Kriste Lewis is the 40-year-old mother of two who made the squad of cheerleaders for the New Orleans Saints! Did we mention she has a debilitating kidney disease that will ultimately require dialysis and a kidney transplant?

But, the squad’s director tells the Sun-Herald, “it was a unanimous decision to put her on the team. … When she needed to blend with the others, she did, and when she needed to stand out, she did.”
