilangan tangan kanan dalam perang di Afghanistan. Kejadian yang menyebabkan dia kehilangan tangan kanan itu adalah pada 26 Mei 2008 ketika ada granat jatuh dekat dua orang rekan dia dalam suatu pertempuran di Afghanistan. Meskipun dia sendiri baru terjatuh akibat tertembak di kaki, namun dia sempatkan ambil granat aktif itu dan dilempar. Tapi belum sempat terlempar, granat itu meledak di tangan. Meskipun harus kehilangan tangan kanan namun dia telah menyelamatkan nyawa dua rekan sesama prajurit.
Peristiwa itu tidak menyurutkan semangat Leroy Arthur Petry untuk tetap berdinas di militer, dan tahun 2010 yang lalu dia bahkan menjalani penugasan ke delapan kembali di Afghanistan.
Ini merupakan penghargaan yang jarang terjadi dan baru dua kali diberikan kepada prajurit yang masih hidup dalam perang di Irak-Afghanistan. Penghargaan pertama diberikan kepada Staff Sgt. Salvatore Giunta atas jasa dalam pengejaran Taliban tahun 2007.
Insiden granat seperti itu mengingatkan pada peristiwa Cikini 30 November 1957, pukul 20.55 ketika presiden Soekarno berkunjung ke perguruan Cikini dan dilempari granat. Saat itu pengawal presiden Soekarno menyelamatkan beliau dengan menjadi tameng terhadap granat itu.
Pada 15 Juli 2011 ada pula foto oleh Reuters yang cuma menunjukkan tangan kanan presiden Obama saat memberikan konperensi pers di Brady Press Briefing Room di White House terkait soal krisis hutang AS.
Kemudian pada 22 Juli 2011 saat duduk berbicara dalam menerima kunjungan PM John Key dari New Zealand, ada foto ketika presiden Obama mengangkat tangan kanan disaksikan oleh PM John Key. Nama belakang PM John Key seperti bahasa Inggris “key” yang berarti kunci. Sehingga seperti terkait soal letusan gunung Lokon yang aku tulis pada surat “Tidak Datang 4 Juli 2011, Lalu KH Zainudin MZ Wafat Dan Aku Jatuh Di Kamar Mandi Dan Letusan Lantai Gunung Lokon” dimana aku sebut bahwa nama gunung Lokon itu seperti berarti “lock on”, kunci kehidupan.
Urutan kejadian pada foto presiden Obama itu seperti isyarat bahwa kalau kita menunda pembicaraan serius mengenai soal kita maka aku akan kurang berfungsi secara optimal bagi kemanfaatan terhadap umat manusia.
Maka itu aku pikir setelah beberapa bencana besar yang muncul setiap kita akan berpisah, lebih baik kita segera menikah saja. Meskipun dengan resiko kita akan diperolok-olok karena keadaanku yang serba pas-pasan ini, tapi itu resiko yang lebih baik dibanding resiko lain berupa kemunculan bencana-bencana besar lagi yang mengakibatkan korban ratusan ribu orang tewas. Apalagi kalau ini memang merupakan tugas dari Allah SWT untuk kebaikan umat manusia, maka kalau kita malah takut diperolok-olok oleh sesama manusia, tentu kita cuma akan mengecewakan Allah SWT.
Selain presiden Obama juga ada respon dari Rio Ferdinand mengenai soal aku jatuh itu. Setelah pada akhir Juni 2011 sempat datang ke Jakarta tanpa tim Manchester United lain ikut serta, kemudian sesudah aku jatuh pada 5 Juli 2011 maka pada 19 Juli 2011 Rio Ferdinand bersama Nemanja Vidic berada di atas menara Space Needle di kota Seattle.
Menara Space Needle di kota Seattle itu berada tidak jauh dari kantor baru Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Sedangkan tempat tinggal Bill Gates yang berada di kawasan Medina Seattle agak lebih jauh sedikit.
Keberadaan Rio Ferdinand di puncak menara Space Needle di kota Seattle bersama Nemanja Vidic yang nama dia memuat “man” seperti namaku Firman, menjadi seperti mengingatkan aku agar naik ke atas menghadap Allah dalam keadaan sebagai suami kamu, aku ketemu ajal untuk kebaikan umat manusia. Agar dengan demikian aku dapat berfungsi lebih optimal untuk bermanfaat bagi umat manusia.
