Kaitlin Is Going To The Taylor Swift Concert!

Thank you so much for everyone’s suggestions and help with trying to get Kaitlin access to ADA seating for the Taylor Swift show in Chicago. Shaun Hague, an up and coming musician, saw my video and was able to get Kaitlin two ADA seats to the Taylor Swift show on 8/9/11. The response to my efforts of helping my sister was heart-warming. People from all facets of my life, in combination with complete strangers, came forward with countless ideas to try to get tickets. THANK YOU!!!! It is wonderful to know that the world is still filled with compassionate people–though the news and headlines typically focus on tragedy and unfortunate events. I truly hope that Ticketmaster changes the way that ADA seats are sold, and I also hope that venues begin to require proof of disability to stop non-disabled people from taking up the limited ADA seats that venues have. Thank you again to everyone for your support. A HUGE thank you goes out to Shaun Hague, for going out on a limb and contacting Taylor’s management on Kaitlin’s behalf. And of course, thank you to Taylor Swift’s camp for stepping up and helping to get Kaitlin ADA seats to the Taylor Swift show on 8/9/11. Words cannot express both Kaitlin and my gratitude! :)

His is the story of a truly dedicated performer… willing to overcome all obstacles to depict something beautiful. Li Dongli first came into national eye performing at the 2010 Guangdong Asian Para Games Closing Ceremony—but before that he’d already spent the better part of a lifetime devoted to his passion for dance. The 35-year-old Liaoning native had his left leg incapacitated in a traffic accident when he was three-years-old. His first stage performance was in 1992, performing acrobatic circle drills. He insisted on choosing a height of about six feet—difficult for most non-disabled people. Yet Li prevailed, and from then on, he hasn’t looked back. Li’s daily training routine has for years involved difficult acrobatic moves and grueling training… such as biking with his only leg for six to twelve miles at a time, regardless of weather. He’s mastered challenging dances, and a host of acrobatic moves like somersaults. Yet he’s also led a full life—he’s a father of two, and since 2008 has directed his own performing group called “My Dream”. The group has more than 60 members; many disabled, but indomitable. Just like Li Dongli. [Li Dongli, Dance Group Leader]: “There’s one thought that stays with me: A man’s path through life tinned’t be planned by other people
