Yeah, that's why I stopped watching it - I couldn't take it any longer.

Kat,
Janet and I talked about that, too (an AAC device) and figured he probably
already had one, but wasn't shown using it, to help him appear more
"deserving," or pitiful.

I watched part of this - but didn't see that he got an augmentive
communications device - did ABC give him one? I know the main focus
was on his mother and the Little League baseball team, but I did
think they should have thought of enabling him to communicate his
needs - after all, his mother isn't going to be around forever, as
cruel as that sounds.

Friends,
If you're anything like me, you're a fan of ABC's Extreme Makeover,
even if
you're teary when the show is done. I want to point out in August
the show
was in Minot North Dakota (about 4 hours from me) building a house for a
family who has a son with Cerebral Palsy, and the parents are
outstanding
people, the mother has even taken the time to organize a baseball
team for
kids with special needs. The episode will air tonight at 8est, I
don't know
about the west coast, you might check your listings.
Thanks,
Anthony
