When sometimes we hear the words 'Kids' and 'Sacrifice' in the same sentence, we often think about the parents. Fathers and Mothers will give up everything they've got for their kids.

They invest time far beyond their daily jobs to help their kids with homework, invest money in their kids education, and they are always there to help in every second of the day.

But the next story is extremely special since the roles have switched - A 7 year old kid has made the ultimate sacrifice for his mother. Not only did he help saving her life, but he also touched the hearts of millions around the world.

When I finished reading this story I was left with tears in my eyes. It is that emotional.
