A little Inspiration for your Weekend

by Filed Under: Inspirational, Juvenile Arthritis, Special Needs Topics 1 Comment

A friend shared this video on Facebook yesterday and I just HAD to share it.

Children (and staff) at Children’s Hospital at Dartmouth-Hitchcock, aka CHAD,  located in Lebanon, N.H., made their own inspiring version of Katy Perry’s hit ROAR. They made the video for its annual CHaD HERO Half Marathon & Ripcord 5K, according to their Facebook page.

I personally thought of all the children I have worked with with various disabilities as I watched this video and how I have personally watched many of them, and their families ROAR.

It also made me think of all the children with Juvenile Arthritis like my daughter and how they are all ROARING through their disease.

Truly inspiring! Happy Friday to you all!
