What happens when you are a widower and your only daughter tells you that you will be a grandfather

In these days when you turn on the news and there seems to be no good, I wanted to bring you this short but emotional video which has already become viral when it has been seen by more than 8 million people since it was published on April 19.

In the video only he appears, a man whose wife died 20 years ago he received the news that he was going to be a grandfather from his only daughter.

At first he seems not to know what the matter is about. A box, a pacifier, a camera that records him and he without capturing the hint. Then read the message and the joy becomes evident, followed by the emotion. Emotion for fulfilling a wish he had or perhaps emotion for remembering his wife, in those moments of life that you would like to live with those who are gone.

Whatever the reason, surely more than one and one are now with the tear sticking out, and that is that the arrival of a baby is cause for happiness and hope. A new life that will come, with its innocence, its purity, its laughter and its games.

As Jessica Hickey explains, her daughter and author of the video:

I told my dad that he is going to be a grandfather. I am his only daughter, my mother passed away 20 years ago and he had asked us for grandchildren since our wedding day. I think he is happy.
