Here it is, true fatherly love. So that the son did not feel embarrassed and did not complex about the large scar on his head, dad made himself the same scar, but in the form of a tattoo.
When Josh posted a photo from a tattoo parlor, he captioned it: “I’m getting myself Gabe’s tattoo. It was more painful the day we got the bad news. “
The dramatic story began in March 2015, when 8-year-old Gabriel Marshall from Kansas was diagnosed with a rare brain tumor (anaplastic astrocytoma). The boy had to be operated on and underwent a course of treatment.
The treatment is now over, but Gabriel is still under medical supervision.
After the operation, the child had an impressive scar on his head, which made Gabriel feel like a “monster”. But his father Josh was not taken aback and found a way to cheer up his son and relieve him of complexes. He also shaved his head and got a tattoo on his head, completely repeating the shape and outline of his son’s scar.
“My son was very shy after the operation and felt like a monster. It made me very upset, and then I said that if people want to stare at you, then let them stare at both of us, ”said the boy’s father Josh Marshall.
