QRay on the Tennis Court

I want to share an incident that I viewed at a public tennis court in New York City. These courts get pretty crowded and require that players have a tennis permit issued by the city. I was waiting my turn with my tennis partner when I noticed a heated discussion between a part attendant and a woman in a wheelchair. The attendant was telling the woman that she could not bring her wheelchair on the court. His logic was that bicycles were not allowed on the courts and her chair had wheels like a bicycle. The woman argued that the wheels of her chair were rubber as were the soles of tennis shoes. Neither one would back off their positions and it seemed like they were at an impass. But then something happened. The woman was talking fast using her hands for emphasis and the attendant noticed that she was wearing a Qray bracelet. ‘You have a Qray” he said. “Look, I have one too!” “Yes,” she said, “I have arthritis and I think it helps.” “Me too, he said, ” and I know it works.” After that he smiled and let the woman in the wheelchair play tennis.Q
