Awww, this is a super sweet story of a little boy knowing just what to say and do in an adult situation when Papi is having a hard time. Very heartwarming.

Cheers!

And it's a wonderful story on so many levels of youth and age especially and the 'miracles' that can indeed happen when we join forces -a tale of love

A fine tribute to your Father here who was a fine fisherman and suffered from Parkinson's disease. It is hard to watch our loved ones suffer like this, a sensitive write, love Dolly

Poignant and uplifting--clearly and skillfully rendered from POV of child--heartwarming closer--putting your hands together--clever bit about fish story. Fine work.

What a delightful story. The times when I went fishing with my dad were always very special. I grew to love fishing so much that I made a career of it and still fish to this day. Of course this story is about so much more than fishing. Your grandfather must have been so proud of you, having been such a compassionate child. Good job on this story.
Blessings.

Tom

    Actually, I am the grandfather but I told this story through my grandson's eyes. My father was also a professional fisherman.
