There's an ordinary Christmas belief embedded deep in a child's mind from a very young age, that if you sit on St Nicholas aka Santa's lap, all your wishes will be granted.
Turning the side of the picture, for some kids, this ordinary tradition might not be as straightforward to follow up as for the others. In a shopping mall, discovering a Santa makes the kids so excited that they
can't stay on their feet and that results in them creating a lot of disturbances by being noisy and too active.
The youngsters suffering from problems like autism etc. suffer from annoyance due to this chaos which we neglect or ignore while being too busy handling our over-excited kids, WSAZ News explains.
Tina Erwin- a mother of a boy who had down-syndrome, figured out that her son was suffering from a similar condition which resulted in her making a plan to give these special kids a chance to meet Santa one by one, so they can be a part of this tradition just as much as a normal child.
Who doesn't fantasize meeting with Santa? After all, he fulfills your deepest wishes! Erwin described the situation of her son by stating that sometimes he panicked only by seeing the tad too shiny and sparkly festive lights around him.
She was discovering new complications to the already severe disease. Erwin got her idea spreading quickly through websites like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. Her family at Rockwood Baptist Church conduct the special event for four years now. Which is unbelievably amazing.
Andrew Conley whose health problems started at an early age had suffered from some illnesses. He was fifteen years of age when he first sat on the Santa's lap. His health had been in trouble when he was just two weeks, and according to his parents, he also had a heart-transplant, which is as serious as it sounds.
His father told his excitement was worth seeing. The Santa gave advance presents to the kids, and everything at the special gathering was totally free of cost, not only the kids, but also the parents enjoyed the eve.
