Social media can be a mean beast at times but every once in a while it can be harnessed for good.
Let's hope this is one of those times.
Ten-year-old William Ihle, a Minneapolis boy with a rare genetic disorder, is on the hunt for his missing best friend, Eeyore. The stuffed donkey disappeared while William and his family were traveling on spring break last week.
As William's mother explained on Facebook, Eeyore is no regular stuffed animal. William has tuberous sclerosis, and the stuffed animal "is comfort for every scary crappy thing he has fought since he was 18 months old."
