Lessons from a Psychologist and Granddad
http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5361784

Psychologist and family therapist Dr. Dan Gottlieb's new book Letters to Sam is a collection of lessons on life he wrote to his grandson. Two decades ago, Gottlieb became a quadriplegic in an automobile accident. His grandson is autistic, and the letters have lessons about what it's like to be different.

Very moving and very inspiring. :smile: :approve:

That reminds me of the movie murderball. If you haven't seen it, I recommend it. It's a documentary about paraplegic people who play a sport called murderball -> it's kinda like basketball, but not. It's very touching.
