That is so great!!! And just the other day I attended a workshop about autism. It just goes to show that the human spirit can be an amazing thing.

They just had a big article on that this morning in the St. Cloud Times -that is SOOO cool that the coach let him go out there. Now if only he couldv'e gotten out there sooner in his High School, but in the end he got his 15 minutes of fame, as well as a dream come true of playing Varsity Basketball, and more than earned his time there.
