Often the most gifted among us are overlooked while the spotlight shines on
many unworthy of our attention. Special needs children often never survive
the journey out of the womb. In many nations those that do survive are all
too often abandoned and institutionalied. Now nations are on the cusp of
legalising child euthanasia, so even the few who survive are not guaranteed
life. How can we ignore the plight of our most vulnerable citizens? How can
we allow these voiceless among us to be condemned to life sentences or
death simply because we don’t recognise their gifts? We all must stand and
confront this grave evil.
That how my big brother is he has special needs
Diagnosis: cerebral palsy and other health issues
Bryce Staverman was born without the part of the brain that controls his
gross and fine motor skills. He cannot walk or talk, but he can understand
much more than people might think. A family friend gave him an iPad for
Christmas last year, and he uses it to communicate, track his GPS location,
search for roller coasters and take his own videos. Watching him makes you
wonder about the mysteries of the mind. “No one ever asks for a child with
special needs,” says his mom, Kris. “But maybe they should, because what
they give you is they look at the world with happiness and joy — and they
give unconditional love.”
Wonderful, CC!
