We lost our daughter at age 20. My wife insisted we donate all we could of Jill's body, so others received her eyes, liver, one kidney, some skin. It was surely the right thing to do for us...
I'm very sorry for your loss, but you two are awesome people. Many people don't donate to people who are in desperate need of organs! You potentially saved so many people's lives. May jill rest in piece 💖
+Randall Kelley I'm sure it was hard but at least, other people can have a more joyful life thanks to her (and you who took the decision) and that's a beautiful gift, God bless you!
''Some of my classmates don't mean to say mean things to me, but it just slips out. Everybody has their own way of thinking things.'' Every adult nowadays needs to hear this. Everyone who's insulted by other peoples rightful opinions, everyone who cares what other people stand for or what their opinions are. Just choose not to care and live your own life. Don't try to fix others, you just can't. And this sentence comes out of a childs mouth, if he can think like that, so can adults.
I’m actually crying rn , not because I feel sorry for him but because he’s such a strong and wise little boy. Why do people with REAL struggles always have a better attitude then people who are beyond blessed? Greatful then most adults I know.
"And if these hands get messed up..I dont care because I have my family" this is what being humble and loved by your family is supposed to be like. Mom is raising a great kid. **someone is cutting onions damnit**
This kid is my neighbor in Baltimore MD, he is a really good kid! He can play basketball very good he plays with my nephews! I always see him and give glory to God
Lotts of Love to this kid and his mother from India.... This kid is just amazing and so is his mother... Gave her kidney to make her child live. Real sacrifice . Hope God will always give him everything he deserves....
Seeing that other childs hands broke my heart. Being a mother, I couldnt imagine how difficult it would be to loose a child, let alone give parts of my baby away.
grand e I was just thinking of being in the donor family’s perspective and although it would be a very tough topic and decision you’d have to think to yourself that your son/daughter can bring joy to another family and that your child can change a life forever
@@karbaona I totally agree. And in a way your child will live on with this young man. They might become a surgeon, or maybe an artist. They might become president. Who knows? But we do know that a part of that child will always be there, where-ever this young man goes. May he do good and may the donor rest in peace. May they also have a smile on his face when they watch from heaven as a part of them goes all the places they never got a chance to. May a part of them be able to share in the journey they made possible.
How can people dislike this vid, I mean like literally how? This is the worlds most sweetest boy and I am losing faith in humanity just beacause of those people 😭😢😫
"Everybody has their own way of thinking about things" "I think some people don't mean to be mean when they say it, it just slips out." Forget the surgery, forget the "inspiration" This kid is insanely intelligent. Clearly has a level of self awareness most don't have throughout their entire lives.
I know right, that's the first thing I noticed. All of that exposure to high caliber medical personnel on the daily looks as if it has definitely played the part.
"My grandmother says I'm smarter than a lot of grown ups" Even just the sentence formation, his ideas, this child is so smart..and yes, Zion lol you ARE smarter than a lot of grown ups. Clearly intelligence runs in the family :) Such a beautiful boy.. I'm so proud of him. The fact that he realizes and understands that the kids don't mean to be rude or hurtful, most kids don't see that...I think he must have a great support system from mom/dad. Because this kid is just amazing..
Unfortunately,, a life has to be lost in order for organs or body parts to be obtained. God bless the family that lost their child, but had the biggest heart in giving another child a chance at a "normal" life. As for Zion, you are more mature than your years and you are an amazing and courageous boy!
My dad worked on this transplant by organizing and planning the treatment, but he worked from home. My dad when to Philly (other side of America) and saw him. He says he was the sweetest kid, and was EXTREMELY thankful. God bless him.
To see those tiny hands pink back up is so emotional to see. How sad that someone lost a precious child with those sweet little hands, but what am amazing gift for that loss to help someone else live a better life.
Pixiefan Yes, doctors expect that the transplanted hands will grow with Zion. Children’s bones have sections called growth plates, from which new bone tissue is produced until the bones reach adult size. The surgeons were very careful to keep the growth plates intact during his surgical procedure.
