At Primary Children’s Hospital, when a child is admitted to the PICU, his parents are given a short list of questions to answer about their child. The answers are then made into a fun poster that lets hospital staff get to know your child on a more personal level.
One of the questions asked is if your child has a nickname. It took Reed and I less than a second of contemplation before writing down “Brave Hero” for Parker.
Cause we tend to call ’em like we see them.
So, when I saw the name of The Littlest Heroes Project, I took notice.
The Littlest Heroes Project is a non-profit based organization made up of professional photographers nationwide that provide free photo sessions to our nations Littlest Heroes. This is their way of giving back and taking a stand for these children who sometimes feel forgotten because of their illnesses. We are here to let them know that they are heroes to many, and to share their inspirational stories and photos with the world.
If you have a child, or know a child, who suffers from any type of serious illness we are here to help. The Littlest Heroes Project provides you with a complimentary photo shoot for your hero and family. Please read the information on this site and be sure to contact us so we can help pair you up with a photographer from your area. The whole family … Super Sibs and the Brave Parents are welcome to participate in the session as well!
I was especially touched to read that Super Sibs were welcome to participate in the session as well. Cause sometimes those sibs can feel a bit left out and helpless.
So, go and take a minute…..or 30……… and read about this amazing volunteered, totally free program.
And then sign your Brave Hero up.
We did ours.
