A man decides to adopt a little child with Down syndrome who is rejected by everyone after losing his family. Years later, he receives some shocking news from a lawyer.
David paced nervously up and down the hospital waiting room. His brother Jack begged him to slow down, Dave. No one had ever given birth before, you would think!
David smiled. “I get it,” he said. “I’m just so nervous! My dream has always been to become a father!
Jack grinned and patted his brother on the back. “Prepare to become a father, my man!” That’s when the doctor came in and walked over to David. David just knew that he couldn’t laugh because of something in his face.
The doctor said it was one of those one-in-a-million flukes, but it was also a rare accident that killed Rita and their child. David nodded appropriately and listened to him intently.
He didn’t even weep, but his knees just crumpled when he tried to walk. Jack had to hold his brother up while sobbing and carry him home like a kid.
Dave was given access to Sam’s $1.2 million trust fund by the lawyer, who assured him that it would secure his son’s future in line with the desires of his biological father.
Dave wondered if the folks who had turned Sam away would have turned away the money if they had known about them! Sam’s original father had been right to conceal his money so that his child could be loved for himself.
