Lee Do Hyun, you spoke for many of us out there. Thank you for your kind sincerity. Our family has a Downs Syndrome/Autistic brother who is 60 years old and is the joy of our family. It is my personal belief that special needs children/adults are a blessing that make us better people.
Congratulations on a well deserved award and again, thank you on behalf of so many with special needs family members.
