I'm 18 years strong as a Bone Cancer survivor (Osteosarcoma) - Where's my Christian Bale?

mintfoot · 2012-09-07T20:35:45+00:00

I have a massive mancrush on Christian Bale.

mcgeem5 · 2012-09-07T21:36:38+00:00

People like to speculate about the character of celebrities based upon tabloid news reporting, but given this picture, and his unannounced visit to Colorado, I think it is safe to say that Christian Bale is probably a pretty decent guy.

Link2999 · 2012-09-07T23:14:09+00:00

Why are people making jokes about his weight? He's obviously taking (medicinal) steroids that are making him swell. Really not funny at all. I had to go through the same thing after my Bone Marrow transplant (for an Immune Deficiency I had when I was younger) and can tell you it was not fun AT ALL. Also, had to recently go on them after contracting a strain of Parvovirus that contributed to a case of immune hemolytic anemia.

GoNavy_09 · 2012-09-07T21:24:19+00:00

Christian Bale took a pic with a kid with cancer. Atheist Bale did not.

Lance_Pharmstrong · 2012-09-07T21:27:14+00:00

OH GOOD FOR HIM

WylieC2 · 2012-09-07T21:21:25+00:00

It isn't for the exact same kind of cancer, but if you are in the UK, sign up to Anthony Nolan here: http://www.anthonynolan.org/ If they find a match, they can use you to help try and cure someone. They are desperate for 18-35 year old males (i.e. you), so it is really worth it.

Please consider being a marrow donor everyone! Click here!

Downstroyer · 2012-09-07T23:16:52+00:00

Son of a fucking bitch.... that kid looks like my little brother... omg.

Like all the sudden it really sank in that shit like that can happen to anyone. That could of been my little brother. The idea of him having to go through so much shit... man, maybe it's just my mood today but fuck that hit me hard.

Serious shit, does anyone have a reputable bone cancer charity? Or something? I feel like I have to do something now, all I want is to make this kids problems go away. lol It sounds almost childish to say, but damn I seriously just cannot imagine the idea that my little brother would ever have to deal with something like that.

Seriously though... anyone know anything I can do to contribute? I really want to help now, eyes have been opened by this one little boy.

Edit to say I've saved these pictures as a constant reminder that I need to contribute more, I've been fucking weeping like a little girl for like 15 minutes lol.

Anal_Explorer · 2012-09-07T20:29:44+00:00

What a great guy.

gringobachatero · 2012-09-07T20:34:18+00:00

I so wanna believe Bale is a nice guy. That whole audio recorded rant from a few years ago put me off, but seeing things like this is restoring my faith in him.

boosted7 · 2012-09-07T20:04:29+00:00

GG Christian bale - Takes photo with you, doesn't hoverhand.

Christian bale. A real class act except for that time he had a spaz. Everybody has their off days I guess

watchtheworldsmolder · 2012-09-07T23:07:46+00:00

From someone who has cancer running and killing in their family and has a young child, this made the hair on my neck stand up, not just celebrities but most people just look the other way and ignore when they see people in obvious cancer treatment never mind touch them

AgentFlynn · 2012-09-07T20:08:49+00:00

And he looks thrilled.

SoulTea · 2012-09-07T22:31:52+00:00

Right in the feels. Good man Mr. Bale.

mojambo · 2012-09-07T20:17:06+00:00

I think this is Club 33 in Disneyland

Dr623 · 2012-09-07T21:48:06+00:00

Christian Bale is the man.

SonofSin17 · 2012-09-07T22:07:29+00:00

This might be the greatest picture I've seen in a LONG time

ThedudeORL · 2012-09-07T22:22:47+00:00

Dude of the year hands down. Bale is a boss

HopelesslyStupid · 2012-09-07T23:28:33+00:00

Damn it, I hope that kid turns out okay, it is so heartbreaking looking at him and knowing he may not make it. Looks so innocent. :/

Bucketcup · 2012-09-07T20:50:07+00:00

Not Boneitis!?!?

