Man up, last thing that made you cry

johnny utah

Be a man and admit the last thing that made you cry. For me the movie "La Bamba" when Ritchie dies, and Bob is on the bridge it always makes me tear up.

I dont remember crying in Old yeller, but the ending scene in Where the red fern grows really tore me up when the dogs died and when he reflects back years later. ( Movie and book are both great for both)

Teared up so many times during the Friday Night Lights TV series, I don't know why but I had a very visceral response to that show. Probably because I spent so much time as a coach myself. It also made me regret my life a little bit, because I still to this day feel I would be doing so many more people so much more good if I was developing high school players, rather than all the semi-pro/pro coaching I was doing.

Anyone who hasn't watched that show, I highly recommend it.

I will name the last two times. Mother died in 2007. Grandfather (who was like a father to me) in 2009.

last week. Had to put our little female dog down. She didn't quite make it to three years. Still not over it altogether.

My grandmother passed almost 2 years ago. She lived a full life, but it still sucked. Especially when I think my Grandfather could be next at his age.

R.I.P. Grandma.

Two weeks ago Friday afternoon, I got a call from my daughter that my 1.5 year old grandson was trying to get out of his crib and as my son in law was walking in the room he crawled to the top and launched himself out of it onto a tile floor. He hit his head, knocked himself out and he would not wake up. They called the helicopter to airlift him to Tampa but the weather was too bad to land. They called an ambulance and because of traffic it took them almost two hours to get there. When I got the call all I knew was that he would not wake up and he was going to have to be airlifted. The little boy who two nights before I walked around Tropicana Field with him while at a baseball game might not make it I thought.

I called my wife, told her to get home and I fell down on my knees and prayed and wept. I feared the worse. While I waited for my wife to get home for us to go the hospital, my brother in law came by and we prayed with me in the driveway. He is one of the National Leaders for the Royal Rangers program and he made a call and within minutes my grandsons name was on a prayer chain across the country. That moved me to more tears.

Heading to the Tampa Hospital we were in constant contact with my daughter who told me the baby woke up in the ambulance. They had him on a board to keep him immovable. When we got there and were finally allowed to see him, I broke down again seeing him wrapped up like a coccoon with IVs out of arms and his head bandaged. All that could move on him was his eyes and he kept looking at me to help him.

All test came back negative and after a night stay for observation he was deemed ok. Thank God. The crib came down and now he sleeps in a toddler bed.

That was the most helpless feeling that I have ever experienced and never want to experience again.

Wow. Hos I know why you would be moved by this. Very touching!
You're the only person on the site who knows.

Your story killed me. So glad he is going to be all right. I assume no lingering issues?
