Kim Clijsters visits Royal Brisbane Children's Hospital

Kim Clijsters took time out before playing the Brisbane International tournament in Australia to help bring some joy to kids suffering with cancer.

Boy, I can only imagine how emotionally draining this day would have been for her (especially considering she has a little girl who's around the same age as many of these kids).

Stories like this really tug at the heart, and at the same time put life into perspective.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Well, these pics say so much about what a great mom Kim is. Jada is one lucky little girl.
