In 2013, a paralyzed man in Wales gave up his dream of walking again to help pay for a young boy's treatment instead. Dan Black spent years saving £20,000 for stem cell treatment, but after hearing of a five-year-old boy in a similar predicament, he donated the money to him instead. The young boy named Brecon Vaughan was born with cerebral palsy and was unable to walk unaided since birth. Just two years later, thanks to the help of Dan and others, Brecon was able to walk by himself. When Dan asked why he donated the money, he said, “I’ve had 22 years of walking before my accident whereas Brecon has never known what it was like even for 22 seconds.” “To me it wasn’t a big thing to give the money to him. If more people did that sort of thing the world would be a much nicer place"
