Cruelty and Bravery

Oh man, I'm really at loss for words. What a brave, little girl - going through all the physical and mental pain.

You need to read the article from term-time.com about 7-year-old Levana Hanson from Tewkesbury (Gloucestershire, UK) who has been bullied and tormented, but fights back learning karate.

The young girl had both legs amputated below the knee after being struck by one of the most aggressive forms of the meningitis bug when she was only 11 months old.

This brave girl has fought a daily battle to walk and she admits every karate lesson causes her pain.

Levana, you're a true hero in my book. Keep fighting, and never give up! Note to the rest of us - stop complaining about petty things, please...
