Merry Christmas from Cadanino: Team Zecapa and CRPN

Just starting the idea of Personalizing Gifts for kids. This is a mix
of both Fundaninos and CRPN.  Every other photo is a kid with special needs. The
Boys in front of the Christmas Tree are orphans at Fundaninos and instead of a boy scout
troop we call ourselves, "Team Zecapa"  for lack of a better identitity.
We try to get out for a ride in the countryside or eat ice cream in town from time to time.
This trip included nine kids and me in a tiny Suzuki Marutti (one of the smallest vehicles available).
The photo of the larger group is an excursion of the special kids at CRPN to the city
center Christmas Tree. Send me a note if you have interest in participating. I hope to evolve this
project and make it more user friendly. For now, this is the first draft or strawman
or what the project can ultimately be!!  Contact me at

Where is Telemachus when you need him??

Basically our Hero yells ¨Stop Stop enough already¨  Though he is martyred with an immediate brutish death, society is nearly instantly transformed and the barbaric actions that he is protesting are ended. Are there areas of our lives that we need to speak up and against now??  I think so

Various Versions of what Saint Telemachus accomplished

¨^The Story As Often Told

   Here is a brief summary of the story as it is usually told:

       In the fourth century a little monk named Telemachus from Asia (modern day Turkey comprises the Roman province of Asia; or perhaps Asia Minor is meant), was led by an inner voice to go to Rome without knowing why.  He followed the crowds to the Coliseum.  Two gladiators were fighting, and Telemachus tried to get between them to stop them, shouting three times, "In the name of Christ, forbear!" Telemachus was killed by being run through with the sword of one of the gladiators.  When the crowd saw the little monk lying dead in a pool of blood, they fell silent, leaving the stadium, one by one.  Because of Telemachus' death, three days later, the Emperor by decree ended the Games.

 And More 

Who was Telemachus?

Telemachus was a brave, elderly monk who went to the Roman Colosseum in 404 A.D. to observe the gladiatorial Games in its splendor. Upon witnessing the gruesome spectacle of men slaughtering other men for the pleasure of the crowd, Telemachus scaled over the wall onto the Colosseum floor to stand in between two combatants. He shouted three times: “In the name of Christ, forbear!” The gladiators separated but the crowd stood up and stoned Telemachus to death because he had interrupted their entertainment for the afternoon.

Once they recognized what they had done to the elderly man, the crowd became quiet and slowly filed out of the stadium in silence.

When the good emperor Honorius heard of the heroism of Telemachus, he put an end to the gladiatorial games forever and Telemachus was designated as a saint for his heroic stance for humanity and truth.

Lionel joins the TEAM!! New Psychologist

Great guy just started with us at CRPN. Many years of experience with kids of all types.

His enthusiasm is wonderful and we all benefit.

Our New Psycologist - Lionel

New Blood and new revived enthusiasm!!

Back to Guate...

  Arrived at Center and was pleasantly surprised that Anahi is almost walking!!  The reality is more that she can balance herself in an upright position if she has something to hold onto. In April her achilles tendons were operated making walking an eventual possibility.   Ingrid was aloof with my arrival, but cheered up and was quite happy when I paid attention to her.
Bless and protect each special kid here and elsewhere.

Cadanino Founder Delayed in States

  Just a note to let you know that I am staying a few extra days in the USA as my Mother is in failing health.

"Mom is resting comfortably in my Brother's Speculator home.  She travelled to New York City and back in the past two weeks. She had hoped to stay in her apartment , but was hospitalized shortly after arriving by ambulance in NY. After a week in the hospital they recommended that she go to Hospice care and we decided that Speculator would be a better place to receive this type of care. 

The combination of two five hour travel ordeals, a week in the hospital and difficulty with pain management has left her weakened and very disoriented. Thankfully the pain has been alleviated. It appears that her decline continues at a fairly rapid pace and that she will soon go to be with the Lord.  Everybody is being really terrific and pitching in to help. "
