Rob Brydon shares autistic boy’s heart-breaking birthday wish

Rob Brydon took the time on social media platform Twitter to respond to a father’s plea to wish his son a happy birthday on Wednesday night (September 29).

Twitter user Kev Harrison ( @kevharrison_ ) revealed in a post that his son Daniel is autistic and doesn’t have any friends, and appealed to Twitter users to wish him a happy birthday.

Mr Harrison’s tweet, alongside a photograph of his son, read: “Daniel’s my son. Profoundly Autistic. Hasn’t one friend. It’s his birthday today. In his ECHP he wrote that his two wishes were to learn to drive and make friends. Please wish him a happy birthday. Please show him you care. Please share.”

The tweet also included a second image of Daniel’s education, health and care plan (below), in which the youngster had written his two wishes.

Daniel’s wishes included in his EHCP.

After several hours the tweet had gone ‘viral’ with over 40,000 responses within the first 24 hours. One of those respondents, happened to be Brydon, who quoted the tweet in a message of his own.

“Happy Birthday Daniel, I hope you have a wonderful day. Sending you lots of love X”, he wrote.
