One month after he was born 14 years ago, Pajalich was diagnosed with infantile spasms syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that causes seizures. According to his grand- mother, Ann Gronski, the disorder left him developmentally equivalent to a six-month- old, meaning he requires complete care. The fact that he has lived 14 years, Gronski said, is a miracle in itself. ”Ethan had therapists coming to our home until he was about five years old,” she said. “He also went to the John Heinz Institute and had pool therapy at St. Joseph’s Center. He began having other health problems due to his disorder and has a suppressed immune system, so he can get sick very quickly. He is on oxygen 24/7 and has a feeding tube, which is now used only for medication. Ethan was also diagnosed with an intestinal pseudo obstruction and has a broviac, which is like a permanent IV through which he re- ceives his nourishment. He is not able to tolerate tube feeding. Because his broviac can get infected at times, Ethan has survived septic shock and being on full life support more than once. He also has a problem with his lungs. He has spent much time in the hospital over the years. He does not get therapy now, just the movement that he receives from the nurses and his family.” In order to help Pajalich’s sole caretak- ers, Gronski and his mother, Laura, trans- port him to appointments more easily, a fundraiser for a new handicapped-accessible van called “Ethan: A Ray of Hope” will be held this Sunday, July 19, from 1-5 p.m. at the Greenwood Hose Co., 3727 Birney Ave., Moosic.

Members of the Taylor-based SalonYou 12-and-under Amateur Softball As-sociation (ASA) team trudged off themain field at Fell Township on Tuesday,June 23, after its four-game tournamentrun had ended.Before the team could get away from

the complex, officials from the Valley Pe-tunia League, in which Salon You com-peted in during the spring, stopped someof the players and coaches from leavingbefore a brief ceremony that gave theplayers medals and a team trophy for itsthird-place finish in the 15-team ClassicTournament.Even before the players saw their first

pitch in the tournament, Salon You hadbeen through a solid season that left themon the brink of qualifying for the league’s10-team playoff tournament.In short, the team’s 8-4 record against

Southern Division foes would have quali-fied them for the playoffs, but a team thathad been penalized with losses for usingan ineligible player for several gameshad the penalty overturned by a vote ofthe league’s coaches after statistics werebrought up showing the player had mini-mal impact on the team.As a result, Salon You ended up in a

coin flip for the last spot, won the flip andopted to participate in the Classic, wherethey were top seed from the South and re-ceived a bye into the quarterfinals. Assis-tant coach Suzie Taylor felt confident theteam could contend for the title.“Our pitcher, Madison Aulisio, was

really starting to do well,” Taylor said.“When she’s on, we’re a pretty strongteam and she was doing well going intothe tournament so I thought we were go-ing to do well.”Salon You opened its tournament play

with a 5-2 win over Lane’s Cranes (Val-ley Area) behind Aulisio’s pitching, thenedged Lee Electric (Abington) in thequarterfinals, 5-4.

In the winners’ bracket final, Auli-sio had Salon You locked up in a score-less battle with nemesis Polizzi Insurance(Dunmore), but hit a pair of batters in thefourth inning. By league rules, pitcherswho hit two batters in one inning cannotpitch the rest of the inning and the entirefollowing inning.“She had not done that the whole

year,” Taylor said of Aulisio hitting twobatters in the same inning. “We put inour second pitcher, Angel Beaumont,who is a good pitcher but not as fastas Madison, and Moriah Murray (Dun-more’s pitcher) came up with the basesloaded and doubled.”Murray’s double secured Polizzi’s 3-0

victory, its second over Salon You thisseason, and went on to capture the tour-nament championship.“That was our best shot,” Taylor said.Salon You had little time to bounce

back in the rain-altered event, gettingright back on the field to play VNA Hos-pice (Carbondale) in the losers’ bracketfinal. On the original bracket, Salon Youwould not have played that game onthe same day, but rain had changed theschedule.“Madison had injured her hand batting

against Dunmore, and we were up 4-0, buther thumb had swollen up and we had totake her out in the fifth inning,” Taylorsaid. “Had the weather not pushed thetwo games together; there are a lot ofwhat-ifs.”Salon You fell to VNA, 7-4, but still

brought home medals for their efforts.“It’s so hard in a rec league, you have

all these things, injuries and vacations, soI think a third-place finish; we were verysatisfied,” Taylor said. “They got a nicelittle medal and they were very surprisedto get anything.”Although the team fell shy of coming

away with the title in the 15-team tourna-ment, Salon You can look back and re-member a highly successful season, with10 wins in their 16 games together.
