Today is Thanksgiving Day in the US, when families get together, eat turkey and reflect on what they are thankful for.
I'm thankful that when I called my mom, who has Alzheimer's Disease, I got her to stop crying by talking about my daughter Becca. Becca has Autism and cannot talk. When I spoke sadly about this, my mom stopped crying to remind me that Becca is a wonderful girl.
And Becca used her Assistive Communication Device to say "Turkey" without any prompting. Becca is a wonderful girl, and I have a wonderful mother.
Thanks, God!
