A viral video showing Jayce Correia rapping for and about his son Jared, who has special-needs, is speaking volumes to many people on the value of human life. From People:

Jared Correia experienced a stroke while in the womb and consequently has spent his eight years of life living with a variety of debilitating medical conditions. He has cerebral palsy, hydrocephalus and epilepsy, which has left him without the ability to stand, walk, talk or see.

But he can hear, which is where his dad comes in….

Jared “might not be able to see, or comprehend much, but boy can he hear and feel a rhythm,” Jayce told the Huffington Post.

Correia continued: “Anyone who is part of a special needs family knows the struggles and the blessings that come with it. I know as a parent the frustrations that come with it. I want people to know that they are not alone. That those feelings of frustration are normal. We are only human. Life is not about how hard you can hit, it’s about how hard you can be hit and keep on going.”
