Child With Leukemia Invited on Court to Play With Utah Jazz

YouTube Link

This footage shows five-year-old JP Gibson, who suffers from acute lymphoblastic leukemia, making his best basketball moves on the court with the Utah Jazz. The adorable Gibson, who was diagnosed in 2012, is announced as a substitution before he dribbles his way down the court and makes a basket, with an assist by one of the Jazz. That's enough to bring tears to my eyes as I smile simultaneously.

Brings me back to kindergarten. Had a friend named Louie who had leukemia and didn't last the year. I can't imagine the pain of any parent in such a situation. I hope they treasure every second they have with their son.
