This nurse has a beautiful smile and looks like a kind hearted person.
aw 🥺💖
And it lights up the room as well.
The part where he gets his birthday gift from his mom that has passed, drive safely, love mom. OMG 😭😭😭 I've cried so much I've got a headache. 😬
That part! 😭😭😭
You'd cry more if you had depression
@@SUGAR_XYLER can you.....stop
I cried too
That hit me hard as well.
I met this dear lady. She spoke at a women’s gathering at our church. She truly is a beautiful person inside and out.
LeeAnn , and it looks like she has a really supportive than wonderful husband and kids ... she is truly blessed .
This nurse truly is an angel. This story is beautiful and heartbreaking. Just know your mom is always with you. Two beautiful angels 👼 👼.
God bless this family
This happened to my young friend when he was 16.. he was saved from foster care by her nurse ❤️💔
I've been a nurse for years. I would never wish anyone the pain of needing a home. But I've always prayed that if anyone ever did need a home, He would choose ours to love them. ❤️
I’m definitely not tearing up over the gifts she still gives him
Stop telling tales! Didn't wanna say stop lying, just seemed inappropriate right now.
You know ur tearing up b/c we all are! U wouldn't have a ❤️ if u didn't!
Have a great & blessed day!
@@joannbowden6220 damn Joann it's called sarcasm😂
@@TheRandompaint 😆
@@joannbowden6220 Yep we all 😭😭😭😭😭
Yeah that part broke me
This is the kindest act she'll ever do in her life. I wish one day in our lives, we'd do the same in our own ways- an act of kindness that will reverberate for generations...
And no mention of the father …yet men always hate and belittle women for everything
@@jesuslover5968 you appear to be the only voice on these comments filled with hate ^^’
@@Lemmingofdoom it’s called paid bots and sheep 🐑
@@Lemmingofdoom you want to talk about hate ? i bet you are a man. Men don’t ever get held accountable they are the ones responsible for broken homes yet these same men hate single mothers, and they hate women and we are suppose to praise charity work women do while men continue to oppress women ? Appalling and disgusting
@@jesuslover5968 your making no sense at all. This really has nothing to do with men hating single moms, I’m glad the lady’s husband agrees if this is what you want to hear
I wasn’t ready for this because I’m in tears. Bless that nurse because she came in and fulfilled her roll as his second mother.
Rip to his mom. This was a great news story.
Wow, didn't expect this. You brought me to tears..... wonderful story, wonderful people.
👍💯💔💕
Yes! I'm crying too!
Here too
Damn, right in the feels. He's such a handsome young man! Good job mom's.
She personally handpicked her son's new mother, what a beautiful gift!
He is blessed to have 2 lovely mothers. I will also give thumbs up to the nurse husband stepping up to agree with the adoption. Lovely family. ☺️💜
I had a nurse like that! They are angels on earth!
ME TOO. AND YES, THEY ARE.💖💕
I'm literally crying, this is so touching. God bless them
@Nina: I know. I had to stop writing my comment because my eyes filled with tears and I couldn’t see.
Yes, God bless them!🙏😭😭
@@lilybond6485 So did I
Same here😭🤎🤎🤎
@@lilybond6485 😢 😭 😿
It's sad how many good people like her are leaving the medical field.
It is but I don't blame them with the way things have become. They are burned out and underappreciated and get the blame for things they have no control over. I don't know how they can do it.
Even the news reader was tearing up. What a beautiful, yet poignant story. God bless them all.
We NEED more of these stories..They are NEWSWORTHY. God bless our healthcare workers.
Yet no mention of the father …women always having to pick up the pieces because they never get held accountable
@@jesuslover5968 nice b8 m8
@@jesuslover5968 You are definitely bot a jesus lover. all your negative comments about men...u are clearly just a man hater. Stop blaming men. All your negativity just sounds like u have A LOT of resentment towards your father. Keep that to yourself...or just confront your own father
I remember this story. His mom would be proud.
Why am i crying so hard ???? SHE'S AMAZING AMD I LOVE HOW HIS MOM BOUGHT HIM A GIFT FOR EVERY YEAR AFTER THAT'S AN AMAZING MOM AND MOM NURSE .
