Caring for Each Other

148,166 views
Trenton and Lindsay Cochran are best friends, brother and sister, support and inspiration. 10-year old Lindsay, who suffers from Spinal Muscular Atrophy, has been in a wheelchair since she was 2. Trenton understands deeply that his life would have been very different if he didn't have a disabled younger sister.  Not only is this mature 12-year old a helper and protector, he is an advocate and ambassador for kids with disabilities. "I would take a bullet for her," he says, as his grateful sister looks on.  Warning: you might want to have some tissues on hand for this beautiful video.

Trenton is all heart. I cried when he did. What a `12 year old! (and, honestly, I was surprised by Lindsey's reaction to his tears--was she embarrassed? Or was this the 1st time she realized the depth of Trenton's devotion to her?) Thank you, once again Karmatube.

Well...it is very rare indeed to see such devotion and generosity of spirit. It feels as though he has come into this life for a specific purpose that is much bigger than his role or feelings for his sister. Remarkable to witness.
