A Miracle Child: a physical awakening from cerebral palsy

[@FawadZakai]

I’m borne with CP. and I’ve accomplished many many great things in my life which I’m very proud of.

[@jeankinder9872]

Congratulations Aidan and your Mother. My son was special needs and at six months old I was told that he would never walk or talk. By age 10 he started to do a few things his two older sisters and I work with him all the time, now going on 36 years old he walks and talks. He plays drums and bass guitar and I find myself asking him for help on my computer and have to hide all tools from him as he wants to take everything apart to see how it works. From the time he was six months old up until our last visit from our Doctor that comes to our home to check on him still want me to put him in a home but now since I have had a stroke and suffer from seizures he is now the one that helps me get up off the floor when I fall.

[@thecoollilgirl8226]

I AM 11 and I was born with cerebral palsy as well I only learned how to walk when I was 3 and I luckily grew out of it I kept on trying to walk and roll over and crawl and I just kept on trying until I walked and crawled an tolled over I know that I am very very very lucky that I grew out of it so I am basically just like him but my arms and legs are always sore and hurting and they have been since I was 4 but I am still trying until I succeed in what I want to and I will NEVER GIVE UP

[@cacampbell3654]

Your determination, and willingness to accept pain, are great strengths in my opinion! I'm so sorry you are confronted by such daunting challenges. Thank you for being as and who you are. How you face life helps me face my difficulties too. 👍🌟👏😍🎆💃🎈

[@grannieannie1371]

As a childcare worker I have cared for a lot of children with disabilities. And this mum is so spot on ten steps can make a huge difference to someone's quality of life. The ability to direct your own body makes such a huge difference. Kudos to Aiden's incredible mum. She and he are truly amazing.

[@lovepeace4635]

this mother is a hero , and this an example to mothers with special needs kids . God Bless this mom and her child, and all special kids in this world. never give up, my son is autistic , when he was 4 years old , the Director of the Special Education in my town told me, you will never have a conversation with your child. in that moment I wanted to cry, but inside me I thought you not God, u don't know. now , my son is doing great , we talk a lot . I rescued a dog and helped my son a lot.

[@smolbean9672]

The way Aiden manages to smile and enjoy life so much is just so inspirational. This gives no right to complain 'bout my life. God bless him and all the other beautiful kids like him.

[@natashawilliams2913]

I also have a son born with cp he's about to turn three years old I'm proud of you as a mother you are a blessing. My son name is Ricardo. Thanks for sharing your life with us,

[@Jackie-rc6cj]

Not a dry eye in the house watching this. Tears of pure joy for Aiden and his family. Inspirational documentary. Loved it.

[@moonchild8733]

Absolutely amazing. There are so many families around the world that could and would benefit from this treatment.

[@bethanyrash4118]

My brother learned to walk after our church did a huge prayer group for him he was never supposed to walk or make it to even 1 year. He is now 22.

[@Lindseyjones6422]

So wonderful to hear that !! God is still in the healing business!!!!

[@ramiroherrera-oe4fm]

I was born with hemiplegic Cerebral Palsy on my left side. I worked hard to be able to work a full-time job for decades. I am married with 5 kids. Life is hard, but I am grateful to God that I was able to accomplish many things, that seemed out of reach when I was a child.

[@winonabannon7953]

They are calling this a miracle, but really it is more than that! This video shows that it is not magic or something that instantly happened that this young boy is overcoming some of his disabilities, but with hard work, persistence, and undying love of this family, and the wonderful dedicated people who have taught them that they can achieve some basic independence for this child. It makes my heart sing to see how it is possible for a brain damaged child to be able to make achievements that some people thought could never happen. This video will bring so many families hope that they can make this happen for their child. Go team Aidan, go!!

[@rebeccamccready1135]

Winona Bannon definitely I love this channel because it amazing how they can help people who can’t walk and I care with people who got a disability and special needs I got a disability my self and my dream is to coach people with special needs and disability in sports to give to the community for family’s who got kids with a disability and special needs 😎

[@mspinkytee]

This is a miracle.

[@tracigill9365]

My son is a miracle as well. He is 38 yrs old and has cerebral palsy. He was more profound as an infant and although he had therapy almost immediately, they did not have the knowledge this incredible film displays . He became severely ill about 18 yrs ago and was on life support for over 4 months,. After 21 chest tubes and only weighing 32 lbs on his 18 birthday he survived. He has a trach and is tube fed but is a very happy tiny man. I watch this film and wonder what it would have been for him if this therapy was known. This plus the use of computer help in schooling seems sooo wonderful for CP and other conditions. TY so much for this film. He has always been with me at home and will remain so as his siblings will take over when I cannot care for him.

