Yes, it hurts when a problem changes our lives but after seeing the video and knowing how some autistic children react to things, yes it is not his fault, the disabled have rights, but not at the expense of others. When the plane landed in the Hudson and all got out, I wondered how me, in a wheel chair,could have gotten out. DH would try to carry me no doubt but would we both get caught in the waters? A touching love story of commitment and sacrifice but there'd be 2 kids without parents left behind or maybe they might be lost in their attempts to save Mom. My but do need to consider things. Like Melody says, 2 year olds are tough anyway on a plane. I take cruises, like anyone hopes there's no hurricane or earthquakes causing huge waves, but go knowing odds are with me. Tm not going (though I'd like to), on an Alaskan cruise, sure Alaskan ports and wilderness are not wheelchair friendly. I'll stick to the Caribbean with easy access shopping and bars.
