In that moment, I had a choice: walk away, or spend my entire savings to save a stranger’s life.I handed over my card. The car could wait.For days, I wrestled with doubt. Had I done the right thing?Then, a nurse’s social media post about what I’d done went viral. A car dealership saw it and called me: “Pick any car — it’s yours.”
The next day, I drove home in the exact Mustang I had dreamed of.I stopped by the little girl’s home. Her father was recovering. She ran into my arms and said, “You came back!”I smiled and looked at the car.“Turns out, sometimes giving up a dream… is how you get it back — and even more.”