[@martyrchucker]

You're the miracle your son deserves xxx

[@letinhsong8024]

I love how happy he is! I think that, much more than "caregiving" your own child (who WOULDN"T do that?!?) is the measure that shows her good parenting. Bless this whole family, and all their many helpers.

[@bethanyrash4118]

I have a brother similar to this he's 22. He has been threw so much and still manages to laugh and enjoy himself. He gives me strength I didn't even know I had.

[@mariaparker7545]

What a beautiful child, what beautiful people, what a beautiful documentary.. I am in Awe, so humbling..

[@ElsaVille]

I'm moved beyond words, Wow. Every human involved here is awesome beyond belief. I stumbled across this doco feeling extremely low and hopeless about life. By the end of it - well it's impossible to grimly hold on to feeling that when there's such beauty, kindness, guts and glory like this going on in the world. It's a life-changing film on many different ways. Thanks and congratulations to all involved (including the musicians) and especially to Aidan the Lion-hearted! 🙋👍🌟

[@trevormiles5852]

Yes, you are right. We can learn from him. Just like his wrists was brought back, so must our sense of hopelessness be exercised back to inner strong self . Lets take joy and appreciation in our little successes. I too learned a lot here Padmafrench

[@bicsmith4899]

What a profound, inspiring story. Congratulations to Aidan, his mum, sister and all the amazing caring people who have helped along the way.

[@beverlyltrujillo2307]

My sister is a special education teacher and has been for 45 years. She told me she knew at 8 years old she wanted to work with handicapped children. She has so much love to give and healthy people dont want her love and help. She said she needs the kids as much as they need her.

[@margretherasmussen4279]

What a bright young man and a inspiration for all of us. Adults helping children getting stronger is powerful.

[@TammyRose751]

Amazing. It is wonderful that children like Aidan with the proper help can be helped. To see the smile and excitement on his face is wonderful to see. I want to thank the wonderful people who give all their time and work to help these children.

[@sherrybentz3224]

The key to the person/child's strength & perseverance is the hands-on (touch therapy) approach combined with a positive & fun attitude. The therapists, with unconditional love & acceptance of the person/child as a human being with a unique personality & purpose encourages & inspires the mind & body to reach & "think outside the box".

[@internationaldirector2917]

God bless of those team dedicated to this cause. Hats off.

[@shelleynobleart]

Did I tell you when I first watched this documentary years ago I was moved, of course, by every frame. Your works and methods are extraordinary. An hour after watching it I found myself beginning the familiar movements of my classical ballet class, something I've done 46 of my 57 years, but that morning I was completely overcome by the sheer miracle of being able to move. The gestures I'd come to take for granted being able to perform, the focus I'd held on perfecting the lines of my arms and legs became flooded with tears at the awareness of how incredibly precious the mind/body motor ability is. Thank you for your profound work with children and adults, assisting them with enormous patience, to unwind their capabilities and to grow as nature will have it.

[@AdaptedSpiralPraxis]

Thank you Shelley for sharing your beautiful words. We started out as dancers as well and it's really the love of movement that's given us direction with the kids and adults. I'm happy that you can feel that love in this film and that you feel it in your own body :)

[@lory5142]

Such beautiful people devoted to Aiden's joy. God bless each of you and thank you for sharing Aiden's joy with all of us.

[@Estiallina]

This is amazing! I have worked with kids and adults like this. It's intensive work. Kudos to this mom for not giving up, to the dancers, and to Aiden!

[@susanwarner8901]

Aidan is a wonderful example to what anyone with disabilities are shouting .... Familiarity Breeds acceptance .... and with the right care, love and support people can reach a well deserved quality of life! Way to go team Aidan, you are all an inspirational merit to show the world what is possible!

[@brendaeicher7453]

As an adult with Cerebral Palsy I want to applaud you all for your Hard work and dedication with Aiden! God bless you always❤️

[@susankenneally4618]

This was astounding to watch, it was amazing to see the flexibility return to his limbs and for him to be able to walk unaided in water at the end. Well done to the people who developed this type of somatic healing and to his mothers perseverance.

[@MsMesem]

Surely children like this should be working in small therapeutic pools everyday.

