Whole city helps little kid's wish come true

This really got to me. There are some very fine people in the world still.

"Make-A-Wish to turn San Francisco into Gotham for Batkid. A young boy fighting leukemia will get his wish to be Batkid, and the citizens of San Francisco are being called upon to help."

Thanks for posting that. Sometimes we need a reminder that most people are pretty okay.

That really was awesome.

There was also a certain amount of risk involved, but it seems to have turned out great in every way. Plenty of 5-year-olds I know would have dissolved in tears at some point on that extended excursion, but this kid seems to have been a good sport throughout, even though the whole thing was apparently kept a surprise for him.

And, his leukemia is in remission, so he has at least a chance of being able to look back on this even years from now, as an amazing fun experience. Man, I really hope so.
