At just 34, Kevin received devastating news. His cancer was incurable, and he had only 12 months to live. As he processed this, he couldn’t help but reflect on what he’d missed in life. Sure, he’d opened his dream bakery and was engaged to the love of his life, but now it all felt like a ticking clock. Things unraveled further when Kevin revealed he wanted a child before he passed. His fiancée, shocked and angry, threw down her engagement ring and stormed out, refusing to spend her best years "watching him die."
Kevin felt his world shatter—he was facing his darkest days alone. But everything changed when he brought treats to a charity event for orphans. There, he noticed a little girl sitting quietly in a corner, not playing or speaking. Concerned, Kevin asked a social worker about her.

Without hesitation, Kevin said, “I want to adopt her.”
The social worker’s eyes widened in shock.😳👇 See less
