This Wonderful Mom Adopted All 4 Of Her Best Friend’s Daughters After She Died Of Brain Cancer

When Elizabeth Diamond was diagnosed with stage-four brain cancer, she was worried about what might happen if she died.

Her best friend Laura Ruffino, whom she had known since 5th grade, promised to adopt the girls if anything were to happen – and when Diamond, a single mother, passed away, Ruffino fulfilled her promise.

Now, Ruffino’s family of 4 (along with her husband and two daughters) has doubled in size, and the local community in Orchard Park, NY is coming together to help them out. A YouCaring campaign has already raised more than $117,000 to help the Ruffino-Diamond family re-adjust.

Laura Ruffino promised to adopt her best friend’s daughters if she died of brain cancer.

Unfortunately, Elizabeth Diamond passed away, leaving behind her 4 wonderful girls.

Luckily, they’ve been adopted by the Ruffino-Diamond family, which has now doubled in size!

“She said if anything ever happens to me I want you to take my girls and I instantly said ok”

“As she started to weaken you can imagine the fears that I had for the girls and being without her.”

“Ten years ago I didn’t think this would be my life. But if something gets thrown at you just accept the challenge and do the best you can”

The Ruffinos have done everything they can to make the girls feel welcome!

Diamond was a caring soul, writing books about wellness and founding a non-profit wellness center.

Even the local community has pitched in to help out.

Love and true friendship personified.

An absolutely beautiful and touching act of Human Kindness ♥