Stjepo · 2012-09-07T14:34:09-07:00

Where on earth are they, that there is a harpsichord in the parlour!?

bravo_six · 2012-09-07T21:52:20+00:00

Most awesome guy there is Christian Bale

Steve0mac · 2012-09-07T22:06:55+00:00

bale is the man

ProJokeExplainer · 2012-09-07T22:32:34+00:00

I hope he used the batman voice the whole time

manny365 · 2012-09-07T23:04:41+00:00

This post made my day.

Fugitivebush · 2012-09-07T23:20:50+00:00

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

Look at that cute little marshmallow.

I just wanna hug him.

You're my cuppycake, gumdrop, snoogums-boogums

Nubbin73 · 2012-09-07T23:34:12+00:00

I've been coming to the reddit homepage for a while and I never had an account. Seeing this picture warmed my heart and made me sign up so I can comment. Reading the update below I see he's doing much better. I hope he does well.

tophOCMC · 2012-09-07T23:40:24+00:00

I like that he chills with kids in need, but why is he always Broin out with the shades and a backpack?

Godfreak · 2012-09-08T00:07:41+00:00

He does a lot of stuff for sick kids and communities and stuff, it seems.

KrunoS · 2012-09-08T00:23:30+00:00

Bone cancer is horrendous. Good to know the little man's doing well.

Untz234 · 2012-09-08T00:38:48+00:00

Honest question: is his "size" anyway caused by his condition

aquajerk · 2012-09-08T01:06:18+00:00

Why would people downvote this? It's amazing a movie star would even consider this, let alone follow through with a personal visit.

PollySix · 2012-09-08T01:12:14+00:00

Ah shit, I cried. No more feels please, it's all too much.

lonelyhotgirl · 2012-09-08T01:20:47+00:00

oh my God, sooo cute, can I just kiss his chubby cheeks:)

yokopwno · 2012-09-08T02:05:02+00:00

Christian Bale seems like such a sound guy. Bloody legend.

DoogieBrowser · 2012-09-08T02:32:34+00:00

Here's the link for anyone wanting the full story. Turns out this kid is from my hometown of Youngstown, OH, and there was a whole day dedicated to him in Boardman. Good stuff, good for the kid.

Papapoliwag · 2012-09-08T02:49:08+00:00

That is by far the cutest little dude i have ever seen.

2muchparty · 2012-09-08T03:12:30+00:00

33 club in Disneyland. Was just there a while ago. That piano and another piece of furniture I don't believe is visible in the photo were used in Mary Poppins.

Bval · 2012-09-07T21:45:59+00:00

Spanky has bone cancer?!

dummystupid · 2012-09-07T18:37:45+00:00

His only regret is having bone cancer.

mknelson · 2012-09-07T23:03:01+00:00

Not going to lie - I welled up a bit.

acheronavernus · 2012-09-07T22:12:06+00:00

Now that he has met his hero, his only regret is that he has boneitis.

TheCloudDancer · 2012-09-07T18:13:31+00:00

This child is the real courageous hero.

Kuusou · 2012-09-07T22:00:03+00:00

you are my honey bun sugar plum!

fingertrollin · 2012-09-07T22:29:03+00:00

I can't get over how much I like Christian Bale as an actor and person. He's up there with John Ham.

thenatkid · 2012-09-07T22:39:15+00:00

he is recruiting his new robin

gj45 · 2012-09-07T22:39:40+00:00

Nice to know he isn't a total dick. Thanks. I needed that.

SheldonPlankton · 2012-09-07T22:44:57+00:00

Except it probably crushed the child finding that Batman was in truth a regular human..

LeperFriend · 2012-09-07T23:23:21+00:00

Damn Christian Bale keeps doing stuff to make me think he's not as much of a dick as I had thought, good for him and good for the little boy too

Papaganoosh · 2012-09-07T23:26:43+00:00

Sharp 4 year old, of course christian bale will appear if you light the bat signal

Deadpoo · 2012-09-07T16:30:18-07:00

Someone give this boy a Tumbler ride

"Lit the Bat Signal" sounds like an euphemism for smoking weed.

