Go Spurs Go

Chris wrote today and was all pumped up about the Spurs winning against Phoenix and now playing Utah for the Western Conference Finals. He really misses being able to watch the games and enjoying the fun that we always have during the playoffs. He proudly displays his Spurs flag above his cot and has several Spurs shirts that he tries to wear the day the Spurs play. He has been getting game by game stats but it's just not the same. He sends a big GO SPURS GO!

As always, the email had a very upbeat and cheerful tone. Chris was doing good except that his air conditioner had gone out in his tent again. He said he finally got tired of tossing and turning and not being able to sleep because he was so hot that he went to his old buddies, the Assassins and camped out there and got a little rest.

It's amazing what a few short lines on an email can do for a person. I walked around the rest of the day with a smile on my face. If Chris can always be so upbeat and pleasant, even when it's 130 degrees in his tent and he's trying to sleep, I can smile and make the best of the situation too.
