Michelle Rahm shared a story of inspiration that touched our hearts too.
The true story of Bridger Walker who put his life at risk to save his sister from a dog attack. When young Bridger saw a dog charging at his little sister, he jumped in to stand between her and the dog. Before he could grab his sister’s hand and escape, Bridger was bitten by the dog multiple times on the face and head.
A few days later his aunt posted on social media this note: “After receiving 90 stitches (give or take) from a skilled plastic surgeon, he’s finally resting at home. We love our brave boy and want all the other superheroes to know about this latest hero who joined their ranks.” And that was all it took for this story to spread- Hundreds of thousands of social media users and celebrities on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter saw the show of Bridger’s bravery and voiced their support for the little “hero” from Cheyenne. Little did she know, Bridger’s story would touch the hearts of people across the globe and would be shared on news sites in countries like India and Britain.
Michelle learned that Bridger loved rocks and being a gemologist, that was all it took for her to reach out to this boy and start a friendship. So, when Michelle was offered the chance to present "Moment of Inspiration" to the club, it was a no-brainer who inspires her. Thanks for sharing Michelle!
