I couldn't help myself but want to print inspiring story here in my blog.
The story really hit me, amazed and touched my hearts - Jason McElwain, 5-foot-6 a 17-year-old senior at Greece Athena High School in Rochester, New York drew a national attention - the story began two weeks ago on February 16.
Jason McElwain said he doesn't care what people think about him - he is his own person. That is because he is autistic. He was team manager of varsity basketball team for three years. He usually sits on his basketball team's bench all the time, keep the stats, run the clock and as a waterboy. Until his coach gave a heart to Jason to play in final four minutes remaining in the final game of the season - it was his first and only appearance.
He hit six 3-point shots and a 2-pointer, finished with 20 points in final four minutes! It might sound like impossible for autistic kid have even done before, a gift from God that way he did it.
I have watched this video for dozen times... Unbelievable. "His triumph was captured on a student video that made the rounds of the television networks. The school was besieged with calls and emails, and the parents recieved inquiries from 25 productions companies including Disney and Warner Bros."
Again as I say four minutes of fame, wow. He's now Hollywood kid.
