My niece had a twisted/knotted intestine while in the womb and was in GOSH for her first year or so. It affected her development and she's had trouble walking, too, and she would get really frustrated in the early days because her older siblings are wannabe gymnasts and always jumping/climbing over things, doing handstands and other stuff that needed coordination that she didn't possess. She was a late bloomer in a fair few ways but her character is impeccable. She's easily my favourite of all his kids and since she got her hearing aids we'd been having actual conversations about all sorts of random stuff.
Here in Japan working at the junior high school, the special needs kids are my favourites. These days I don't consider some kids normal and others special. All kids are normal to me, now. Just different kinds of normal.
