I hope that when you’re reading this story you have some tissues to hand because you’re going to need them; I really cried real tears for this little boy and you will too!
This lovely little boy, called Leland Shoemake, wanted his mommy and daddy to have this lovely sweet message from him before his time came to leave this world.
At only the tender age of six-years-old this little boy died of his condition on September 25th, he was undergoing treatment for Balamuthia mandrillaris, a brain-eating amoeba.
His parents returned home without their son to find a note, it was special and it’s something that they will treasure and cherish for all their days!
His mom was in his room, she was organizing and preparing for the funeral, it was Tim who found the note, it was in their living room in a place that he liked to draw and do art.
Time burst into tears as soon as he set his eyes on the note, he ran towards his wife, keen to show her the note he had found…
The note simply ready this:
“Still with you. Thank you, mom and dad. Love mom and dad.”
Amber said:
“To say I lost it was an understatement …We cried together for the longest time.”
Their little boy frequently wrote notes to them, and pictures too, but this one was really so much more special than any of the others, they decided to frame it and have it on the wall in the living room.

Mom says in her Facebook past that Leland was a clever and very curious little boy!Amber wrote about him:
“He knew his abc’s, numbers, colors, shapes and 20 sight words by the time he was a year old. He was our little nerd and we loved that about him. He loved school and loved to learn. He loved the history channel, the weather channel, documentaries and anything about history …He had a hunger for learning.”
Leland wasn’t just a clever little boy, he also was really sociable too and enjoyed talking with his parents and other people too, every single person who came into contact with him recognized his lovely kind personality, his parents even made new friends because of him.
He was just a really lovely child, but taken way too soon, before he flourished!
This note he left behind, it was simply beautiful, something that everyone should see, words are really not enough to describe what it means to any parent to find something like this in these circumstances.
Amber said about Leland:
“He was our little nerd and we loved that about him. He loved school and loved to learn.”
“He loved the history channel, the weather channel, documentaries and anything about history.”
“He loved ships like the Titanic and learning about things like WWII. He was perfect. His favorite movie was jaws.”
“His favorite director was Steven Spielberg. And his favorite actor was Adam Sandler.”
“He loved his brother and his family so much. He was the life of every party. His smile could light up a city.”
“He was the smartest, most caring, loving little boy there ever was.”
This little boy will be sadly missed by all that knew him, his parents especially and we send our love and prayers to him!

My Brother Kicked Our Grandma out Because She Had No Money Left – She Taught Him a Lesson He Will Never Forget
This story paints such a beautiful picture of resilience and the importance of standing up for family, regardless of the challenges. Eleanor’s journey from feeling unwanted to becoming an accomplished artist and finding her voice again is incredibly inspiring. Her refusal to let Paul’s materialistic view of her worth define her, along with Rachel’s unwavering support, highlights how powerful it is to nurture each other’s dreams and passions, even when others don’t see the value.
Paul’s remorse comes too late, showing that treating family as an obligation or expecting them to “prove their worth” can lead to irreversible consequences. It’s a lesson on how our actions, motivated by compassion or greed, shape not only our relationships but also our own growth. Eleanor’s final rejection of Paul’s belated apology is a powerful message about self-respect and knowing your worth, independent of anyone else’s validation.
Ultimately, Eleanor found her true “family” in those who saw and appreciated her for who she was, not what she could bring to the table. Her story is a tribute to the idea that family isn’t just about blood but about love, support, and respect—the very things that enrich our lives beyond material wealth.
The added note about another story with a similar theme promises another thought-provoking read, exploring family dynamics and boundaries.
