What would you do? You make the choice! Don't look for a punch line;
There isn't one! Read it anyway. My question to all of you is: Would
you have made the same choice?

Actually, story comes from a story by a Rabbi that appeared in
a book of his. The article on snopes:

http://www.snopes.com/glurge/chush.htm

gives the cite and then argues that this is not a good thing, that it
is "... bestow(ing) upon the disabled a pat on the head instead of
granting them acceptance for who they are, ..."

Interesting article.
