Two minutes. Two minutes of your life might be all it takes to change this little boy's whole world and give him his dad back. I try not to beg too much... but I am pleading with you to watch this...

A boy sent a letter to President Trump, writing after his father was placed on a waiting list to get a new kidney, that boy recived a touching response from President Trump! “My dad has been sick for a long time. I want him to get better, so he can get a job again so we can play,” the child continued. “My mom just left, so if my dad gets better, she might come back. … Please help my dad for Christmas. That’s all I want for Christmas, and maybe one toy.”

   Putnam’s grandmother,  who notified the dad and boy about the letter said, "I really thought it’s probably just a canned picture of him with some sort of canned response,” Fore’s grandmother said, describing the moment the family received the letter from the White House. “When we opened it, I was just in awe. As busy as presidents are, he took the time to write to an 8-year-old that has such a heart for his dad.”

Trump wrote:
Dear Fore,

Thank you for sharing your story with me. I am so sorry to hear that your dad is going through a difficult time. It is clear that you care so much for him. I have shared your letter with my staff, and they are working to see what help they can provide.

I can tell that you are a brave young man with a big heart. I admire your determination to make sure your dad has the support and resources he needs to feel better. I hope you know how much joy and encouragement you already bring to him.

Mrs. Trump and I will keep you and your dad in our thoughts and prayers.
