The Disability Preso

In Diversity class today there was a group presentation on Disabilities.  It was an interesting presentation with a number of moving videos.  One was a girl who has MS and runs track.  As she runs her body heats up, as bodies do when running, the heat causes certain reactions in her body and pretty soon she has no feeling in her legs.  She just keeps running.  At the end of the race her coach is there to catch her because as soon as she stops running she completely lacks the ability to stand.  It is really an amazing thing.  I quite enjoyed the entire presentation and learned a lot.  Naturally when Tourettes Syndrome was mentioned my thoughts went to Bob Wiley in What About Bob and in my head I'm saying "Shiz eating douche bag, numb nuts, twat..."  Not that this is what Tourettes really is exactly but it is a childhood memory from a classic movie.  Anyway, it is good to learn, and it is also good to go to sleep.  Oh, I think I will partake in some of that goodness.
