It’s a little schmaltzy, but here’s a brief story about a young girl with cerebral palsy who is given a small part in a production of The Nutcracker. Actually, for a human interest story on a morning news program about a kid in a wheelchair, the schmaltz factor is pretty low. I’m also impressed that the dance company official interviewed for the story doesn’t seem self-congragulatory about including someone with a disability in the show. Instead, he emphasizes that dance should be an inclusive activity.

Thanks to Rose for the tip. Coming up with material for this blog every day would be much more of a chore if not for all the links my friends send me.

  1. Hey mark I am not sure if I ever told you but I got an email back from the mayor or that town in canada they came to a resolution for the family to keep the pony … they had to provide a shed and some sort of fencing and agree to keep the poo cleaned up but they got special consideration to keep it. I thought it was pretty cool that the MAYOR actually emailed me TWICE!
