I didn't know if this has been posted yet, but I saw this family on the Today show this morning and wanted to share it with you all.
A father and son (the son is autistic) were lost at sea, treading water for many hours. The child is not very verbal, but the dad kept connected to him by shouting out his favorite lines from Disney movies---like "to infinity and beyond!". His son would shout back the slogan. This went on for many hours until they so far apart that the father could no longer hear the answer of his son.
Thankfully they were both rescued. What do you want to bet a trip to disney will be in their future?
