This is alot more than that though. The mental anguish this women has endured up until this point had to have been immense. I'm sure even if she had accepted his words would never come she was still clinging dearly to hope as to some day hear them. This is that moment. This is like an answered pray for lack of better phase. You can watch as that weight lifts of her as those 2 little words enter her ears. 

I can't imagine how cathartic that would feel. At this point your like at least 5 years out of knowing you child isn't speaking. It can't be easy to hold your hide high when dealing with that. Everytime I see this video as stoked as I am for little man. I'm very proud of this women despite not knowing her. The plight they endured had to have been so emotionally exhausting for her especially. Those 2 words suffice forever even if he never said another. I guess that is the definition of timeless. It's just so much more than that to me. It's very powerful the context of this video.
