Clay Fite
5 yrs old

He was severely burned in a gasoline explosion on Valentine's Day. Clay's being home schooled for kindergarten. But today, therapists from Parkland Hospital in Dallas came to answer students' questions. They explained that even though Clay may not look the same now, he's still the same Clay they knew before.

Here is Clay's blog [link]

Oh, I see you are Esher's and Kabuki (Hokusai) student. Hokusai was one of my early role-models.

Kabuki is Japanese theater. Some of your work reminded me of their backgrounds (scenography).

Poor guy. The look on that woman's face, and all the kids either won't look at him or are gawking.

SublimeBudd In reply to KittyChick [2009-09-11 05:14:27 +0000 UTC]

the woman was talking very nicely of him
his bro was very concerned for him (on the left)

but it was a hard moment

KittyChick In reply to SublimeBudd [2009-09-11 15:54:15 +0000 UTC]

I guess you caught an awkward expression because she doesn't look very friendly to me - but we all know that's how all the "ugly celebrity" photos happen, just capturing a normal expression at the wrong time.

manfredkooistra In reply to SublimeBudd [2009-11-03 23:23:46 +0000 UTC]

Her face doesn't look weird to me at all. I see her as talking to kids and over-emphasizing her role a bit, as adults tend to do when they talk to kids. To me this is the moment when the kindergarten teacher talks to the kids while still looking at what she talks about and asks: "And how do you think ...?"

By the way, you can see from Cole's father's face how Cole is coping with the situation. Really a great capture!

You should put into the description that that's his brother, mother and father to the left.

He does. And he should be. They look like a great family to me, joyful, intelligent and loving.

adults always talk kinda down to children and have to perk themselves up with gestures and what not

I recognized them from the video. And you wrote something about the boy being his brother a few comments up from here.
