No news is old news if one hasn't read it before. I hadn't. Thank you for the post.

Thanks for posting this. As a parent of 2 kids with special needs, I'm always in need of anything that restores my faith in humanity, and this week that story was it. In my opinion, everyone in this article was a hero.

I read this story during football season. It was big on the South Carolina football boards and even Rush featured this story.

As I mentioned, I heard it on Rush.
Everytime I read it, I get a lump in my throat.
Great uplifter.
