News that'll make you smile


They're adding a building at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston and every day, kids who come to the nearby clinic write their name on pieces of paper and tape them to the windows for the ironworkers to see. The workers then spray-paint the kids' names onto the building's beams. How great is that?

    I am with Kiera Beth, I had a tear in my eye too! That is just so beautiful! My granddaddy was an ironworker, and a softie for all of his grandchildren. He sure would have loved this story!!!
