A certain number of people never miss a football game. When you wear a Cal shirt and walk down the street, people all over yell,  Go Berkeley! It s great to be a part of that. Coach McKeever adds,  Natalie embodies what this university is about. <br>Coughlin has a full plate: on top of her full-time studies, she is committed to a rigorous training schedule that consumes up to five hours of her day (including plyometrics, pull-ups and heavy weight training exercises such as full squats  an individualized, high-tech program developed by Mary Dempsey, a strength coach at Cal). During her free time, however, she likes to surf, cook and do photography. And, every Wednesday, she goes home to Concord to have a family dinner with her father, Jim, a police sergeant; her mother, Zennie, a paralegal; and her younger sister, Megan. <br>It might seem ironic that a swimmer of Coughlin s caliber is so grounded, but then, maybe it s a large part of her power. She knows, and the world knows, that she has the potential to become the best woman swimmer ever, but she doesn t let the pressure drag her down. Coughlin s firm grip on reality is balanced by an equally buoyant spirit. As she told USA Today reporter Jill Lieber,  If it all ended tomorrow, it d be sad, but I could cope. I ll be a success in life, no matter what. <br>With Coughlin s positive outlook, success is a given. As a swimmer, she has many more miles ahead before she reaches her potential, but as far as maturity goes, Natalie Coughlin has arrived.about our acquaintance. I will always remember looking down at your son Craig in his crib when I stayed in your home. I was overcome and lifted by the Holy Spirit. <br>You see, at this same time I also had a son who was just a baby in a crib. My son, Mark, was healthy. Steve s son was born without eyes or an esophagus. In addition, Craig s brain was not fully functional nor would it ever be normal. It was suggested that Craig be placed under institutional care where he wasn t expected to live very long. Some even hinted at just letting little Craig pass on. However, to Steve and his wife Carol, their son was special and God s gift to them. Craig would be raised at home and be greatly loved. I was filled with emotion and gratitude for two things: First, for my son being healthy and second, for Steve s wonderful example. <br>On the recommendations of Dr. Charley Howell, Craig went through several operations and survived. Recently, Coach Brooks gave me an update and sent me a photo of his son. Craig will be 17 this June; my son Mark will turn 17 in July. Craig can hold hands with his dad and walk around the track. He smiles and can even say a few words. Steve credits his wife Carol as the one who has made Craig s life what it is today.  She has done all of the hard work, he said.  Craig s special ed teacher April has also been a true miracle worker. <br>As I looked at the photo and pondered over life s bigger picture, I reflected upon the importance of gratitude and families.<br>I finished my letter to Steve:  I know that in the afterlife Craig s body and mind will be restored. I know he will thank you for being the father that you are. Families are a forever thing. Later, Steve called me and told me he has the same feelings. <br>It s a good time now to remember our families and treasure them. Time to take a fe
