On Television, I watch either news or reality shows. Last night, on Canada day, there was an NBC program “America Got Talent”. It was run of the mill show until the end. There was this nine year old, David Militello, who is a charming little boy and who moved the audience in the hall. His mother and father were overcome with emotions as he sang.
You see, this little boy was diagnosed as autistic at the age of 3. He did not talk. According to his mother, the schoolbus driver found out that he sings all the time in the bus and that changed everything. Apparently he did appear on other shows as this story shows: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/01/25/assignment_america/main3753997.shtml
He is a fascinating little boy and he moves you the way he talks and sings.

LeDaro,Thank heaven some viewers appreciated what they were seeing and hearing. A truly remarkable and talented child who is overcoming a terrible disease. Those who choose to display their ignorance most likely are consummed with envy at their own lack of suucess of ability or that of their offspring. Blessyou and DAVID
ReplyDeleteThank you. I believe David has mostly overcome his disability. He will do exceptionally well. I will be watching rest of the episodes of 'America Got Talent' to see how David makes out.
ReplyDeleteMy best wishes and prayers for David.