Words cannot express how freaking sweet this kid is. He is so courageous and he deserves his new hands. My favourite part was when he said; "and if something doesn't work out, I don't care because I still have my family." Now that is incredible. I really want to hug him right now. I also hopes he gets that puppy ❤️
mlb.nbcsports.com/2016/08/03/first-child-with-a-bilateral-hand-transplant-throws-out-first-pitch-at-camden-yards/ threw out the first pitch at the orioles game
Zion is so mature and well spoken for an 8 year old! That is just crazy. It just goes to show that the people with the hardest lives are the ones who learn to love what they have.
Bless the family that donated the little hands so another child could benefit from that wonderful gift. Oh, how selfless of a gift you gave while in such a unthinkable position you were put into with the death of your loved one, WAY to early in life! Thus, enabling a child to experience something he can't even imagine of having, since he can't remember what he once had, but that which was taken away from him way to early in his life as well. Zion, to experience the precious gift of hands, "to swing on the monkey bars". The transplant team and the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia have to be commended as well, for without them, this probably wouldn't have happened!
He's so sweet. This breaks my heart😓❤. His mom is beautiful. He's really blessed to have a mom that loves him so much. I'm so glad that he got the hands❤
This is breathtaking, My little sister goes to the same school as he does and she would always tell me how they played basketball together and how he had such a positive attitude and how he was so energetic and sweet. Seeing this makes me so happy because it shows how even the smallest and youngest people can have the strongest characters, the brightest smiles, and the best outlook on life!
i love this kid's spirit . I would love to take a leaf from his book because as an adult sometimes you find yourself having a bad day and feeling sorry for yourself ... and here is this kid accepting his life and how things are
This was absolutely remarkable to see. Science and technology never ceases to amaze me. And what a terrific team of intelligent and skillful doctors and nurses! It's great to see people like that in the medical field. Amazing story and I can't wait to see more of Zion.
We need to learn how to be like this kid. This is how we save the world. Zion if you are reading this we love and support you. I will pray for this little dude every single day of my life.
"And if it gets messed up, I don't care, because I have my family." This little young man is admirable; he's clearly smart and has the courage some adults don't possess. Best wishes to him and his family, and to the donor family. It's also amazing to see how far medicine has come... kudos to the surgeons/doctors who made this possible!
It's happens to the most kindest kids cause God Is inside all of them which are kind and God picked the ones which are kind bc he knew they keep strong and their the reason the world is bright. Without mistakes world would be perfect and that whould be no enough to keep the world together God told us all to be different not the same to try new things even if you die by doing it atleast yo followed God
Ah, this just gives me the warm fuzzies! X3 What an amazing boy! Everyone in this story is just so kind and full of love, and it warms my heart. I hope Zion goes on to do great things, and I hope so many other children and people in the world will be able to have a successful surgery like this. Way to go, Zion! Stay strong and stay brave! You are truly an amazingly smart and talented little boy. (PS, I hope he gets that puppy!)
Archer Bennington awful circumstance, makes me think it might have been meningitis and that's a devastating illness especially for precious children.. this warmed my heart also, as it should everyone because he had the best support system and his mother is amazing..wouldn't be surprised to see his story again when he does so many great things! This is the good stuff of life!!!
Well think about it it’s not that people think this video sucks it’s maybe because people don’t like the fact that a very intelligent and extraordinary kid has a disability that may prohibit him from reaching is amazing potential even though he could reach his potential and more
I mean there are no words to describe not only how amazing medicine/science are and how devoted and relentlessly supportive that Mom is, but most importantly, that unbelievable little boy. Completely amazing.
his mother is raising a really great kid. Smart, upbeat, persevering, humble. I wish him (and his family) all the luck in the world moving forward. Also the surgeons did a great job, salute to them.
What an incredible donor family to give this precious boy his new hands. I pray that if our family ever has to face the death of one of our kids, I can be as courageous! Zion & his mom are precious & I wish them all of the best!!!!
