Well done, Tim. You, as well as other members of your wonderful family, truly possess the Irish gift for storytelling – authentic, touching, colorful and inspirational. Keep writing. Twenty years down the road Mitchell will get a kick out of your thoughts and observations.

Thank you all very much for your kind words. I was fortunate to have that experience. The words came easily, and I’m glad that I was able to share them here.

I’m a Mavs fan. Got to this article via dallasbasketball.com. It was very nice. I’m a single mom of a son who is now 23 yrs old. Got divorced when he was 11. We still spend a lot of time together. We are both huge Mavs fans and go to at least a few games per season together. It doesn’t matter if your son is 11 or 23, spending moments like this with them is special. I give thanks every single day for my Justin and this article just reminded me why I do. Like your son, my son is a very positive person. A glass half full type of guy. I’m very proud of him. We will be watching the game tonight…hoping to beat your Pacers. And you’ll probably be doing the same….hoping to beat us. Again..thanks for the article, thanks to dallasbasketball.com for the link. It reminded me how special our children are…no matter what their age.
Go Mavs!
