Lean on me...

Have you seen the commercial out for the Sick Kids Hospitals?
I will be the first to admit that I don't do well with anything illness/hospital related, so I usually try to avert my attention away from these types of advertisements for fear of tears streaming down my face.

The other day I was caught off guard by these new commercials where kids, doctors, and parents are all doing different activities and singing "lean on me". I want to start by saying that this is the saddest/somewhat powerful commercial I have seen in a while, and yes I did cry when I saw it, the commercial also gives you that feeling of how lucky you are that most of us didn't spend our childhoods in and out of the hospital.

Pretty deep post after ranting about my evil friend the skunk, but I just saw the commercial again and while there were no real tears, the eyes were watery...

I am such a sap.