Melissa Clark I am sure you will make the right call for you and your family. It will not be courageous either way though because that word means not deterred by danger or pain. Brave doesn't work either. Moral and secular do work though.
“if it gets messed up, i don’t care because i have my family”. damn 😞
Ikr
веи х I low key cried
You go kid
Legitimately cried for a second at that
Leah Williams that Really hit me
"if it gets messed up.. I don't care, because I have my family." this kid is going places.
Dorian, what is your Vietnamese name?
Agree that part was heart warming
Dorian Nguyen Beyond heaven.
That part was so beautiful! 😊🙌🏾
I'm voting for this kid for president.
We lost our daughter at age 20. My wife insisted we donate all we could of Jill's body, so others received her eyes, liver, one kidney, some skin. It was surely the right thing to do for us...
+Randall Kelley
I'm very sorry for your loss, it was very kind of you to donate her body to other people in need!
Glad to hear you were strong enough. I'm sorry your little one has passed.
I'm very sorry for your loss, but you two are awesome people. Many people don't donate to people who are in desperate need of organs! You potentially saved so many people's lives. May jill rest in piece 💖

Probably more like a few hundred thousand but okay
Stop trying to get likes from other people's struggles
stop using this kid for likes

I don't care because I have my family. best line ever heard
Omar Faruk very true
Honestly I wish I had this confidence, meanwhile I hide behind comedy.
"if it get messed up, I don't care. I have my family." wow, just wow, this kid is an inspiration.
+Mohamed Saamy Agreed
I completely agree
Falafel BananaBooty Ikr what a kid
Same i agree with with you
Damn this kid is smarter than me
“Everyone has a different way of thinking”
His mother gave him a kidney awwwwww
I'd do the same for this lovely child 💕
As should any mother for her child!
What an incredible woman. I don’t see his Dad. 😢
What a wise kid...
Every kids are wise.
Cityana Menisa, wow 1 comment
I can't even believe that an 8-year-old speaks like this. He's just so mature, even wiser than many teenagers.
Many adults as well.
Well when you don’t have arms or feet you kinda gotta mature fast
He’s smarter than me and I’m almost 15 and oml this was commented 2 years ago why am I re-pying
I mean replying oml;;:;LlL;l
Honestly he is wiser than me
"I will be proud of my hands"
So sweet 💙🥺😭
Watching the blood rush into the hands was the most incredible thing I have ever seen in my life!!
I cried... ;u; I'm so happy for Zion
JoshlerShipper me two
Wtf is that really you
Judge Judy same
I got question, will the hands grow
we’ve also got to thank the family for donating hands❤️
‘If it gets messed up, I don’t care! Because I have my family’..!!
I saw god in him.🙏
''Some of my classmates don't mean to say mean things to me, but it just slips out. Everybody has their own way of thinking things.''
Every adult nowadays needs to hear this. Everyone who's insulted by other peoples rightful opinions, everyone who cares what other people stand for or what their opinions are. Just choose not to care and live your own life. Don't try to fix others, you just can't.
And this sentence comes out of a childs mouth, if he can think like that, so can adults.
He’s so brave
Word man Word
he's legit the bravest kid ever if i had to get a hand transplant I'd get anxiety did the operation
I’m actually crying rn , not because I feel sorry for him but because he’s such a strong and wise little boy. Why do people with REAL struggles always have a better attitude then people who are beyond blessed? Greatful then most adults I know.
The people who don’t have much are happy for what they do have. People who have a lot always want More! More! More!
Heaven Stinson people who are blessed just don’t know what they’ve got till it’s gone and then they feel entitled to have it back again
Heaven Stinson you have to fall to realise how lucky u are to get up
This boy is being raised so well, I'm jealous. He has great manners
“Why do you want hands?”
“I want to swing on the monkey bars.”
