Re: This is a wonderful story that feeds my faith
I agree Ciel! Part of the reason I liked this so much was because it showed young people reaching out and doing something good--very rare, I think, with kids today!
Thanks for reading

It is so true I just had to keep the words travelling.

It's a lovely story. Too bad it's so rare that it becomes big news...
We had a kid with Downs Syndrome in our neighborhood. I never saw his equal when it came to pantomime, especially of a baseball game. Doctors told his parents to put him in an institution because his affliction was so profound, his mother left when he was two or three years old, there was no hope he'd ever function in society. But his dad would not give up, got the best education he could afford, made sure his son lived a life as "mainstream" and normal as he could find. The "kid" in his early 40s now, has a counter job at McDonald's, lives in his own apartment, and has a world of friends. And he still loves baseball.

I received this e-mail at work some time back. Usually I do not send them on as I am on my company pc, but this one I did.

This is a wonderful story that feeds my faith
that kids can see and honor need, that they can be as noble and altruistic as any adult. Perhaps it takes a leader to model such kindness, as the pitcher did, but the entire team being willing to follow his example--that is something, too!