"Oh gooooooood for you.... and how was it?"

illmattic713 · 2012-09-08T00:00:13+00:00

I read the title as ," 4 year old with boner cancer"

gingerbeersax · 2012-09-08T00:17:35+00:00

There is still good in this world.

vellyboo · 2012-09-08T00:31:40+00:00

I awe'd! Great picture!

Aenous · 2012-09-08T00:34:28+00:00

Looks like they're at Club 33 at Disneyland.

lazydracula · 2012-09-08T00:38:32+00:00

Oh good for YOU

CallMeMoo · 2012-09-08T00:40:59+00:00

Seriously, this man may actually be the closest thing we have to a real Batman.

Platypuses · 2012-09-08T00:53:15+00:00

At first i thought it said 4 year old with boner, i think this is cooler though

diplomat26 · 2012-09-08T00:56:14+00:00

all i've ever heard about bale was that he's an asshole. This year I have learned the exact opposite

badlydrawnjohn · 2012-09-08T00:58:43+00:00

Damn, that guy must slay so much pussy.

oldfashionedguy · 2012-09-08T01:00:23+00:00

I just found out my wife ie related to this kid.

vainamo- · 2012-09-08T01:05:47+00:00

It seems like Christian Bale's time of being a dick is coming to an end.

psmwrxguy · 2012-09-08T01:06:36+00:00

Aren't these poor kids scared to death when they hear that ridiculous welsh accent?

voidking · 2012-09-08T01:10:34+00:00

...onions man... so heart warming to see this little boy meet Batman and then to have Christian Bale step up... wow. Amazing, brings a tear to my eye.

ceallaig · 2012-09-08T01:14:05+00:00

Good for Mr. Bale! And double good for that scrappy survivor -- may he live long and prosper for many years to come (yes, I'm mixing my fandoms, deal ...)

parker214 · 2012-09-08T01:14:08+00:00

I always thought Christian Bale was an asshole, but my opinion of him lately has improved significantly.

lawschoollorax · 2012-09-08T01:14:28+00:00

Those cheeks!!! I wanna give them a squeeze!! He is precious.

corporette · 2012-09-08T01:17:18+00:00

I don't care how much of an asshole Christian may be on set... he makes my vagina immensely happy.

seanpmc · 2012-09-08T01:35:50+00:00

Christian Bale is just so classy.

rickybobby516 · 2012-09-08T01:42:24+00:00

Hello. Patrick Bateman here

JayceMJ · 2012-09-08T01:44:13+00:00

I know he's more well known as Batman, but I honestly can't see anyone besides Patrick Bateman.

navcad · 2012-09-08T01:48:22+00:00

very cool!

daxorion27 · 2012-09-08T02:02:02+00:00

First time this has happened to me

donniedisney · 2012-09-08T02:03:21+00:00

Is that inside club 33?

x_PinkJellyBean_x · 2012-09-08T02:28:12+00:00

Awee man.. I had metastitic osteo sarcoma and i didn't get to meet Christian Bale... =[

Mtownsprts · 2012-09-08T02:36:32+00:00

Good guy Christian Bale.

Jaggleberry · 2012-09-08T03:08:05+00:00

I swear Christian Bale looks more like Big Boss from Metal Gear Solid every day.

avatre0 · 2012-09-08T03:24:10+00:00

When I see something like this I feel a littler better about humanity

MrNiceWatchBro · 2012-09-08T03:32:13+00:00

What a handsome little man.

archemedes_rex · 2012-09-08T03:55:18+00:00

That has to be the cutest example of a real-life Campbells' kid ever.

This dude is trying to out karma you, 2 hours later none the less. http://imgur.com/MW1Ri

Ioved this kid on the goonies

capncrunch94 · 2012-09-08T06:15:08+00:00

If you think about it this would kinda suck in a certain way. The coolest thing this kid will probably ever do is meet Batman and he did it when he was 4. It's all downhill from here. He'll constantly be reminded of "that time he met batman/christian bale"............................................................... The bone cancer is pretty bad alo.
