A true story:
Two high school buds in Norman, Arkansas are reminding the world about the power of friendship and how it can change lives.
The story of friends Tanner Wilson and Brandon Qualls has gained national attention and warmed hearts across social media because of Tanner’s selfless act.
Brandon, who uses a wheelchair to get around, has been using a hand-push model for years.
The chair was becoming kind of a pain for Brandon as he had to push his way down the halls from class to class around Caddo Hills High School.
“My arms would get really tired,” Brandon informed.
Tanner spent two years of savings from his job — working part-time at a local car mechanic shop — to buy Brandon an electric wheelchair last month, his mother Colleen Carmack informed.
Tanner presented the new wheelchair to Brandon in front of his classmates — which was a complete surprise for Brandon.
“They came in and my face just blew up,” Brandon told. “I was just crying everywhere. I was like, ‘Wow I can’t believe he did that for me.’
“It’s been my dream to just have one of these,” Brandon said. “And my dream came true.”
When you watch Brandon and Tanner fist bump as they walk down the halls of Caddo High, it’s obvious how tight these friends are.
But Tanner’s gift clearly went above and beyond the norm.
“He’s just been a really good friend and I wanted to do him a favor,” Tanner said. “I just felt like I needed to do it. … Brandon, he’s just always been there for me.”
Learning:
Helping one person might not change the whole world, but it could change the world for one person.
Happiness also consists in giving and in serving others…