[@pathway777]

In this life everyone of us at some point, will need someone to help us. Just think about this and go and help someone or just give a smile. Thank you for this film. It is one of the best I have seen.

[@laineyfabriccio5984]

as a parent with a severely disabled child it's hard and heart breaking at time's but the rewards are incredible, I know of two carers who deserve that award, shame it's not recognised in England, home carers are treated as if they don't count, despite all the hard work they do every day without a word of complaint.

[@evelynbinion2168]

Years of work pays off mom! I know your love for this boy!

[@TheLuckyman1999]

I have Cerebral Palsy and with loving adoptive parents I graduated from college found a loving wife and I now have a daughter who is a straight A honor student I am so glad I wasn't aborted don't tell me there is no God or miracles I am one and so is this precious child!

[@RusheT07]

Jon Reeves is it still affecting you?

[@mbh2mt2d]

Well done, Aiden! Well done Momma, and everyone, but well done Momma for never giving up!

[@samban67]

As a special ed teacher of students I wish we could do this with our students. He was so excited to learn while he was physically active. So many more connections can be made. And I can tell you that the video only showed a tiny snippet of what his mother had to do in order to make all of that progress possible. The amount of behind the scenes work is amazing and takes a strong positive person to do it!

[@gorgeous3325]

Such determination and joy! Nothing could be purer.

[@lauriemarshall9572]

Wow.. God bless this family. Before retirement I worked for the disabled through a "not for profit" organization. Mom deserves a huge atta-girl. Her home need's to be renovated in order to accommodate her sons need's.

[@malyahmoore8790]

Thank you Aidan!! I just this morning asked through prayer for motivation to change my sedentary and diminished physical capacity...and here you ARE!! You have inspired ME! God Bless You!! You Are Loved!!

[@dinao4018]

[@MalloryDotson]

Wow! Beautiful and brave and strong young boy. With such a wonderful mother and a great group of people supporting and encouraging him. This is truly all a miracle and proof of what kind and beautiful people they all are.

[@Daystar311]

Such a beautiful boy! He seems to always have a smile on his face, even in the face of obstacles. Bless those who help kids like him and a special blessing for his mom. Hope he continues to get stronger each day!

[@tammysalazar3929]

I know wht shes going thru. But my special needs bby passed 8yr ago he was 14. Its hard but very rewarding 2c wht these kids can do and accomplish..such a beautiful little boy. His mom has all my respect

[@debbabbit9283]

Tammy Salazar ☺️ A thousand hugs. Tammy, you are continuing to be a champion mommy. I see how you are giving support and encouragement when you're still walking through the hardest phase of motherhood. The abundant love and grace of our God seems to have poured out enough for all in your circle of circumstances and on out here to many more like even me. There's got to be a special place in Heaven for mommies who were interrupted while raising their handicapped children. When you go up there you will have the most wonderful fun together!

[@azchanna]

I'm sorry to hear that dear

[@madcat1949]

What a wonderful mother! Aiden is doing great.So much work.We love and appreciate you two and our in our prayers!

[@JakeMissy-cr4oj]

Thank you to the care givers. Incredible. Determined. Loving.

[@juanalanders3782]

This was a very inspiring documentary. I admire all who assist Aden on this journey. God bless him and his mother. Excellent job Aden with your beautiful smile.

[@biscuits2572]

The love in the heart of the mother is what made his happiness and progress possible. May the Lord bless her and may Adrian be healed.

[@oliviaklozov1960]

AIDAN IS TRULY A REMARKABLE CHILD! BUT MOM, YOU ARE AN ANGEL THAT GOD SENT HIM BECAUSE HE KNEW YOU WOULD BE ABLE TO HANDLE THE JOB TAKING CARE OF AND LOVING THIS BOY! I AM LITERALLY IN TEARS OF JOY WATCHING THIS! YOU ARE A REMARKABLE MOTHER AS WELL AS THE OTHER CARE GIVERS IN HIS DEVELOPMENT. I DIDN'T WANT THIS VIDEO TO END. I WANTED MORE AND I HOPE YOU POST MORE OF HIS PROGRESS AS TIME GOES BY. I GUESS YOU COULD SAY I'M LIKE DALE IN A WAY ONLY I DON'T HAVE THE MONETARY MEANS TO HELP AS I AM DISABLED MYSELF AND IT'S VERY EXPENSIVE AS YOU KNOW YOURSELF. BUT YOU ARE AWE INSPIRING . I'M SO PROUD OF YOU AND THE WORK YOU HAVE DONE WITH BOTH AIDAN AND YOUR DAUGHTER. I'M HAPPY THAT SHE HAS HER BROTHER TO PLAY WITH. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AND WITH YOUR LOVE HE WILL DO NOTHING BUT CONTINUE TO THRIVE AS A YOUNG MAN. I KNOW YOU HAVE YOUR HANDS FULL BUT IF YOU CAN KEEP ALL OF US POSTED AND MAYBE DO A LITTLE VIDEO ON HIS GROWTH,( FROM THE COMMENTS BELOW I KNOW WE WOULD ALL ENJOY THAT SO MUCH.) SO I'M WRAPPING MY ARMS AROUND THE 3 OF YOU WITH A BIG HUG!! GOD BLESS!!

