Prom was coming up, but I could not bring myself to care. I use a wheelchair, I did not have a date, and I felt stuck in every way. Surgery could change things, but we did not have the money.
I figured I would skip prom. Then my dad, the loser everyone wrote off, told me he was taking me. I did not expect what happened next… We went. People loved him! He even got me out on the dance floor!
The next day, there was a package in our mailbox. Inside was a CHECK FOR 10,000 DOLLARS and a card that said “DAD OF THE YEAR.”
My dad looked at me and whispered, “I think I know who sent this.”
