Guest guest Posted December 18, 2003 Report Share Posted December 18, 2003 Hi all I keep meaning to ask you guys this. Did anyone happen to catch the Hamilton biography? He's a famous skater who started off very small, at the age of 2 he was so small and was hardly eating that he had a feeding tube. He had the tube up to and including some grade school grades until he found out about skating. He was removed from the feeding tube once he was skating regularly (they implied he developed an excellent appetite then and looked so healthy). The problem was they never examined what caused him to be so small (at least on the biography) but made a huge deal out of it in relation to his stamina to challenge himself to the ends of the earth. But if you look at the pictures when he was a baby....wow....that big forehead/head stands out among other things. Anyone know anything about his life? I was dismayed in watching this show when they explained he had developed cancer, beat the cancer and now is heavily involved in fund raising on the cancer front. I was kind of put out because I thought " such a famous person, his fund raising could have helped growth disorders sooooo much more!!!!
