90 years old/young

I visited a different church this morning for a dementia friends session and this young man, Adrian celebrated his 90th birthday with a lovely cake. He brought with him his son James who is sitting in the background. Adrian has quite severe special needs and when he was little got sent away to the New Forest to a Steiner school where all the children were taught to play the lyre as it worked to calm them down. James sat next to his 90 year old father to play Greensleeves from memory as part of the service. Very poignant.
