I heard on Ron Callan’s broadcast that one or both of Kat’s folks have moved up to Corvallis to be nearby during the remainder of the season and for her rehab. Did anyone else catch that?

Actually I would like to know as well. If true, it indicates remarkable parental dedication.

The PAC 12 Network announcers mentioned that last night in one of those rare moments (about 27 minutes out of 40) when they were talking about something other than the basketball game unfolding before their eyes.

Let me count some of the ways: 1. it pertains to a high profile player who many of us on this board follow; 2. the program prides itself in family and family stories - this is one of them.
3. this is a human interest item of interest to some less so to others... 4. the anecdote tells us a little about sports injury and a little about family allegiance....
Get the drift???

And that is relevant -- how? Because it helps illustrate how one of our top players will rehab from her injury. It's extremely tough to get around while living off campus if you can't drive and will be on crutches for at least the next month or so. You can't just park anywhere on campus, even with a handicap permit. You still need a permit for the lot where the handicap spot is located. My guess is, she has a "C" (Valley Center) permit and that's quite a ways away from the classrooms. So she'll need help getting closer to classrooms; walking on crutches in the rain is a miserable thing. If you've ever had this, or any other kind of debilitating surgery, you'd know its tough to get up and around your house to make meals, to get dressed, etc., for some time after surgery. Something as simple as putting on socks and tying your shoes can be a chore if you're not fully mobil. And I suppose she's also concerned mentally, and wondering about her future as an athlete after sustaining a pretty serious injury. ACL rehab is tough work. Having a parent around in a support role can't hurt. You never appreciate the Americans With Disabilities Act until you're the one with the disability, even if it's temporary. |

"You still need a permit for the lot where the handicap spot is located." Not true. If you have a placard, you can park in any crip space on campus. The reason for that is because, in wet weather, and depending on the distance, the preference is for crips to drive from class to class. Rather than walk around campus, she could hop (no pun intended) on the free shuttle that runs the circuit through campus -- I believe every ten minutes.

I use a wheelchair and am thoroughly familiar with how that campus has ignored federal accessibility standards. And I've had eleven orthopedic surgeries. |

And that is relevant -- how? How is your idiotic response relevant? Well, I wanted you to understand it. So I wrote down to your level. |

As a competitive athlete, coping with being a crip, even short term, will be tough enough without us getting a play-by-play. |

Kat seems to get around just fine whenever I have seen her cheer leading on the bench. No crutches or braces that are visible. I think she's just been faking it.  |

The reason for that is because, in wet weather, and depending on the distance, the preference is for crips to drive from class to class.Not so. ADA Parking Options Individuals with a DMV-issued ADA placard have several parking options available on the OSU Corvallis campus. Permits are required Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. in all ADA spaces on campus.
ADA parking spaces - Vehicles may park in any ADA accessible space on the Corvallis campus with a DMV-issued ADA parking placard and any valid OSU parking permit. Permits can be purchased online, in our office or at any pay station. transportation.oregonstate.edu/parking/parking-permits/ada-parkingThe shuttle is OK. But most of the stops, including Valley/Reser, do not have covered waiting areas.

Seriously, parents being parents in the best possible way, and it becomes more than a "thank you" thread?
