The Wind Beneath in His Wings

There is a great father named Dick who has a disabled child, Rick. Rick is not only able to run, walk, crawl but also speak. Luckily his parents take care of him greatly. They do everything to their son, either they accompany him when he was hospitalized or talk to kinds of specialized doctors. But the only thing Rick can do is to communicate with the other people by computer.

Rick sits in his wheelchair a whole life. In front of his face, there is a screen just like a keyboard and he needs touching it with his mouth to express his feelings.

By this wonderful stuff, Rick wanted to compete in running race and he asked his father to take him. His father, who had never run before, agreed to do it together. They had completed in triathlon after all. Rick was so happy so he made sounds that presented his happiness. His father really likes to hear his happiness sounds as he made it after finishing triathlon, as if the sounds of heaven.

Surprisingly, his father said that Rick had saved his life. By his recently condition he can hold on heart attack, otherwise he might die 15 years ago. He just lent Rick his legs. He stated that Rick was an athlete. Yes, Rick is an athlete. He never thought that his son is disabled person. In return, Rick said that his father is the wind that beneath in his wings.
