Just a little chuckle for your mid-day.
“Life has been extremely difficult for 7-year-old Aaron Burkhart ever since he was diagnosed with a brain tumor five months ago. To make matters worse, Aaron’s family lacked health insurance and was soon unable to pay the medical bills for his expensive treatments. Things seemed bleak, but that’s when Aaron got the surprise of a lifetime. When Sen. Mitch McConnell heard that Aaron’s family could no longer afford the treatment for his brain tumor, he visited Aaron’s hospital room dressed as Batman and wheeled him out of the hospital…
Seriously, could Mitch McConnell get any more incredible? Even after he had pushed Aaron’s wheelchair out in front of the hospital, McConnell stayed in character as the Dark Knight in order to make the experience as special as possible for the young cancer patient from beginning to end. Aaron’s mom and dad say that before he left, McConnell got down on one knee, placed a gloved hand on Aaron’s shoulder, and said, “Batman needs you to stay away from the hospital until you can pay for your own medicine. If you try to come back before then, the Joker will win.”
Next week, Same Bat Time, Same Bat Channel, McConnell shoves your grams out of the Safeway!
