This is the perfect story for the true meaning of Christmas ……. and how life really should be. It’s the tale of Brit gay couple Garry Ratcliffe an Executive HeadTeacher for two Primary Schools and his husband Kyle, from Sheppey, Kent who adopted four vulnerable children with severe medical needs. Haydn, 13, who has cerebral palsy; Bella, 11, who has Down’s Syndrome; Curtis, six, who is severely epileptic, blind and has cerebral palsy, and Bella’s sister Phoebe, six, who is physically healthy but suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder.
In their community Garry and Kyle are known as ‘superheroes’ and they and their family lived together in a cramped three-bedroom bungalow (ranch house) full to the brim of medical supplies and room for little else. That is until Nick Knowles and the team from the BBC TV Program DIY SOS came to their rescue by knocking down the tiny house and building a completely new five-bedroom home from scratch in just nine days – something they have never done before.
Watch the video and weep for joy at the happiness that this gives this unselfish gay couple who are such a joyous inspiration to us all.
