I really see no reason at all why this should not be a national story. Not just a typical feel-good piece, but one that lets everyone know that not only are there people who make huge differences in people's lives, but those people changed for the better acknowledge those who made those differences.
A piece that says that some things are worth doing, even if there is no immediate gratification, and if/when it happens, it will be amazing.
Thanks once again for restoring some of my lost faith in humanity.
I'm envisioning a children's book encapsulating this, beginning with a drawing of him in class, learning to read - perhaps scowling at first just to give it authenticity for most kids - and the last in the book being the drawing of him as an adult hugging his aged teacher while she is holding the very same book. Could work. Something along the lines of "I Love You Forever," only for non-relatives.
I named my son after the king of all wild things, and I'm taking him to see the movie--just the two of us. What you have shared here will make the connection even more wonderful. Love you! C.
