Day 128: Sometimes Words Just Don't Tell the Story...

The Make-A-Wish Foundation might be the best thing invented since sliced bread. Make-A-Wish grants the wishes of children diagnosed with life-threatening medical conditions—wishes that are believed to change the lives of the kids served. And every single wish will tug at your heart strings and make you reach for the nearest box of tissues.

And this wish is no different...

For me, it's the wishes granted by professional sports teams that I love the most. It's a group of grown, and often times burly men, treating an ill child like "one of the guys." Making this kid feel, if just for one amazing day, like he or she is the center of the universe and the most important person in the room.

It was no different for 8-year-old Jack Bolton. Jack, who suffers from spinal muscular atrophy and is confined to a wheelchair, wished to coach the Carolina Panthers for his day. But the Panthers took it to a level I don't think even young Jack was prepared for. From the short mock job interview, to the contract signing, to him being announced to the whole team as their honorary coach for the day... every part was a dream come true for Coach Bolton. And he even had a speech prepared for the team.

This kid is basically all kinds of awesome, and tissues are definitely required for this video...
