When growing up, siblings are bound to fight with each other.
Brothers and sisters can be arch enemies, but then become best friends in a split second.
But at the end of the day, no matter how bad the fight was, siblings are always there for each other.
A little girl named 10-year-old Lindsay Cochran and her 12-year old brother, Trenton, share an extraordinary bond with each other.
Lindsay says that her brother is a hero, a helper, and an advocate for her.
“He’s very nice and caring. He takes care of me a lot. When I’m sick and I ask him to bring my my stuffed animals, he’ll bring them to me.

It’s just easier going through life with Trenton,” said Lindsay.
And Trenton says that he’d take a bullet for his little sister, and he just wants to do everything to make Lindsay better.
This special love between them started ever since they were very young. Due to a rare disease called the Spinal Muscular Atrophy, which only occurs in 8 out of every 100,000 births, Lindsay has been in a wheelchair since she was only 2-years-old.
And in order to raise awareness and money for those who are suffering from this terrible disease, this young boy stepped up.

In this heartwarming video, Trenton speaks up for his beloved sister and the others.
“Just because she’s different, doesn’t mean she doesn’t fit in,” said Trenton in the video.
The moment that made me tear up was around 1:45, when Trenton breaks down in tears as he was talking about how much he loves and cares for his sister.
