Skatergirl

We got up at 4 am yesterday to take daughter C to the statewide skating competition. She took up figure skating last year as a therapy to combat her reflex neurovascular dystrophy, and has gotten completely caught up in the sport. For her father and I, seeing her out on the ice, moving without agonizing pain, is worth any sacrifice we can make

Way to go and all the best for the nationals! Tell her I'll be on the lookout for you guys if/when she starts competing internationally -- we often have events in my home town!

That's incredible! I'm so happy for her (and you). Just knowing what she's overcome to do all of that must mean so much to you!
