When you’re a parent and your child gets sick, there can be an overwhelming sense of helplessness that comes through, especially when their illness comes out of nowhere and you have no idea what to do to help them.
Tony and Kylie Cravens lived a quiet but happy life in Georgetown, Illinois, with their adorable 3-year-old daughter, Lydia. The couple owned a small hardware store that had been passed down in their family for nearly eight decades.
The two met after Kylie moved to town after finishing high school. She needed to buy something from the hardware store, and that’s where she met Tony. The pair quickly fell head over heels in love.
The couple had a short courtship followed by a heartwarming engagement and a small wedding surrounded by their loved ones. Soon after their wedding, Kylie discovered she was pregnant, and they welcomed little Lydia into their lives.
When Lydia came into the couple’s lives, she became their main priority. Lydia was an incredibly thoughtful and kind little girl, and her parents had no qualms about giving her everything she ever wanted, including books, games, and toys.