Stop cutting onions please....thank you
"And if these hands get messed up..I dont care because I have my family" this is what being humble and loved by your family is supposed to be like. Mom is raising a great kid. **someone is cutting onions damnit**
Yep someone be cutting quite a lot of onions in my house fuuuu
@@toast_basitaman6160 Oh i get it Its sad to me too and i rarely get sad
Someone cut a whole onion patch in my room bro.

Thank u for telling)
This little boy is everything...he just warms my heart.

I wish it was me
Absolutely x
notocha coe he really does
Seeing that other childs hands broke my heart. Being a mother, I couldnt imagine how difficult it would be to loose a child, let alone give parts of my baby away.
As brave as the boy is I also wanna say Rest In Peace and thank you to the doner and thank you to the family of the doner 🙏
The donor must have been as young as him that’s sad My condolences to the donor and donors family as well.
grand e I was just thinking of being in the donor family’s perspective and although it would be a very tough topic and decision you’d have to think to yourself that your son/daughter can bring joy to another family and that your child can change a life forever

May a part of them be able to share in the journey they made possible.
How can people dislike this vid, I mean like literally how? This is the worlds most sweetest boy and I am losing faith in humanity just beacause of those people 😭😢😫
Maybe because they dont like seeing him being attached to a bunch of cables and machines because they found it very sad?
Probably because people are sad at the beginning
Apex_Devils bc they were crying so much they couldn’t tell the buttons apart.
Because bots
Because people dislike the facted that he was disabled
"Everybody has their own way of thinking about things" "I think some people don't mean to be mean when they say it, it just slips out." Forget the surgery, forget the "inspiration" This kid is insanely intelligent. Clearly has a level of self awareness most don't have throughout their entire lives.
God bless him and the donor both. I expect great things from this young man.
I'm actually jealous of Zion. I wish I had his strength and positive attitude about life. Such a great kid and story.
Me too we can learn a lot from children, yes we have to teach them, but sometimes they are just wise and compassionate beyond their yrs.
God bless the family who lost their little one, and had the courage to give Zion these hands, .How courageous and unselfish a gift
MamaBoots1111 they have too much love God bless all kids :)
Respect for the donor's familly to..
We truly take life for Granted
I'm in so much tears of happiness
SHOUTOUT the brave parents who allowed another child to have a better quality of life after losing someone so important to them.
God dayum! He speaks fluent as hell! Props to you and your family Kid! love ya!
I know right, that's the first thing I noticed. All of that exposure to high caliber medical personnel on the daily looks as if it has definitely played the part.
@@prolifiktheory that's a good theory
He’s 8
I mean, he doesn’t need hands to speak lol
M K product of his environment
"My grandmother says I'm smarter than a lot of grown ups" Even just the sentence formation, his ideas, this child is so smart..and yes, Zion lol you ARE smarter than a lot of grown ups.

‘If it gets messed up, I’ll still have my family.’. If everyone thought like that the world world be a much better place
I think the people who disliked
We’re crying so much they pressed the wrong button
Hes 8 and way more mature than anyone I know
Unfortunately,, a life has to be lost in order for organs or body parts to be obtained. God bless the family that lost their child, but had the biggest heart in giving another child a chance at a "normal" life. As for Zion, you are more mature than your years and you are an amazing and courageous boy!
That is very true
One of the only things that’s so crazy to me is that his hands will grow while he grows.
If he becomes a pro boxer someone tell me cuz i want to support him
"If it gets messed up...I don't care because I have my family" damn that really hit me hard god bless this kid
+xShaf I know, such a sweet kid
Oh this whole video but me hard! Very profound! Amazing child, amazing mother!
What an amazing child. God certainly gives challenges to those who can handle it and this boy proves that.
*Kids are so pure and beautiful. Little angels on earth we have to take care of and love!!!!*
This kid (and his mom) are so freaking cute 🥰
oof Why did you put parentheses instead of just typing "this kid and his mom are so cute"?
