1. Asked me (after I woke up late on Saturday morning due to a bad cold) how I was feeling
2. Gingerly walked into my room on Sunday morning, left a piece of paper with a question "How does the cello look?" and with a smile told me it was ok for me to answer the question "later"
3. On Sunday evening, apologized for "rushing" me to increase the volume of music in the car, while expecting me to also apologize for taking the volume from 8 to 27 in my state of rush (frankly... I lost it... but what's amazing is he understood that based on my body language!)
4. As told to me by his volunteer friend today: Aditya said the following to him as soon as they met today: "Sorry we could not do the meeting on Friday"
(By the way, we really had to cancel that meeting on Friday for unforeseen reasons, and that Aditya took that in the stride without making a big deal about it was a huge feat in itself!)
There were some other moments where Aditya did express his frustration quite vocally that he was having a hard time always saying things he wanted to, and never the opposite. We told him it was okay, and that he was trying so hard... that's what really mattered.
Overall, a terrific performance from him!
