Unfortunate accidents often breed good opportunities. My brother Chris was T-boned on his bicycle by some dillweed on a cell phone driving his car who ran a red light last week. Fortunately, all Chris suffered was a broken patella (kneecap). But that led to a full leg cast which means he can't bend his leg. My parents cancelled a trip to Canada for my cousin's wedding and flew to Seattle to help out my brother.
This led to the opportunity for my dad (Pappy) to take the train from Seattle to Portland to visit his new granddaughter. He was very sweet with her (a side not seen too often), but truly wonderful. You could tell he was instantly in love with an 8 lb young lady. He even carried her in the Baby Bjorn on a hike.
