Diego’s soccer coach organized a soccer scrimmage for August 23rd, only a few days before our Boston departure. This was the last game Diego will be able to participate in for a while. He played hard and thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it. Diego’s team won the game 2-1 against a tough group of girls. At the end of the game, Coach Britt presented Diego with a team jersey that had all his teammates’ signatures on it. As we walked off the field, Diego immediately decided that he was going to wear the jersey on the plane, both to and from Boston. I think it is wonderful that Diego recognized that this would be a meaningful way to feel the energy and support of his teammates at the beginning and when he returns home from his successful trip to Boston.
