I've been a little depressed by the threads re ungrateful children and presents, so I thought I'd share this story. Today, my beautiful, clever, amazing nephew, who is 15.5 yrs with severe CP and no speech sent his first ever, unassisted email. We as a family clubbed together to buy him the keyboard and 'mouse' he needed.
The email took 35mins, and he sent it to my DH:
Dear Uncle [DH name]
Now I don't have to wait for Dbro/ Dad to rip you when Hotspurs lose!
Ha ha
D Nephew xx
DH has printed it out and says it is 'in a frame going in the office on Monday.' His English suffers when he's emotional, bless him!
