Teenagers Wake Up At 4am To Shovel Neighbor’s Driveway Before Her Dialysis

Any parent of teenagers knows how hard it is to get them out of bed in the morning.

Teenagers love sleeping in on weekends, which is why it has come as such a welcome surprise that a story is going viral about a group of teenage boys who got up at 4:30am to shovel snow for a neighbor in need.

Brian and Patrick Lanigan are students at Parsippany High School in New Jersey, and they live next-door to an elderly woman who depends on ambulance transportation to get her to the hospital so that she can get her dialysis treatments.

Brian had shoveled the neighbor’s driveway the week before so that she could go to treatment, but when the brothers learned that a snowstorm was coming overnight, they knew they needed to clear her driveway so that the ambulance could pick her up at 6am.

Patrick started calling up his friends asking if they would be willing to help him out, and at 4:30am the next morning, four of them showed up with shovels in hand! After just thirty minutes of work, they had completely cleared the woman’s driveway.

Brian and Patrick’s father snapped a photo of the “snow angels” and posted it to Twitter, where it quickly went viral. People all over the globe have been praising the boys for their neighborly kindness!

Teenagers often get a bad rap, which is why it’s so refreshing to see a group of young boys doing something so generous for their neighbor. We need more compassionate people like them in the world!

MY DAUGHTER SWITCHED SEATS MID-FLIGHT—AND I FOUND OUT WHY TOO LATE It was supposed to be a quiet flight. Just me and my daughter, Reyna, heading to Phoenix to see my sister. I’d packed snacks, downloaded a few cartoons on the iPad, and even brought her unicorn plushie that she won’t sleep without. We boarded early, settled into our seats—me by the window, Reyna in the middle. I had just started zoning out, watching the tarmac, when I realized she was no longer beside me. I turned my head and there she was, squished in next to a man across the aisle, looking up at him like she knew him. “Reyna,” I said, trying to keep my voice calm. “Come back over here, baby.” She turned to me with the most serious face I’ve ever seen on a four-year-old and said, “No, I wanna sit with Grandpa.” I laughed awkwardly. “Sweetie, that’s not Grandpa.” The man looked just as confused as I was. “I’m sorry,” he said, glancing between us. “I’ve never met her before.” But Reyna didn’t budge. She grabbed the man’s arm with both hands and leaned in like she was guarding him. “She knows me,” she insisted. “You’re Grandpa Mike.” My stomach dropped. Not because I recognized the guy—he was a stranger to me—but because of the name. Mike. That’s my dad’s name. The dad who left when I was seven. The one Reyna’s never met. The one I never talk about. I tried to laugh it off again, but something about the way Reyna kept staring at him made my chest tighten. The man looked just as shaken as I felt. Then he said something I didn’t expect.⬇️ Continue reading in the first comment 👇
