John Chhan and his wife, Stella, have been the running Donut City - a doughnut shop located in Seal Beach, California - for years.
Donut City has some regular customers who flock almost every day to grab fresh doughnuts and a cup of coffee. But one day, the patrons noticed that Stella¡¯s was absent.
John shared that his wife had had an aneurysm in October. A ruptured aneurysm can result in internal bleeding and stroke. It can sometimes be fatal. So, customers figured out a way to help them.
Loyal and caring customers offered John to crowdfund his wife's treatment, but he refused.
That's when they discovered another way to help him. They decided to buy out his doughnuts every day and increase his earnings - something John couldn't refuse.
According to ABC-7, all doughnut trays were empty by 10:30 a.m.
Others are helping spread the word via newsletters and by word of mouth, convincing everyone to buy doughnuts one dozen at a time.
How absolutely heartwarming is that? In a world where malice is so common, incidents like this one restore our faith in humanity.
