To be honest, I wasn’t  a hug Colin fan, but after reading this interview, he has won me over.

People is reporting that Colin Farrell has revealed that his 4-year-old son James suffers from a rare neuro-genetic disorder called Angelman Syndrome – but that he’s a brave and happy child.

“The only time I’m reminded that there is something different about him – that he has some deviation of what is perceived to be normal – is when I see him with other 4-year-olds. Then I go, ‘Oh yeah,’ and it comes back to me,” Farrell tells the Irish Independent. “But from day one I felt that he’s the way he’s meant to be.” and adds that his son is very courageous and “[I'm] incredibly blessed to have him in my life.”

“He took his first steps about six weeks ago, and it was four years in the making,” Farrell says. “It was incredibly emotional. There wasn’t a dry eye in the house.”

I’m sure that was wonderful to see your son walk after 4 years! I got tears in my eyes just reading this story!
