The small babysitter

True Story

Sibling, best friend, and babysitter. For little Beckett his sister is all of this. A five year old girl who spends her time taking care of her sick brother rather than playing with dolls. Does she even have a childhood?

Beckett is a four year old boy, who was diagnosed with cancer. Initially the disease showed no symptoms, but gradually with time he became more and more tired, he would often sleep and never wanted to play. His parents would have to regularly take him to the hospital, and his older sister couldn’t understand what was wrong with her brother.

„Why does my brother always have to go to the doctor? Why is Beckett sleeping again? Why doesn’t he want to play with me?“

She constantly kept asking her parents, but they were helpless and didn’t know how to explain the situation to their five year old daughter.

But like it is with children, most of them surpass their parent’s expectations, and it was the same in this case. Their daughter didn’t need any explaining in the end. She didn’t care about what with wrong with her brother, She just needed to figure out how she can help him. And she figured it out. From this time on she would constantly hug her brother and spend most of her free time with him. Instead of playing games on the field with her friends she played with her brother. She patiently leads him around the apartment and takes care of him when he doesn’t feel good. 

It is amazing, how well small children are able to perceive adult affairs. How a five year old little girl understands that her time with her brother is limited, and she needs to enjoy her time with him as much as possible.

It is a miracle how selfless a child's mind can be.

For children it is natural for them to help. That is how it should be with adults as well. Help someone, their life story will hit you. YeahCoach Direct help goes directly to helping those in need.
