Kelly Clarkson moved by Seattle Children’s viral video

May 9, 2012, 12:13 PM | Updated: 12:47 pm

Tuesday, on the Ron and Don Show we told you about the
amazing, emotional video of cancer patients and staff at
Seattle Children’s Hospital singing to Kelly Clarkson’s
hit
song “Stronger”.

The guy who made it, 22-year-old Chris Rumble, is an
aspiring film maker and minor league hockey player. He
was
recently diagnosed with leukemia, and got the inspiration
for the video while undergoing treatment at the hospital.

“Everyone was genuinely happy on Saturday when were
filming that and all the parents were just happy too,
which
was kind of a relief for parents to see their kids having
fun,” Rumble told our news partner KING 5.

The video is bringing plenty of people to tears and
going
viral, and even Clarkson is clearly moved. The superstar
tweeted about it late Tuesday night:

“Oh my goodness y’all have to see this! It’s beautiful!
I
can’t wait to visit these kids and nurses! It’s Seattle
Children’s Hospital, I believe. God Bless y’all!” she
wrote.
