This is an amazing video that was sent to me by a friend. It’s a short clip about an autistic boy who was used to running about after a basketball team, getting water, mopping sweat and helping the coach out. although many of you may have seen it I thought i would share it. The boys name is Jason McElwain and this video was shot a few years ago. I thought I would share this with you as my inspiring video choice of the week.

I love it.
Speech less.
I hate you a little for making me cry at 7AM. A wonderfully inspiring video indeed.
Don, amazing isn’t it. It’s one of those stories that would make a great family film.
Sorry Benjamin for the tears, it’s hard not to at stories like this.
Full of passion, full of win. A great video. Thanks for pointing this out.
Very inspiring and touching video! Jason is one of the great example to follow. And he simply shows that having disorder is not a hindrance.
What’s to say, it is absolutely amazing.
It’s an eye openner for many!
if you try your best you will succeed in what ever you do!

I have a 4 year old who is autistic. I am so hopeful for his future! What I loved more about this than the basketball is that Jason was able to have meaningful relationships with others. This is something that my son cannot do right now – but I keep working and hoping. I watch these videos over and over again – hoping one day I will be watching my own son. To Jason’s parents – you are my inspiration!
