July 24 from my journal
Roth, who is in his
seventies and has Parkinson’s disease told this story to our group. He is at
the pool and a young girl swims to the
ladder where he is standing.
"I thought because I am older and in my condition she
should let me come down first. But she grabs the ladder, lifts herself out of the water and swings by me into a
wheel chair. It is then I see she has no legs. And I am thinking I’m handicapped.” We all needed to hear Roth’s message.
