“He kinda held onto my hand and, as I left he said, ‘Could you watch a movie with me?’” Mike recalled.

Mike had to leave for work so he had to decline but he did promise Ronnie he’d be back that evening to watch a movie together. Ronnie was on a lot of painkillers and medication, but he understood Mike so he agreed before going back to sleep.

Mike and his wife had plans of going out as a couple but he called her to ask if she wanted to change their plans.

“I said, ‘Hey, instead of doing date night, do you mind if we go watch a movie with this kid?’” he said.

Danyel, Mike’s wife, felt an instant connection upon meeting the young boy.

I had already known that I would want to take Ronnie home with us starting that night,” she said.
