Many years ago, a fireman named Mike Hughes saved nine-month-old Danielle Davison from a fire at her home. But what is already an uplifting story doesn’t end on just this happy note alone.
’When we arrived, a large part of the house was already engulfed in flames. I found Danielle curled up in her crib in the bedroom’, Mike recalls.
A few years later, he was curious to know what had happened to the child he had saved that year. He messaged her on Facebook after finding her there: “I think I once pulled you out of a fire when you were still a very little girl”. They continued to talk after that, and Mike became a second father to Danielle.
17 years after the fire at her home, Danielle invited Mike to her graduation ceremony, as her one-time savior and close friend.
Mike cried when he heard Danielle’s speech at the ceremony: “Mike’s presence here is really important to me. I always cry from happiness when I think about how everything could have been so different. I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for you.”
