Why I want to be a Child Life Specialist

My brother has Batten's Disease which is a very rare genetic disease. Fortunately, he has a different type of the disease so it hasn't affected him like it's supposed to. That may sound bad but instead of him supposed to pass away by 10 like most people affected by this disease, he is 21 years old and is doing pretty good.
I want to become a child life specialist because I love helping the disabled. I wanted to be a nurse but a child life specialist is just like a nurse without having to do the gross stuff and all I have to do is make kids happy and make sure them and their families know what's going on.
