The ONCE is receiving the Prince of Asturias Award to the concord, and that has been one of the most celebrated awards this year. The ONCE is very appreciated among Spaniards.

Sorry if I sound snippy, but it is a major pet peeve of not just me, but others in the Blind/Visually Impaired Community as well. That picture of Letitzia hugging that little girl is priceless. :)

So sorry Tiggersk, I didn´t know what was the correct word in English, that´s because I referred it that way 
Thanks for the correction, I will remember the correct name from now on.

Thank you for saying domething. I use a cane too, and hate when people call it 'a stick'. Many don't realize the importance of a cane yo somrine with a visual impairment; it's a way to be independent, as well, as a way to be identified when traveling. So, yes it's not just a stick. It's a very helpful tool.

There is a big difference between loving children and having great empathy with them and having them in the house 24/7.

Those kids with Max are precious, and look as if they won the lottery, and Catherine is Catherine with kids.
