    What a heartwarming story. I had a great uncle growing up that I learned many years later wasn’t actually a relative at all, but someone my great-grandma took pity on and took in. I think it used to be more common.

    What a lovely story of a selfless act of kindness and compassion given to someone in need. This seems to have enriched the lives of everyone involved. With all of the bad stuff going on in the world, it is real tonic to read about this.
