A parent never wants to imagine outliving their child, but sometimes it happens. We all deal with grief differently, and some people have the amazing ability to make beautiful things out of something so tragic. Johnny Shelton is one of these people. A recent contestant on America’s Got Talent, Johnny wrote his own song all about the son he lost recently to cancer. You may want to grab a tissue before you push play, because this video is a tear jerker!
I was wiping away tears before he even started playing the song! I just kept imaging how I could carry on if I lost my child, and how Johnny is such a strong dad. What did you think of this song? Let us know in our comments!
