“Look, it’s not a huge deal. Obviously it’s a big thing for Deirdre. You do what you have to do.”
— Donncha O'Donnell

  • True Blue - "I think I'm posting this out of utter emotional distress ... but I need to ask if anyone wants to come to an 8 yr old boys birthday party to show him that he's loved and valued as a person," she wrote. "NO gifts are required other than the gift of friendship."

No responses came in right away, so Day thought of a last resort. She and her husband drove to the Hurst Police Department and asked whether an officer might come see her son, who has always wanted to be a policeman.

Soon after she and her husband got home, the station's entire shift showed up at her front door — with a few Hurst firefighters, too.
