A good friend of mine told me about this and I had to pass it on.
The song on on this video was written for a little girl named Juliana. The song was written and produced by Skip Ewing. Skip was so touched by Juliana's spirit that he decided to create this song for her and sell it so that the proceeds could go to helping Juliana and her family.
This video and background information regarding Juliana and the story behind the song was relayed over to me by a good tennis buddy of mine. Our Christmas Wish is that each of you would take a couple of minutes to view the video from the link below and and a couple of dollars to purchase the song, either from the iTunes or Amazon links on that page for $0.99 or buy the physical CD single for $1.99.

Here is a a link to the press release explaining more about the project:

Here is an excerpt from that about Juliana's condition:
About Juliana Wetmore: 6-year-old Juliana Wetmore had her first surgery at 5 days old. She has since endured more than 30 trips to the operating room. Her surgeries continue to be solely to assist her to function without a tracheal or feeding tube as she grows—none for cosmetic purposes. She is effected by the most severe case of Treacher Collins Syndrome in medical history (a condition that affects the development of the bones and other tissues in the face.) However, in all other respects she is a healthy first grader taking piano lessons, and practicing ballet.
Thank you all for your help, for those who can, and best wishes to all.
Please feel free to spread the word of Juliana's plight to your friends and family in a hope that they too are touched and reach out to help.
