Special Olympics

The big news is that my daughter is back in Special Olympics gymnastics. This was a bit problematic as she has a condition called horse shoe kidney. To sum it up she has one kidney which is lower in her body. If she ever falls on it, we need to rush her to the emergency room. So, she has a spotter, who will make sure she does not fall on her back. Sort of like if she has a ceramic statue in her back pocket and if it breaks my world ends.
Special Olympics is really great, and I highly recommend supporting them. I suppose my only quip is that in my area they seem better organized in the south end of town and seem to offer less in the central areas. The volunteers are the most dedicated and patient people I have met. It makes me think about the way people seem to need people and how helping each other makes life meaningful.
