Robert Downey Jr. has come a long way since the old days. The star, now almost synonymous with his role in “Iron Man,” has made it a habit to give young fans a role model that they can look up to.

Daily Life reports that he recently went above and beyond the call of duty for a fan battling cystic fibrosis and the story will melt your heart.



Daniel is seven-years-old and suffers from cystic fibrosis. His mom, posted this photo of him on Facebook, explaining that Daniel loves Iron Man because: “he has managed to get past the bullies he faces from day to day by telling them the he too has a extra special port in his chest much like iron man has his arc reactor”.

Go ahead and take a second to pick your feelings up off the floor.

Mr. Stark here. This is for Daniel (@envy_coatings) who was having a rough day recently. When I’m in the dumps, I’ve found this little getup to be helpful. P.S. Would you like to come to the LA premiere of Captain America: Civil War as my guest? If so, have your people call my people. All the best.
