Shirley and her son Anthony
This blog documents my attempts to acheive 2 goals: 1) To find the copyright owner of Shirley's book "A Kiss Through Glass" and preserve the amazing story it tells by getting it republished. 2) To establish enough facts about Shirley that I am able to write a book about this ladie's life....my first attempt at such an undertaking !.

Wow - read about this film in Shirley's book - but have never seen it. Where did you get hold of it?!
ReplyDeleteWould it be possible to correct the spelling of Anthony's disorder? It is Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome. The video has Aldrich spelled incorrectly.
ReplyDelete@Annonymous.Spelling corrected :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments.I trulyhope and pray that one day there will be a film made to tell this amazing story of this mothers fight to save her son. One day.......
such a brave little boy and couragous mother . both RIP
ReplyDeleteMy son had WAS and thankfully his life was saved by a selfless young man on the Anthony Nolan register. This story definitely needs telling, she was a wonderful strong determined and incitful woman. Anything I can do to help x
ReplyDeleteThank you for helping me understand this condition a little better. I join my friend in the fight for her son who has WAS, she too is a stong and determined woman who continuously amazes me, as is her son who continues his battle. To the WAS children everywhere, stay brave and as wonderful as you all are xxx
