Leon Ford was told by doctors that he’ll never walk again after he was shot 5 times by a Pittsburgh police officer in 2015. However, he’s not letting that deter him from trying, and he’s got a son who is encouraging him to never give up.

Leon just shared an emotional video of his little son encouraging him to keep pushing as he tried to move with a walker.

“Keep pushing. Keep pushing. Don’t give up,” the little boy told his father as he walked beside him.

The video immediately went viral after it was shared a few hours ago with over 87,000 people retweeting it.

Watch the video below.