For the people who disliked I think you are a monster
Edit: I just finished it and that is the bravest and sweetest boy I have ever seen
That little boy sounds smarter than some of the adults that I know.
This kid should run for president.
Like if u agree
how the hell people disliked this?
this kid got courage
he's an inspration
They probably dislike it because they thought it was sad
Aveesh KD maybe it was to sad
My dad worked on this transplant by organizing and planning the treatment, but he worked from home. My dad when to Philly (other side of America) and saw him. He says he was the sweetest kid, and was EXTREMELY thankful. God bless him.

To see those tiny hands pink back up is so emotional to see. How sad that someone lost a precious child with those sweet little hands, but what am amazing gift for that loss to help someone else live a better life.
Janine Riddle yea that all I could think about was the babe that lost their life.
Will the new hands be able to grow as Zion grows? Thats just my question.
Pixiefan
Yes, doctors expect that the transplanted hands will grow with Zion. Children’s bones have sections called growth plates, from which new bone tissue is produced until the bones reach adult size. The surgeons were very careful to keep the growth plates intact during his surgical procedure.
The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Ahh I love science. That's amazing
He's such an intelligent young man. He's dealt with so much and he's very brave. Props to him.
2019? I wonder how’s he doing now
How do people dislike this video. It’s a video about a young smart boy who receives new hands and a new life basically.
Yes, Zion! You are smarter than a lot of adults AND you're stronger than a lot of them too! Hang in there buddy! You're a miracle!
I wholeheartedly agree, Monica!!!
+Monica Moser He really is, there is nothing he can't do!!
Too see those little hands return to life evokes so many levels of emotion. Wow... just wow.

Julie Russell Julie, I understand the sentiment but doubt that praying will be as useful as rehab, medicine, and doctors.
He is such an inspirational kid, who is only 8 😢😞
Zion is so mature and well spoken for an 8 year old! That is just crazy. It just goes to show that the people with the hardest lives are the ones who learn to love what they have.
Huge kudos to the parents of the donor child to give such a life changing gift in the wake of such tragedy. And all the best for little Zion!

The transplant team and the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia have to be commended as well, for without them, this probably wouldn't have happened!
Our whole school was watching this in assembly and a lot of people cried including me
He's so sweet. This breaks my heart😓❤. His mom is beautiful. He's really blessed to have a mom that loves him so much. I'm so glad that he got the hands❤
This is breathtaking, My little sister goes to the same school as he does and she would always tell me how they played basketball together and how he had such a positive attitude and how he was so energetic and sweet. Seeing this makes me so happy because it shows how even the smallest and youngest people can have the strongest characters, the brightest smiles, and the best outlook on life!
How is he doing now??? Are his hands working well?
IM GONNA START CRYING I LOVE THE ENERGY OF THIS LITTLE BOY AND I WISH I COULD BE AS STRONG AS HIM ESPECIALLY WITH SOMETHING AS TRAUMATIC AS THIS!
i love this kid's spirit . I would love to take a leaf from his book because as an adult sometimes you find yourself having a bad day and feeling sorry for yourself ... and here is this kid accepting his life and how things are
And excelling at it! What a special person he is
If you gave a thumbs down on this video you are just mean
This mom is doing something right if he cares about his family more than his ability's 😊
She seems like a wonderful mother! She donated a kidney to him too! I love Zion, he a special one!
This was absolutely remarkable to see. Science and technology never ceases to amaze me. And what a terrific team of intelligent and skillful doctors and nurses! It's great to see people like that in the medical field. Amazing story and I can't wait to see more of Zion.
Our species has so much potential... We are a great species; there's nothing we can't achieve as long as we all work together. Touched beyond words...
Incertus Veritas We are NOT a great species. Yes, something's are truly incredible but we kill and destroy and bully.
We need to learn how to be like this kid.
This is how we save the world.
Zion if you are reading this we love and support you.
I will pray for this little dude every single day of my life.
"And if it gets messed up, I don't care, because I have my family."
