On Friday, March 27th, people around the world will be wearing yellow. And after hearing this story, we hope you will, too.
It's not because it's spring or because it's a special holiday. It's because a very brave little boy named Seth Lane has wants us to.
Five-year old-Seth was born with Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID) and is currently living in Newcastle Children's Hospital in the U.K., where he is awaiting a second bone marrow transplant, just like we saw with this little angel, baby Reef. For almost all of his life he's had to live in isolation, which is why his rare genetic disorder is also known as "bubble boy syndrome."
Seth's family recently posted the following video online in hopes their son would get some support for his scary, painful upcoming procedure by having people wearing his favorite color on March 27th. In only a few days, Seth's video has gone viral with an overwhelming outpouring of support from people all over the world. Shiyah Dylans wrote on YouTube "New Zealand will be wearing yellow for you Seth!!" and Shazze Addamo wrote "You are sooo gorgeous Seth! I just want to cuddle you."
Seth's parents are asking people to post photos of themselves wearing yellow on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram with the hashtag "#WearYellowForSeth," so they can print them for his hospital room.