Wow his mother was wonderful.
She loved and protected her son.
She really thought the nurse was his angel but his mom is the angel watching over her son and his second mommy.
Wow so touching
He’s exceptional so he couldn’t have gone to a better place. ❤️💕. If everyone was like the nurse, what an incredible world we would have. 💕💕
Connie Jackson I couldn't have said it any better 👍💯
So true, she really is amazing for doing this! ❤️❤️
Nurses are freaking angels!!!!!
I agree 💯 two of my sisters are nurses and I see the sacrifices they make for their patients daily! For sure not anyone can be a nurse only certain special kind of people with kind hearts and compassion for helping people in need.
God bless her soul for adopting him, so beautiful!
You gotta feel like them meeting was just meant to be in a way. Not by accident but plain ole FATE 💕💫
Indeed to think his mom last thoughts could of been worrisome about where her son will live and be safe, it's definitely a blessing 😭😭
A mother’s love can only be rivaled by God’s love for his children. RIP angel.
I forgot about this story. To see them not only survive but thrive is a testament to the human spirit and GOD ALMIGHTY. May GOD continually bless this nurse, this nurse's family and the little boy whose becoming a fine young man.
Absolutely beautiful this woman to stand by this lady's side going through this cancer and doesn't even know her and then adopts her child she's an angel in disguise 😇
Sad but amazing story. Absolutely happy he didn't end up in the system. He can continue with life knowing his mom is always with him, by her leaving those gifts😭💕
God must have directed his Mom's path. What a gift she gave him....a new Mom, and how hard that must have been. Blessings to his willing and adopted parents.
I cried watching this. Steve you are amazing getting these stories out! Thank you sir for your hard work in blessing us!
I had tears too.😉🌸✌🏽
Agree completely. 💕
glad to see good people still exist!!
What's a nice nurse she doing good job with her adopted son
What a great nurse to rise him. God works inysterious way. Thanks Mr. Hartman .
I can’t imagine how painful that must have been to her, to plan gifts for birthdays she knew she couldn’t be there for. Both she and his adoptive mom are wonderful people.
This is one of the most beautiful news reports I've ever heard.
I’ve spent lots of time in the ER and hospitals; nurses male or female, are the best! So caring and comforting. Makes all the difference in those times.
Omg I'm crying
I was too.
Okay, as a grown man, the tears streamed down my face when I saw that his mom bought him that gift for when he started driving.
Yes very touching and endlessly sad.
Nurses need to be more noticed. They are angels. I have friends who are nurses and I know they are very happy. They are kind and they do everything for us.
His mom would be so proud
This needs to be a movie. Such a heartwarming moment.
How beautiful and simultaneously sad
With all the bad in the news it's GREAT to see something so good come from something so tragic. That young man has two wonderful moms and angels in his life.
God bless you all.
Thank you for adopting this child
I have the biggest knot in my throat. Bless this boy and his new family 🙏🏼
Heartwarming lovely story. Beautiful women x
His mom and the nurse are truly both angels. They must be so proud to have a son like him. There are still good in this world after all.
God bless. Praying for her family and loved ones and her son and her nurse. What a loving and kind thing that nurse did.
Both mothers are Angels and the son is so lucky too have them....
what a wonderful woman! stories like this are needed especially right now
What a gorgeous young man, talented, smart. What a loving Mom on earth and what a loving Mom in heaven. God bless you.
I cried tears of joy. This story is testament to the capacity of pure love in a society filled with so hate for no reason. Love trumps Hate.
What a rare sweet soul his lady has.
His mom was sure happy in heaven now watching them and guiding him. Blessings to this wonderful family.
I wish for this wonderful woman and her family the best. It was the right decision.
Seldom do you hear stories like this. So thankful Wesly's mother found a wonderful woman willing & able to raise her son when the time came.
This is absolutely heartbreaking and heartwarming. Life is brutal, but when people are there to pick up your pieces, it makes it a little easier. Rest in peace. Wish this family all the best.
There are some really amazing people in the world and both these women are two of them. May Trisha rest in the sweetest of peace.
His mom is resting easy I’m sure of it. Her soul just felt the greatness of that nurses soul.
