A last wish of a father

[PlanA]

I have found this news article on internet, probably for many of you it's nothing important, but it made my eyes watery and gave me hope that there are still nice & helpful people on the internet. Anyway the article:

A father has been overwhelmed by internet users' responses to his request for someone to digitally remove the medical tubes from the only photographs he has of his late baby daughter Sophia.

Nathan Steffel's appeal, posted to Reddit at the weekend, read: "My daughter recently passed away after a long battle in the children's hospital. Since she was in the hospital her whole life we never were able to get a photo without all her tubes. Can someone remove the tubes from this photo?"

The Ohio father did not anticipate the speed, scale and generosity of the response.

The highest-rated reply, posted by Reddit user Funkybrewster, came with the comment: "This is super late but I really wanted to help out too. Here's my attempt. I hope I didn't overdo it on the color correction."

Responding to the amount and quality of digitally-enhanced pictures he received, the Nathan Steffel said: "This is really amazing. Everyone you have made my day.

"All I wanted was a nice picture. What I received was a lot of love and support from a bunch of strangers. A long with a lot of great photos, drawings and paintings. Thanks everyone!"

Reading this made me kind of emotional. Rest in peace to this little angel, and my heart goes out to her family - especially her parents.
