As they watched each other across Jimmy Fund Way, patients in the Jimmy Fund Clinic and ironworkers constructing a new Dana-Farber building formed a silent but powerful connection. Based on a true story.

I remember this advert from 20 years ago. It's as powerful now as it was then.

I remember this would play at movie theaters back in the late 1990’s before the movie trailers would start

@@Knightfall3000 I actually thought it was a trailer for a movie about the early years of fighting childhood cancer. I made a mental note to keep an eye out for its release! 😄

Hearts bigger than the building itself, stronger than iron, but melt at the sight of these kids. Real men there.

In 1972 I had a class at St. Jude's and every time I went there, I had to go through a large waiting area. It was filled with kids that had no hair and black marks on their skulls that were placed there to line up the beam for radiation treatment. Except for that they were normal acting kids about the same age as mine at the time. It affected me forever. This video makes me tear up and thank God for the good that we all can do to help each other.

I remember going there. I wasn’t a patient, but my best friend was. Having your best friend get diagnosed at 14 is life changing, you definitely gain new perspective on your life.

I feel like anyone who ever went to the movies in the 90s or 2000s remembers this ad. In the days prior to cell phones, this was how you knew it was time for the movie to start