[@lougf3812]

This moved me to tears and had us all captivated. The sheer energy and focus of these adults, their love and dedication...incredible! Aidan, your strength and courage has just begun to shine, there is so much more to come. Your joy and love for life is contagious, thank you young man, your story is inspiring and beautiful!

[@poppykok5]

"A Miracle Child" is one of the best documentaries of its kind I've ever seen...So poignant...So full of hope...So full of a Mother's true loving spirit for her disabled son...My heart is very touched...I hope Aidan is living his best Life this following year of 2018 & that his airplane pilot friend is well...What a dear DEAR man...Hugs from Ohio

[@DonnaPavlik]

May God Bless Aiden & his family. And may Aiden continue to accomplish the goals needed to be as independent as he can.

[@prodigaleve4580]

I just love Aiden. His spirt and love of life shine through. You are truly insperational . God bless you.

[@janetfisher7200]

I am so happy he has a dedicated Mother.. She loves her son.. He loves his mother.. I am sitting here with tears of joy.. Love you Aiden...

[@secretofsinging]

I, too, am moved beyond speech, as I wept !!! How beautiful all the people are in this documentary..the dancers (!!!).....but...ESPECIALLY THE MOTHER AND AIDEN !!!!! Without her strength, love and COURAGE...it would not have evolved as it has. Bravo to all. I watched this because I am drawn to examples of extreme courage and strength. I teach voice (opera) and vocal rehabilitation..but am even more interested in voice rehabilitation....which actually changes their perspective on their lives. The caring and love is palpable in Dale Carter !!

[@georgettewood8894]

Well said from anyone who commented. Beautiful mother. Little sister a real little diamond. Continued healthy daily living. Hugs to everyone including that most beautiful man ( pilot ).

[@rhodadonavan6399]

Dear Aidan and Family (All of you): My name is Rhoda. In 2001 I was admitted to a nursing home to die, as a young woman who at age 24 became "Totally and Completely Disabled by Legal and Medical Standpoints." With each diagnosis the max life expectancy given me was 4 years. It was less than that when I entered the facility. There, I was Completely dependent on others for feeding, bathing, grooming, dressing, toileting, Etc., for Over 10 years. In 2013, I got OUT. In 2017 I began to rely less on wheelchair. I'm still in the "beginning stages" of full healing. Still legally blind, still have impalpable muscle in much if not most of my body. Yet, today, I am living alone, needing help w food prep, & reg bathing, grooming, dressing. Yet, I've bn learning guitar, writing again... Please, Keep Going and Never Give Up. Love Who You Are Just As Well as Who Each Other Is... Beautiful, and Literally Limitless! You Are In My Prayers! Prayer n well wishes hv bn proven to help people n plants prayed for, wished well. You Are All Miracles: THE SKY IS NO LIMIT!!! AMEN.

[@sherrylowery5518]

that is such a gutsy and inspiring choice you have made for yourself. You are an inspiration to others and you have a story that needs to heard by anyone who has been living their life according to a diagnosis that gave them an expiration date. You are a gift to so many people that really need to hear your message of hope and courage. God Bless you, Sherry Lowery

[@moniques2316]

[@lvteachme973]

Rhoda! You are amazing! God Bless You. I am so grateful that you didn't give up. I believe that a person has to get to the point of "no more". You and millions of others have proven doctor's prognosis wrong. Enjoy life and your independence.

[@indiracamotim2858]

Rhoda Donovan, you are awesome ! You make me proud to be a human being and be going through this physical experience that we have been gifted with. You are my reason for being grateful, every single day ! Hats off to you, Honey. Be blessed !

