In the video, Patty tells the story of her husband Juan’s special connection with her son, Robbie, as the loving stepdad tenderly shaves his stepson’s face.
“My husband and I met when my son was six. My son has Down syndrome and is 24 years old now,” the proud mom explains with on-screen text.
“He always showed me how much he loves me by how he treats my son… They’re best friends now,” Patty continues. “How did we get so lucky?”
The emotional mom concludes, “I’m blessed to witness this incredible bond and have such an amazing man by my side.”
The video ends with Juan gently drying off Robbie’s clean-shaven face as his son smiles and offers a sweet thumbs-up.

“Kudos to your husband for showing that beautiful people are still in the world. Family isn’t always blood,” another user shared.
“It’s one thing to be a parent to your own, but it’s a whole other level to take care of kids that aren’t yours. That man has my respect,” commented another user.
“This is so sweet, made me cry. Such handsome men you have there,” wrote another user.
