With the bustling holiday season in full gear, most of us are rushing to buy everything we need for the big day.
It’s a costly time of year, and the stress may put even more burden on families who are already fighting to maintain a roof over their heads.
The Crow family had been through a series of tribulations, beginning with dad Brad’s leg being severed after a mishap while building on their dream house.
As a result he was compelled to take a year off work leaving his wife as the main breadwinner working as a school bus driver.
As if this wasn’t enough hardship, the couple and their two adopted kids were forced to live in a freezing camp trailer inside a store while plans to build their dream house were put on hold.
Life was difficult for the Crow family of Idaho until a Secret Santa arrived one day with a gift that would change their life in ways they never dreamed.
Brad was 14 years old when he was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, a rare bone cancer that required rigorous rounds of chemotherapy and radiation.
In addition, one of his leg bones had to be removed and replaced with cadaver bone.
In 2018, Brad and his wife Erica began construction on their own dream house, but their plans were unexpectedly stopped when Brad shattered his leg.
The injuries necessitated surgery, and as a result, he acquired a staph infection and nearly died. Brad’s leg had to be amputated.
After that, they discovered he had another condition and needed his hip replaced, Erica told.
It was a challenge that their family couldn’t overlook, so Erica’s sister phoned their local television station and asked for assistance for the pair through the Secret Santa program.
Secret Santa, is a genuine individual who desires to remain unknown and wishes to assist as many individuals as possible.
Local families in need are given a portion of a half-million dollars thanks to the support of the news station.
The Crow family got a life-changing gift of $50,000 for home upgrades and a year’s worth of health insurance.
In the video below, you can see their beautiful response as the pair is awarded by Secret Santa.
