What, are you tired of teaching?

Ok, it is absurd to place more significance on the suffering of 
someone who is a celebrity or the child of one than on that of the 
rest of us, and it's a misuse of the lug to solicit funds for 
someone's medical treatment.  OTOH it is not safe to assume that just 
because this guy once played in little feet he is set for life.  Also 
if you are a father having trouble raising funds to take care of your 
child's medical condition and someone offers to help for whatever 
reason you would probably be inclined to accept it rather than let 
your son pay for your pride with his suffering.
