I love this video, these little kids fight so hard everyday to survive. I am so thankful for all the work that St.Jude does to help keep them as healthy as possible and able to fight cancer longer. Please consider during this holiday season donating money, time, or food to those that desperately need it. The holidays are a great time to do something wonderful for someone else.

Words cannot describe the immense sadness and immense hope this video gives me. It is so upsetting to see children in the world being treated like this and robbed of their childhood, it literally makes me sick. To be honest until a few days ago, I wasn’t aware of the full gravity of this situation in Africa. However, now that I do know I will try my best to make my friends, family, and followers more aware of this devastating issue. Please, please watch this video and share it to help spread awareness.

To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.

Definitely teaching these to my kids when I have them one day!
