Legends
Well I’d be a liar if I said I wasn’t somewhat upset.
I watched two programmes from Channel 4 today about two legendary people. One was called Alex, about a 16 year old named Alex Stobbs who suffers from Cystic Fibrosis yet who still managed to conduct one of Bach’s most challenging pieces of music. The other, The Boy Whose Skin Fell Off, was about Jonny Kennedy, a 36 year old with dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa a devastating disease whose sufferers blister at the slightest touch but who lived a full and rewarding life.
They lead by example and I only hope I can follow.
Legends both.

I’m a very shallow minded person so :). I’ll have to check out this 4OD lark, you never shut up about it. My copy of windows may be slightly questionable though.
I heard about both these programs, and I saw the ad for the one about the kid that conducts the Bach peice. It looked really interesting.
