Today's Blind Items - Kindness

So, this future Hall Of Famer has a celebrity girlfriend, but he still shows he has heart and compassion. A while back, there was a young boy who had cancer. Prognosis was not hopeless, but not great. Being that he was just shy of being a teenager the Make A Wish Foundation granted him his wish to meet the New York Yankees. He did. It was at Yankee stadium, before a game. The Make A Wish people were amazing. He was brought onto the field while the players were warming up for the game. He was told that the players knew why he was there and they would each come over, one by one, talk for a minute or two and pose for a picture. And they did. Our player though did a lot more then that. He stayed and talked for much more then a few minutes. And it wasn't the obligatory "hang in there kid" talk. It was real talk. Joking around, talking about music, movies, baseball etc.. cheerful things.. very authentic. The boy, who has recovered now still has the picture and nothing but love for our player.
