This is the father-son bond of Dick and Rick Hoyt. From the time Rick was born, Dick has strived to give him as normal a life as possible.

Rick was born in 1962 with a brain disorder. His umbilical cord coiled around his neck and cut off oxygen to his brain. Dick and his wife, Judy, were told that there would be no hope for their child's development.
