At that time I was working as a researcher in the same where the husband would be going for his operation, I told her to set down my phone number and me to let me know when he was there. She phoned a few weeks later as and told me that her husband was admitted to the hospital and waiting. I told her that I would go and cheek on him every day when I was at . I thought that if it was my dad, I would do the same, so I was determined to keep with them. Weeks turned into months and it just became my to see them and keep track of how things were going before, during and after the heart operation.
Sometimes I’d bring a for him to read, or some food that we would together. As time went by, it seemed like I became part of the . Even after the husband returned from the hospital, we still often each other on holidays. Now, ten years later, I have my own .
Since our parents don’t close by, this couple has become my son’s “local” grandparents. My wife and I often feel truly to have this couple as our “local” parents! Sometimes family comes out of the most unexpected place.
