Dolphin Tale
« on: October 24, 2011, 01:18:59 AM »
Anyone see this movie yet. I have been waiting for a chance to take my grandkids. For those who don't know it is a true story about a dolphin that got caught in a crab net and ended up losing its tail. And a prosthetic tail was made for it that allows it to swim again. It stars Morgan Freeman who plays Dr. Cameron McCarthy, the Prosthetist who designs the tail. In real life the prosthetists name is Kevin Carroll and he is a vice-president for Hanger Orthotics and Prostheticts (a red headed Irishman, so they used a little poetic license). I know Kevin very well since he consulted on my prosthetic leg that Hanger made for me, and he developed the liner used on me from research done on Winter, (the Dolphin's name). So I feel a kinship with Winter.

Great family movie!

Thank God you said that you were going to see it with your GRANDCHILDREN. My ultra-little cousin saw it, and she liked it. 

Otherwise I was going to have to ask you for your mancard.  ;)
