Surprise!!

Surprises can happen in many forms....and this one just shows that very often we can surprise others by being able to do things they probably didn't think we can. Heartwarming story in a way.....

Wonderful story!

It truly is a touching story!

I was glad to see it again. It's another 'Rudy' story.

Just goes to prove you can't ever underestimate someone.

Don't you know that those few minutes changed this kid's life dramatically!! Got to hand it to the coach for giving the kid a shot.

GREAT story!

Joana--

wow--this story has criss-crossed the globe! Greece, NY, is about 1 1/2 hours from me, and we saw and heard this for days on end. But---you gotta love it!

I got tears again!!

Thanks so much, Joana!

I'd seen it on the news, but that link provided a video clip which was much more extensive than what I'd seen previously.

I have tears rolling down my face right now........ Happy tears.
