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