[@sanderdegroot6628]

What an inspiring film I've just been watching:-D !! Aiden, Mom, Janet, Dale, the dancers, the helpers, the Studio, everyone who contributed to make this happen & all the others I forget or don't know to mention: THANK YOU:-D "Choose life" says the tattoo on my arm - you are realising that so profoundly. I can only feel pity for the 117 'dislikers' and wondering how sad/bad there lives must feel for themselves. But most of all I feel joy (big time...) for this wonderful boy. Truly a Miracle Child. So thanks again! Bye from Sander from Amsterdam, the Netherlands xxx

[@NotThatKindaKaren]

What Sander de Groot said... Absolutely beautiful & important film. Love IS the answer to almost every question.

[@NotThatKindaKaren]

I cannot imagine watching this & giving it a thumbs down. Do they not realize how beautiful thing this is? The strength of the Mom alone is worthy of a thumbs up! For Aiden, if I could, I'd give you a million thumbs up!!

[@cherilynut]

When I looked at the number of 'Thumbs-Down' on this page, it was a bit upsetting to me. There's nothing.... not one single thing that's wrong or in any way negative. I understand that everybody has their own opinions and feelings but COME ON.....! RANT OVER! ANYHOO.... THANK YOU for sharing this touching, and very personal glimpse into Aidan's everyday life. I'm amazed how much progress his of motor skills from his perseverance, persistence and motivation to move. I am curious to know if Aidan would benefit from daily spending time in a Hyperbaric chamber, where he'd receive Rich, Pure Oxygen. This is GREAT & I strongly recommend for Children who have Autism, Brain Trauma or really ANYTHING.... it doesn't hurt to try. BLESSINGS, LOVE & LIGHT AIDAN~

[@peteraddison8323]

good post 10/10

[@adelaidemarie]

Cheri Gibson Trujillo that’s odd, two people who look at the ratings. Does the rating determine whether you watch the story or not? People do different things for different reasons. Personally I gave a thumbs up as I imagine many others have done as well. The ones that turned the thumb down.........? Maybe they don’t like.........have no idea but I imagine they did have a reason. Is it just a few? Or a lot?

[@lvteachme973]

Right! What is it to dislike? I don't understand people. Sometimes it's just better not to say/express anything if it's not positive.

[@DeniseHedberg66]

What a wonderful kid!! His smile is contagious !! He is an inspiration to many I am SURE!!! Love to see a new video of him!!

[@luminalsaturn2]

Aww! Aiden does everything with this adorable, wide-open grin! Such a happy boy!

[@laurenchatman714]

This little boy has joy in him.

[@AmyKrugerDKCCB]

Great job Aiden. I am so proud of you. You have come so far. You are a true inspiration Aiden and you never gave up, just like my husband. My husband has cerebral palsy too and he is fully independant, but I still have to do his exercises with his feet, ankles, knee's and hips. The doctor's said he would not be able to walk after 25 years old and he is 38 now and still walking on his own.

[@kennethbubser9601]

God bless everyone of the kids facing challenges. Bless the families who face the challenge of raising a handicap child . Being strong committed to making the best for their child. Thankyou

[@sharazod989]

Thank you Aidan for your uplifting spirit. I love how you struggle and do things. You are a prize. The people who work with you are angles. They should be as proud as Aidan. Mom you are great and what an understanding sister.

My ex could not handle that.. My other slder son has his own family and 2 children of his own, our grandchildren.. Today the yougest is almost 32 years, i managed to bring him up ad home till 18 years and then he got a place (little group poeple like him with helpers) but every 2the weekend he comes home and as long as we can shower and clothing him we wil try to do it.. He knows who and what and is a very happy and nice person.. and his brains develop.. but he will never stand..sit .. walk by his own.. had several operation nessesairy for painless live.. I'm almost 60.. and hope i can handle his man-like body.. for years and offer him the weekends to stau in his own bed ad our house.... and i work 5 days and the other week 4 days myself, so it still absorbs all energie.. he constandly needs my attention.. so.. i still absorbing a little strenght of you movie.. I'm remarried and my husband helps me where i need him.. and that is much more help than my ex did..

I've always used the old saying "Where there's a will, there's a way". It keeps me motivated to go forward when it's easier to just sit and go nowhere. I'm so extremely awed with those that opened the will in Aiden to find his way. This has been a beautiful story to experience. Thank you so much for sharing!

