Dad gets in shape to save his daughter

I'm very happy that the transplant was a success for the daughter. :)

For a 35-year-old man 20 miles per week is good but it isn't extraordinary.

It could had been very extraordinary to this dad to run that much.

It is extraordinary if he wasn't physical one day in his life prior to that. It's a real testament to a father's love for his child. What a wonderful story.

That is how I feel too , the dad obviously was not working out a lot and to run that far was a good work out of him.
 
I applaud the father's effort to make things better for his daughter and he succeeded. That is a example of a "Father of the Year" award, he goes beyond himself to save his own daughter.

It may not be extraordinary but he did his efforts that's all it counts as not everyone is able to do this.
 
that great story....if in any parents power most of us would donate something,i would
 
I applaud what this father did for his daughter. :)

By pointing out to Derek that 20 miles per week for a 35-year-old man isn't an astounding number of miles I don't take away from the fact that the dad's motivation was to save his daughter. That was the point. The dad also changed his eating habits. It was the dad's dedication, not the number of miles, that was important.

Both my parents died of liver disease, so I fully understand how precious was the gift that the father gave his daughter.
