Here's our story about our son, Daniel.

We feel so proud when we think about our son Daniel. Daniel is 7 and in grade 2 at Catholic School. Daniel is a very considerate and caring young boy. He loves having his friends over for a game of Wii.

Daniel has a younger brother, David. David is 4 and living with autism. Daniel loves his brother David is 4 and living with autism. Daniel loves his brother and has been so understanding when it comes to David. We don't always get to spend as much time with Daniel as we would like. We are busy with David’s needs...

Yet Daniel ,even at the tender age of 7 understands and helps however and when ever he can. It's a lot for a littlekid to go through but he's up for the challenge.

We love and applaud Daniel for being a great kid.We love and applaud Daniel for being a great kid.
