This text provides a take on life from the perspective of a child who has no sight and no speech and who uses a wheelchair because of physical disabilities. It offers a glimpse into the thoughts of such a child, recognizing that family and support workers sometimes get things right and sometimes don't, and provides some explanations for the puzzling behaviour often encountered when working with children who are dependent on others for the ordinary aspects of daily life.