His new mom is an angel. A big salute and so much respect for her and her family members. He is so well raised. God bless her family 😘
This is the sweetest story ever told.
This is one of the best things i have heard all my life That Nurse is so AMAZING. & i hope she gets blessed by GOD with great things.
The keychain took me out and he looks just like his mom so she’ll never be forgotten. There are those nurses that go over and beyond. A lot are better than doctors it’s their empathy that makes the good ones awesome. Stay blessed and healthy
1:55 - omg I literally just started BAWLING 😭 this is just a part of why I chose my profession - I love being a RN.
Omg I just turned 16 :( losing my mom at a young age would be something I can’t get over and to still get straight A’s that’s amazing brother! I don’t even know how to drive yet 😂
Beautiful story
Two wonderful mothers. Hearts of gold. I can’t say it any better Norah. Wow this is such an inspiring story. Wishing them all the best.
Oh geez; I’m sitting here crying. Those two were supposed to meet.
That had to be the hardest thing Mom ever asked, and to a stranger.
Wesley has two Moms who love him so much.
Nurses do not get the recognition they deserve by doing so much! My deepest respect and love for each and one nurse!!!
A healer at heart. Soo sweet
Wow this was unbelievably touching. That feeling of her meeting an angel is definitely the case here. No doubt about that. It really broke my heart when it got to the gifts part. That's a mother who loved and loves her son unconditionally
Omg 😭😭 what an amazing story!
She is a real angel
Well I'm gone. God bless them all. That lady just radiates goodness.
A walking angel among us🙏🏼
Mothers are so wonderful. I'm so happy mine is still by my side 🥰
Who wouldn't want to be his mother?😭Still he found the best among angels. Bless them!✨
A woman like her saying "he has a kind heart"? That is one rock concert of a compliment.
I think we should help him get a car. What do you all think about it? Or help with his college.
This was the best news story I’ve seen today. God is mighty to save! What lovely, wonderful women, thankful to know this boy is growing up, loved and not alone but growing up/being raised by someone who had a relationship with his mom.
That is a loving, caring, thoughtful woman (his biological mom) to buy him gifts before passing to keep her memory alive! 🙏🏻
Nurses are angels, I cant say enough good things about them. ICU nurses made me feel really cared for.
I am a retired emergency room technician and have nothing but respect for nurses. They go above and beyond. As amazing as they are, this is far beyond anything I have ever seen. Nurses will never fail to amaze me. One reason why part of my heart will always be in that er.
Beautifully heart-wrenching but in such a good way.
I needed that bright light amongst all the dark happening 🥲
And what a wonderful angel he has in his life now. 💕🕊️
Steve Hartman always brings me to tears 😭
Angels are placed in our paths at the right time on purpose 💗 glad to see he is being raised in a loving home. Prayers to the entire family.
Wow! What an amazing story. Beautiful Angels with warmest hearts. Blessings to this wonderful family. 💚❤
She is such a great human being....no words are coming to praise her kindness ...The boy is also same. ...like her...God will bless both of you... 🇮🇳Love from India
his mom prepared a birthday gift for her son each year was so heartwarming I cried annd thought of an anime where a teminaly ill mother wrote a letter for her daughter each birthday for 21 years.
My heart is filled with warmth seeing such a beautiful bonding and the fact that good and kind people still exist!! God bless them abundantly❤ I'm so happy😇
This makes my ❤️ so happy for everyone involved!(especially the mother)
This nurse is not only an angel she is a saint❤❤ and the young man,wesley is blessed❤❤
Great family for taking him in and not just taking him in, making him part of the family.
Profoundly touching! God bless them!
8 years. Been without mom as long as he was with her wow
Cancer nurses are a rare and special breed.
I lost my daughter to cancer just a few months ago. I met angels too. Now they are family.
Angels... God given... blessings... I am so grateful they took good care of her... and when in hospice... we met more.
I'm so sincerely sorry this young man lost his mama... but I'm so rejoicing that he found another ready to open her heart and home.
God continue to bless this family. Wrap them in your love and peace. Amen
Stories like this makes you believe they is still hope for mankind after all.
ah what a lovely story! Thank you Trisha ;) God bless you both! Doing the right thing feels soooooo good! I am sure God had His hand in this!
