He knew he could play if he wanted too, but he choose not too., he chose to be angry with the world and allow his disability to take the best of him! Today he will become a new man and start by listening to the melody of the music played by others and he said to her" When we get home, I'll book a ticket to a piano concert" she look at him and smiled big, then said" That is a great idea, my love, I knew you will come to your senses one day' they also decided they will have a baby by this end of the year and travel to see the family and friends.
