At just five years old little Ryder Wells has been through more horror that most would experience in a lifetime.

Against all the odds the youngster from North Carolina survived a brutal attack by two rottweilers while visiting family for Thanksgiving in 2015.

He was just 21 months old when the two 100-pound dogs attacked him. He lost half of his face, his teeth were crushed, and he suffered a broken arm and punctured lung

.His family didn’t think he would survive but this little fighter made it through and has since had to endure around 50 surgeries.

Instead of being praised for getting through such a horrific attack this sweet little boy now has to endure cruel comments from children and adults.

His teaching assistant said when Ryder first started school even the adults would stare at him.

“When we go to the park, there’s a child who points and screams ‘monster’ at him before running away.” mom Brittany said, according to The Mirror newspaper.

Despite the physical and emotional scars he carries, Ryder continues to show incredible resilience and bravery in the face of such cruelty.

It is heartbreaking to think that a child who has already been through so much is now being subjected to hurtful words and stares from others. It is a reminder of the importance of teaching empathy and kindness to children from a young age.

Ryder’s story serves as a powerful reminder of the strength of the human spirit. Despite the challenges he has faced, he continues to smile and spread joy to those around him. His family has been a pillar of support for him, and their love and dedication have played a crucial role in his recovery.

As a society, we must do better to support and uplift those who have experienced trauma and adversity. It is unacceptable for anyone, especially a young child, to be labeled as a “monster” simply because of their appearance.

Ryder’s story highlights the need for greater education and awareness about the impact of words and actions on others. We must strive to create a more inclusive and compassionate world where all individuals are treated with respect and empathy.

Despite the challenges he has faced, Ryder’s spirit remains unbroken. He is a testament to the power of resilience and the human capacity for healing. We can all learn from his strength and courage in the face of adversity.

Let us stand with Ryder and others like him, offering our support and understanding in the face of ignorance and cruelty. Together, we can create a more compassionate and accepting world for all.
