Hanky time-Our good hearted America........This Is When The Internet Wins

This Is When The Internet Wins - Chicks on the Right:
"Just when I start questioning humanity and believe that the Internet is a huge vortex of blech, I see a story like this, and it redeems all of the above.  
Nathen Steffel is an Ohio father who lost his child the Thursday before last.  
His sweet baby girl, Sophia, was only six weeks old, and she died after developing hepatic hemangioma, a tumor on her liver.  
She had been hooked up to so many tubes while in the hospital, her father never was able to get a picture of his daughter without those tubes.  
This is the only picture of Sophia that he had:
So, he sent out a message to people on Reddit this past Sunday and "asked users if they could help remove the tubes from a picture of Sophia using Photoshop."
People didn't just respond.  
They responded in droves.  
And he received pictures of his baby girl without the hospital tubes, with some different backgrounds and settings.  
Some even took the time to draw pictures of Sophia for her Dad and shared their experiences with Nathen. He received pictures like this one, which are absolutely breathtaking:
But he obviously got more than pictures.
"It helped knowing that others cared enough to stop whatever they were doing in their own lives to either send me a picture or just their condolences," he said.
This is when the Internet wins, y'all.  And when my faith in humanity is restored once again"
