Missing Five Year Old Girl April Jones Has Cerebral Palsy
Abducting anyone is awful. Abducting any child is terrible. But abducting a disabled child? I have no words to describe the actions of the person responsible.
All I can say is that I have shared the shock of the whole UK at this case. I have shared the wish of the whole UK to find out exactly what has happened to April Jones. I share the hope of the whole UK that she will return, alive and well, to her family very soon.
I have Cerebral Palsy myself, as regular readers know. The discovery that April shares my disability only adds to the hope I have had since she went missing for her safe return.
I can’t help thinking back to what I was like as a 5 year old. How much I needed regular physiotherapy at that stage in my life. April’s godmother is absolutely right- she will be in great pain- and serious danger- if she is kept away from appropriate medication for too long. From one CP ‘child’ to another, my heart goes out to April.





Words cannot describe the evil act of abducting any child regardless of wether they are disabled.
