Mental health issues, like depression, can affect anyone—from children to the elderly. In this story, Dre notices his beloved grandmother is no longer herself. She’s stopped going to the park, avoids conversation, and seems lost in sadness. Rather than give up, Dre offers her small acts of kindness—flowers, little notes, drawings, even a frog—all simple gifts from the heart. Gradually, these gestures begin to lift her grandmother’s spirits. This tender story demonstrates how emotional well-being is supported not only by professionals but also by love, observation, and patient care within families.
