Came across this story on the BBC website, it's about a 3 year old called Izzy

She was born 16 weeks premature and has a complex neuro disability, she can't talk or walk unaided

So what's she done

Using a harness attached to her mum she's walked the distance of a marathon, 26 miles, in a month, all in aid of a non profit organisation supported by her mum, Pawsitive Squad, which supports young adults with assistance dogs

These are the sort of stories that are uplifting and make us so proud.

Wonderful. And let us also pay tribute to the parents, or in cases like Tony Hudgell adoptive parents, who love and support these children and teach them that they can succeed.