An amazing story. And Aiden... what a beautiful child. And his family and helpers. Wow. This is so inspirational, and beautifully made. This is the first time I’ve heard of Somatic healing and the Spiral Movement Center. I’m so interested in this.

[@lvteachme973]

Yes, and doctor's of conventional medicine should be referring patients whom they are no longer able to help to alternative treatments such as Somatic Praxis. It is so wrong that physicians basically send their patients home to curl up in a corner and to die even. Some Hippocratic Oath.

[@jill552]

What a special child and a special mom. God bless you both and your dear daughter.

[@janetfisher7200]

But Carl, this lil guy is not just lying in bed waiting to die.. his parents are doing something about it. This was such an inspirational story.. It was captivating.. To think years ago, they did just that.. Lay in bed waiting to die.. My partners stepson has C P and now also diagnosed with MS . He gets all around.. I didn't say it was easy, but what is easy.. He gets around with crutches, cane and alot of the time he used nothing.. No it isn't easy, but he wants life.. He has a beautiful outlook on life and he is willing to try anything.. And smart.. This guy is so darn smart. And he doesn't sit idley around waiting for it to come to him. He goes and gets it.. What an inspiration this video is. And the stepson, what an inspiration you are to all of us... Keep up the good work Aiden and also our stepson.. Love you both....God is with you...By the way Carl, you don't just let someone die because they are not perfect.. Get real!.. What a GREAT story.. A true Inspiration..

[@elrico1364]

I am awestruck by those many angels who work with the kids. Such immense love and devotion. Surrendering themselves entirely to assist and hopefully enabled them to succeed. Without that dedicated staff there would be no progress. God bless them endlessly.

[@bbyf443]

Fantastic story....amazing patient loving women, he responded so much to that thanku for sharing . Praise to the Most High!

[@lvteachme973]

It's a blessing to have such a therapy available to persons conventional medicine has given up on. I cried tears of joy throughout the entire video. It felt good just to see how happy Aiden became whenever he had an accomplishment. He has a very dedicated mother and that makes a huge difference in a child's life particularly if the child has a disability. Lastly, I want to see medical providers of conventional medicine start to provide referrals to alternative treatment options early on in a person's diagnosis. The goal should be to assist a patient in becoming well-live the highest quality of life as possible. And if that means providing information about treatment other than conventional medicine that has been successful, then, physicians ought to be willing to share the information and provide necessary referrals.

[@debbiewbd2359]

This is an amazing story and the therapists are an amazing gift to the people they help but I do feel bad for Carina because as the mom admitted she has less time for her daughter and I know that Aiden requires a lot of one on one care. I can't imagine how hard it is for the mom to do everything all by herself with no help from the father, she's very strong and brave. Keep up the great job Aiden!

[@judithnewing123]

What a gorgeous man. Wonderful seeing Aidan stand too. The women working with him are angels. His mother a saint. Dear little sister needs quality time I would imagine. Aidan’s progress is incredible. Thanks of course to his lov8ng mother for her tireless efforts. Sad for his birth father not being able to part of the family or play a vital role in Aidens rehabilitation. I hope maybe one day he will feel strong enough to help his son and support his ex wife. She was not responsible for Aidens birth injury.

I loved this video ! What an inspiration ! I took care of many handicapped children before I retired from nursing. I grew to see how many were trapped in their bodies , and were very intelligent when given a chance.Aidan's mother was also very inspiring as she kept her child inspite of the challenges to include abandonment by her spouse and her daily responsibllities as a caregiver.

Thank you for sharing Aiden’s story. Such a courageous little boy, mother and therapist. I’ll always remember this.

[@terriehumphries6028]

This is an inspiring story. We all work hard to see that our special children have the best quality of life.

Congratulations to Aidans mother for helping him and not giving up.

So moving! The courage and tenacity of this little boy, his delight in each milestone passed, his refusal to be discouraged - his evident joy in every interaction, and his appreciation of the little goals set up for him by his indefatiguable helpers and his family. He is a true inspiration, a living testimony to 'never say never' - and the faith invested in him by his mother - and the wonderful radiant light shining from him that communicates itself to all those around him. Thank you so much for compiling this video and telling Aidan's story 0 there was a saint Aidan - if reincarnation is real, then I canimagine that he would be that saint, come to show us the simple truth of the saying 'Don't give up, God helps those who help themselves, and if you walk one step towards Him, He will walk a hundred towards you'. How lucky was Aidan to have the input, care and dedication of his helpers - if only more children could be helped in this way.
