http://www.care2.com/causes/boy-with-cerebral-palsy-runs-inspiring-race-video.html Though spastic cerebral palsy makes running a major challenge for Matt, he opts to run in the Field Day at Colonial Hills Elementary School. Part way through the first lap, he loses steam. His gym teacher and best friend, Mr. Blaine, comes up to offer encouragement and stays with him through the rest of the race.
That would already be touching, but his fellow students do the same. First one, then a small group, then the whole gang of students surround him. They chant, “Let’s go, Matt, let’s go.” They clap... cheer, and together they encourage him across the finish line.
This is really sweet and awesome. I was smiling the whole way!
