Earlier this month,Taro Kai Archives one caring dad launched a worldwide search on Twitter for a particular sippy cup that has not been produced in 10 years.
Marc Carter, 42, a dad and full-time caretaker for three children located in Devon, England, said the sippy cup is the only thing his 14-year-old autistic son Ben will drink out of, and his only one was falling apart. Without the cup, according to Carter, Ben would not drink, and he could get severely dehydrated and ill.
After receiving dozens of cups from kindhearted folks all over the world, the cup's original manufacturer, Tommee Tippee, dug up their old manufacturing plans and are going to make a special batch of 500 cups just for Ben.

"I need to share some exciting news that in no way I can write down in few enough words that would fit on a note I could share on Twitter...it's not gonna happen," Carter said.
He then explained that after scouring their records, Tommee Tippee managed to find the mold that makes Ben's blue cup. The company offered to make Ben as many cups as he needs for the rest of his life. Carter is extremely grateful to have 500 new cups on the way.
Carter has been transitioning Ben on to using the dozens of new cups people who saw his tweet have mailed in. It has been a struggle to get Ben to use the cups, since they are newer and slightly different than his old one. However, he feels positive that he will eventually be able to convince Ben to drink from the new cups.

Even though the project of finding a #CupForBen is coming to a close, Carter does not want the conversation to end.
"When you've met a child of autism, you've met one child of autism," he said in the video. "You do not know every child, you do not know my son. And that's the same for everyone out there who's got a child with autism, who's got a child with a disability. They know best. These parents and carers are experts for their child. We've started some really cool, interesting discussions...I'm trying to move the conversation to autism and being a carer."
