The overwhelming response to dwarfism champion Quaden Bayles being bullied at school has seen him go from the worst to best day of his life, his mum says.

The Queensland boy has received thousands of messages of support after he was left distraught from the bullying experience this week.

“This is the effect bullying has. This is what bullying does,” his mum Yarraka Bayle said in the confronting video, which showed Quaden declaring “I want to kill myself... I just want to die right now”

Celebrities including Hugh Jackman have expressed support for the nine-year-old, while US comedian Brad Williams led an effort to raise thousands of dollars to send Quaden to Disneyland in California.

The NRL Indigenous All-Stars team has also offered for him to lead the team out in Saturday night’s game on the Gold Coast.

That gesture has made his dreams come true, his mum said.

“He said it was going from the worst day of his life to the best day of his life,” Ms Bayles told reporters on Friday.

“I think that sums it up perfectly.

“His dream is to be a footy player. That’s not going to be a reality and he knows that.

“This is the closest thing for him, to be able to get out on that field ... and run the boys out, then that’s enough for us.”

Quaden is the face of Stand Tall 4 Dwarfism, which Ms Bayles set up to raise awareness and fight against bullying.

His story received worldwide attention this week after she posted a video to Facebook showing him in tears from bullying.

While she was overwhelmed by the support, she said the challenges remain.

“It’s every parents worst nightmare, losing their babies,” she said.

“For me, that’s my reality every day. I have to prepare for the worst.

“With everything he’s going through, his medical condition, the suicide attempts are very real.

“We are losing way too many people because of bullying, because of discrimination, because of racism.

“There are way too many people suffering in silence. My heart goes out to families who have already lost someone to bullying.

“We knew so many people going through similar battles, but we didn’t know the extent of it.”
