People use the phrase "it's the thought that counts" but never truly understand it. When your disabled son says that he would like to have taken care of his father (in so many words), it's done. That gives a father all the courage he needs to move mountains. Obviously not all fathers are built like this one. So if you are lucky enough to have one, go tell him you appreciate his ass and hit him in the feels.

"One of the greatest love stories of all time" says it all! Dick never once took other people’s credit, where it belonged to the brothers or mother they got it. This isn’t the story of two men, it’s the story of a strong loving family who were decades ahead of thinking at that time. My wife and I both have acquired disabilities and met volunteering at the Disabled Peoples Organisation (DPO) where I now work in the UK. Prior to becoming disabled I’d spent many years working in the learning disability/mental health sector. Even in the U.K. I can see where this family and many others like them changed so much, I don’t even think DPOs would exist without them. When I married my first wife in 1983 we lived with her late cousin who had cerebral palsy, so much has changed since then. With disabilities America and Britain have advanced together and I thank Dick, Rick all the Hoyts and people like them from the bottom of my heart.

Thanks for the encouragement! When Darren was diagnosed with CP, the doctor told us that he would never be able to walk. But after these years of work, including a few surgeries and the SDR surgery performed in St. Louis Children’s by Dr. Park, he can use canes and some times even walk without the canes at home. These days he walks 2-3 hours per day using a walker and we are training for a 5k! As parent, one just needs to believe in the kid, have hope and put the time and effort in it.

We have done all we can so far, and this video makes me feel so empowerd to do even more . Even she is only 3yr old and that our road with her is barely starting; I deeply believe God has placed this story in our lives as a fountain of hope, love and courage.