This little young man is admirable; he's clearly smart and has the courage some adults don't possess. Best wishes to him and his family, and to the donor family. It's also amazing to see how far medicine has come... kudos to the surgeons/doctors who made this possible!
Why do these happen to the kindest kids.🤔😕
He is so wise👌🙏god bless him.
But at least it all comes together in the end 😍😊
Adversary brings out the best in people.
why do the kindest kids happen to these????
NUGGETS yeah
It's happens to the most kindest kids cause God Is inside all of them which are kind and God picked the ones which are kind bc he knew they keep strong and their the reason the world is bright. Without mistakes world would be perfect and that whould be no enough to keep the world together God told us all to be different not the same to try new things even if you die by doing it atleast yo followed God
NUGGETS because the kids who have lost something sees life preciously and take life for granted
Ah, this just gives me the warm fuzzies! X3
What an amazing boy! Everyone in this story is just so kind and full of love, and it warms my heart. I hope Zion goes on to do great things, and I hope so many other children and people in the world will be able to have a successful surgery like this. Way to go, Zion! Stay strong and stay brave! You are truly an amazingly smart and talented little boy.
(PS, I hope he gets that puppy!)
Archer Bennington awful circumstance, makes me think it might have been meningitis and that's a devastating illness especially for precious children.. this warmed my heart also, as it should everyone because he had the best support system and his mother is amazing..wouldn't be surprised to see his story again when he does so many great things! This is the good stuff of life!!!
Archer Bennington h
🥇he is so brave and strong to be bully
I want a puppy to
what do u mean im shivering im so scared something will go wrong
"i dont care, i still have my family"
beautiful kid with a beautiful heart
Breathtakingly admirable, every single person involved in this amazing story. This is human intellect and perseverance at its finest.
Who could dislike this
There’s always gotta be a hater
Well think about it it’s not that people think this video sucks it’s maybe because people don’t like the fact that a very intelligent and extraordinary kid has a disability that may prohibit him from reaching is amazing potential even though he could reach his potential and more
This kid is like the smaller version of dangmattsmith so cute 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
That kid is my cousin
Young dagger X but smarter
Such a Beautiful Mom!! To have endured so much with her baby!! She deserves The Best Mom Award!! Endless Love 4 your Child
This video makes me thankful that I have hands even though I take them for granted.
I think to find new appreciation in something once taken for granted is a wonderful thing. Good for you!
That child is so god dam precious and humble. I love that kid.
Never see a kid this wise his a humble kid
4 years later:
RUclips: now seems like a good time to put this in recommended
This young boy is really cute when he talks.
He is truly blessed.
Bro who else cried
Jacen Colantuono oh yeah yeah 😕😭😭
Nvm I just cried
its tuff my guy
Legit see you everywhere
Oh yea yea I did
I mean there are no words to describe not only how amazing medicine/science are and how devoted and relentlessly supportive that Mom is, but most importantly, that unbelievable little boy. Completely amazing.
Wow, what a kid, and what a mother donating her kidney! Amazing, sweet family. ❤️
his mother is raising a really great kid. Smart, upbeat, persevering, humble.
I wish him (and his family) all the luck in the world moving forward.
Also the surgeons did a great job, salute to them.
Are they going to get bigger as he ages
Same question
Good question.
That will be interesting to find out.
Yes cause his body will adapt to the hands as if they are his own as long as the body doesn’t reject it
Unless the growplates are damaged then yes
Dallas Handy yeah the hands grow with him
What an incredible donor family to give this precious boy his new hands. I pray that if our family ever has to face the death of one of our kids, I can be as courageous! Zion & his mom are precious & I wish them all of the best!!!!
Melissa Clark I am sure you will make the right call for you and your family. It will not be courageous either way though because that word means not deterred by danger or pain. Brave doesn't work either. Moral and secular do work though.
“I don’t care if they mess my hands up because I have my family “
Omg I’m in tears ❤️bless him 😭
Zion is so cute that he made me cried about everything
