A difficult topic done with heart and respect., 26 February 2008
10/10
Author: louie-65 from United States

To all those who think they know what it is like to have a child with a disability, or think they have all the answers I say "Make sure you say your prayers every day!" These are the types of situations that happen to anyone and everyone, without warning, and it changes your life. "Dandy Kids" takes a topic that is difficult to talk about, more difficult to get information about, even in the medical community, and brings it to the forefront with a very comprehensive look about the disease, its diagnosis, "treatment" (as it is), and the families.

WOW! If this one doesn't move you to want to know more and do something about it, you're probably not fogging a mirror.

Yes, its a documentary. Yes, it's done from a non-conventional way. But when was the last time you saw real people, speaking from their hearts about the most precious things in their lives, their kids, and doing whatever they can to let others know about what they go through and live with every day. It wasn't scripted, it wasn't flashy. It's not supposed to be. It is real. And it is REAL good.

See it, support it, and support the cause! I do. Oh yeah, and it WILL make you cry.
