Shannon's Response to Youssif

Oh my goodness, I just watched that video, as well as read and watched every other video about him on that site. I can not believe anyone would light a five year old boy on fire. I can not even begin to imagine the difficulty this must be for him to understand, as well as for his family to cope with this. I saw his before and after pictures and they seriously made me want to cry, he was such a cute little boy. I hope his surgery can do wonders for him, I can't imagine the amount of ridicule he will get otherwise. I think it's amazing that they are doing everything they can for him, because people are harsh and he's already had to experience that at much too young of an age. He's already encountered a child crying after seeing his face, and he's gone through so much he doesn't need people staring at him on top of it.I wish him the best of luck and strongly encourage all of you to read about his story.
