I remember watching this right after he died, maybe that day or the day after he died. This story still gets to me. I mean having a serious ilness and still having a smile on your face. Especially at 11 years old. Now that's strong. Rest in Peace Brenden
brenden i never knew you and i never met you but if i did you what have changed my life inside this 11 year old is an angel may you rest in peace and become an angel of the heaven and you will always be charished RIP Brenden Foster may god bless you
Comparing someone stricken with illness against their will with filthy beggars who refuse to work is disgusting. There are those who give and those who take; now the loss of a life gains a sandwich--for shame. I expect after watching this video that many of you will drop a nickle in the cup but my resolve not to is only furthered.
god.... just think of what he would have done if he lived to grow up and die old i hope he becomes an angel and i hope he gets to c his family grow up. this kid is very mature he made me cry
Humans and Angels are two seperate types of creatures god has created, humans don't die and become angels or vice versa, you're born as either an angel or human being.
It's impressive that an 11 year old child has more intellect and more integrity than you will ever have. Beyond the fact that sugar has nothing to do with leukemia, and beyond the fact that you're using the word "retard," when his name is at the top of the page and you still can't manage to spell it correctly, you're making fun of a deceased 11 year old because you know you'll never in your entire life amount to half the human that he was in his short time on this earth.
That was in response to a comment that tastefully was deleted. Sorry for the outburst, but this kinda stuff gets to me, no parent should have to bury their child, especially one of this calibre, when most 11 year olds are self absorbed, and wondering which toy they'll get next, and if they don't it, can't accept why. He on the other hand wished to help people in poor conditions, when he was in a poor condition himself. We'd be blessed if more people were like this child.
Don't stand by my grave Don't stand by my grave and weep, For I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond's glint in the snow, I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn's rain. In the soft blush of the morning light I am the swift bird in flight. Don't stand by my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die. Mary Frye
This magnificent young man was definitly one of a kind. If I was faced with knowing I would die in a week, I would be terrified. Brenden your strength was inspiring in many ways. I cry for your rare inner beauty lost, not for the disease that took prematurely. Love Joshua
The other side is very beautiful; yet these words cannot describe the glimpse of it seen by some of us. God took you home the minute we said goodbye; we will see you again Brendan. Rest in Peace, in the Peace of God's Eternal Love
What a sweet baby! My thoughts are with his family, especially Brenden's mom who will miss him so much. I am going to do my part to continue this brave and thoughtful boy's mission to help feed the homeless. Brenden was more mature in his 11 years than most adults I know. You are loved Brenden.
Wow, this is one of the most touching things I've ever seen. How can a great kid like him be taken so soon? It just doesn't make any sense. Heaven will welcome him with open arms.
Brenden i just wanted to sware to u god is taking u to a better place, i promise. dont worry u will spend eternity in heaven, where u wont have lukemia.
i dont get it either its not fair...he doesnt deserve this i swear i would give up my life to let him have his such a pure soul its not fair...why is this allowed by god? i still cry and i watched this about 500 times
If I was dying like he did, I would pretty much do the same. :D

Yes, this is remarkable and inspiring. No doubt.
But it would be that much more remarkable and inspiring if he did not think he was going to heaven in the end. How even more courageous he would be.
