A kid I never met taught me something important today

My sister is a nurse at a St Jude's outpatient clinic. She posted this on Facebook:

..... after sticking the port of a little boy getting chemo today, I sent him to the treasure box to pick out a toy for himself. When he came back I noticed he was carrying a little beaded bracelet. He then walked over to me and said "Miss Kim, I decided to get this for you instead."

Wow. What an amazing kid. If he can be so great, I can try to be a better person.

Thats just awesome. Its really sad the things we complain about. Because usually there is someone right next door that has it so much worse. Thats a really cool story.

You don't know what I go through, I was forced to buy used games at Gamestop, you know how embarrassing that is?!?!!

Seriously though, that's an awesome story, wish that little man the best.

Children have an innate ability to care about other's feelings before their own... it's truly a shame that they grow out of that.

Yep. Children are truly honest with their feelings and thoughts. They are capable of amazing gestures of kindness (like we see here). But, they are brutally honest at other times.

It is truly gut wrenching to see and hear what these children go through at St Judes. Their strength and courage is amazing to me.

St Judes is my favorite charity.....and the one I give a lot to. The work they do for kids is incredible. I have known two families that needed their services. One of them lost their 9 month old to cancer....while the other has a 9 yo in remission. St Judes was a God Send to the families.

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By frankw · Posted

      Oh please with the wallowing in victimhood I'm going to take my ball and go home routine. You were just in here referring to people as super weird haters because they don't completely agree with your borderline delusional spin on what Bryce Young is and isn't as a fourth year starter. We can hope by some miracle that Bryce Young will actually be able to lead a formidable passing offense this season without being irrational homers and pretending verfiable data and what we have seen with our own two eyes doesn't tell us exactly what he has been to this point which is someone who moves the ball at a historically low rate.

      Vrabel and Russini? Athletic investigating.

      I am curious who's behind all of this though. A video and photos from years ago surfacing? Someone has a vendetta and is driving this PR campaign. I'm loving it, but I'd also like to know who said mystery figure is.

      I say positive things about Bryce when he earns them. Which he has a handful of times. It is all here and on the record but your lobby won’t focus on that or the flat out truth inside of our critical comments.  It is a constant thing with him and his backers - one or two good things and people are trying to extrapolate that to proof we should commit to him, while ignoring or making excuses for the larger portion of his track record.  When he is able to consistently turn in franchise QB extension worthy outings the tone of the posts will reflect that.  I have already said that if he would play like he did in the WC as often as we need him to, I would be okay with keeping him.  See you don’t want to talk about that though because it shows actual fair minded evaluation not stanning.
