Every parent hopes their children will never be sick or hurt. It's difficult to see your little one in pain, so most parents try their very best to keep their kids safe from all harm.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard parents try, it's not possible for parents to always make sure their kids are perfectly unharmed, because kids have minds of their own and can be totally wild sometimes.
Bonita Ortega and her husband Marcus Ortega are the proud parents of a sweet 2-year-old boy named Nixon. Like a lot of toddlers, Nixon can be clumsy at times.
In early March 2017, Nixon broke his leg. Breaking a leg can be traumatizing for anyone, but it can be especially hard for little kids — they don't always understand exactly what is happening to them, so doctor visits, X-rays, and casts can be very scary.
Bonita wanted to buy something for her little boy as a get-well present, but when she went to Toys "R" Us, she started crying when she saw what was in the Cars aisle.

Bonita shared her experience on Facebook, in a post that has since gone viral on Love What Matters.
Over 33,000 people have reacted to her post and more than 5,000 people have shared her incredible story.

My two year old broke his leg earlier this week and I decided to go to ToysRUs today on lunch to get him a “Get Well” present to surprise him when I got home.
I walk up to the Cars section, anyone that knows Nixon, knows he loves Cars.
Taped to the display is an envelope that read, 'Please use this cash to buy something in honor of our son Henry who would be 4 on March 2, 2017.'
I looked around in disbelief filled with so many emotions, I immediately started to cry, it was bittersweet tears.
I was hurting for Henry's family, but so thankful that my Nixon could honor this sweet boy.
I wish I could personally thank Henry’s parents and just tell them how thankful we are for this sweet gesture.
Nixon was able to get this awesome Cars garage that he hasn't stopped playing with since opening it.
Please share in hopes that it will make it to them.
Happy Birthday, Henry!
