Jack Hoffman is a normal seven-year-old boy, except he has brain cancer.

And in today's video, Jack is given the chance to get on the field for Nebraska and manages to pull off a 69-yard touchdown.

It was wonderful to see this little boy get his "Make A Wish". We have a local little girl who has made local and State news, not made National news yet that I know of but she did get her "Make A Wish" and has been enjoying the time of her life in Florida with her family.

BROOKLYN AND FAMILY IS NOW ENJOYING A MAKE-A-WISH EXPERIENCE IN FLORIDA. I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH YOU JUST A FEW HIGHLIGHTS OF THE FIRST THREE DAYS. THESE ARE TAKEN FROM MATT AND NIKKI'S FACEBOOK PAGES SO SOME OF YOU HAVE ALREADY BEEN FOLLOWING THEIR AWESOME TIME. AFTER SEEING WHAT BROOKLYN HAS BEEN THROUGH FOR NEARLY 5 YEARS I AM SO THANKFUL THAT SHE HAS REBOUNDED AND BECOME HEALTHY ENOUGH TO MAKE THIS JOURNEY. BROOKLYN IS STILL VERY FRAGILE AND HAVING INFUSIONS EVERY TWO WEEKS AND YOUR CONTINUED PRAYERS ARE NEEDED AND APPRECIATED.

Today is National Kabuki Syndrome Awareness Day! I am going to steal Nikki's status: I want to wish a Happy Kabuki Syndrome Awareness Day to all of our families across the world. Kabuki affects one in every 32,000 births...and Brooklyn is one of these very special and unique kids. She has touched the lives of everyone she knows. We are so incredibly lucky to be the parents of such an inspirational kid. Thinking of all our Kabuki kids today. PLEASE look at the Kabuki Syndrome site (look at the left side of the homepage and you will see Brooklyn):
