- Joe Kavaluskis always loved surprising his sons. When Joe learned he would lose his nine-year battle with cancer, he arranged for a final surprise. Logan Kavaluskis, 13, had always wanted a dog, but Joe's allergies made it impossible. So Joe arranged with his wife to get Logan a puppy. "He said, 'Just promise that when I do pass, that you get Logan a puppy as soon as you can, because I know that it will bring him a lot of comfort,'" Melanie Kavaluskis told InsideEdition.com. #InsideEdition

Tugging at my heart strings
Thank you
I never knew Inside Edition could make wholesome videos.
Inside Edition warmed my heart especially since I just did something similar. 💙💙 RIP
It was that second little "really" when he first got the dog.
I wakeboard with him
That father may have saved that kid’s future by making sure his son got an emotional support friend in his time of need
Completely agree
agreed 💜
Aww agree💚
I’ve lost my emotional support friend. And nobody there to help me now in my time of need
@UCkzA-uPl9xsgYp5lg3IZGRA maybe in this particular situation, it’s exactly what he should have done. Not everyone can handle a dog, but I’m sure this kid can seeing how much he wanted one for so long. And to have that animal be a gift from his dad would make him go the extra mile to live and care for that dog to the ends of the earth.
Imagine your dads dying wish to be for you to have the one thing you couldn’t have when he was here
Okay, your comment made my hovering tears fall.
I can't stop crying because of you
But still a good comment 😭😭
My dad would never do that for me. 😔
@@narakmar6666 you’re good , my dad died after doing nothing for me , my daughter bio dad is a loser in jail 🤣
But we all have a good man or two in our lives to help take those places
@@batmama739 that’s the similar pain I’m basically in.
9 years of battling CANCER? What a strong father + husband. Rest in peace 😞
He wanted to live. He deserved that
Yeah seems smart too planning things ahead of time
Well, he may have lost his dad, but when the dad knew how much his son wanted a dog, this 13 year old gained a new friend.
Surely in heaven right now.
so no one is going to talk about how his dad passed away 5 days before his birthday? thats awful...
Dying sucked, but I’m sure he’d of chose another time if he could.
Well, you're right. But talking about what's awful kind of detracts from what is good. And that isn't a great thing for growth or healing. Remembering what was good and joyous will bring more peace, and I think that's the idea his Dad had about the dog. In the time that he knew his son would need help finding peace, his dad gave him intentional joy and something to make new memories with.
@@AuDHD99 :) yeah
It depends on how you look at it. He must have been seeing his dad suffering for years so it probably wasn't a surprise and maybe a bit of a relief. Not saying it wasn't sad tho
@@Cheolnobaka Exactly. I lost mine to brain cancer at a young age, but we did have time to get used to the idea. As you said, it doesn't stop the hurt, but it does give you time to prepare mentally
You can tell he’s a very sweet appreciative kid. Mom and Dad did a good job raising him.
Agreed 💕👍😭 😢
@Jamal Davis why do you feel the need to be a douchebag?
@@user-ki7hi3wq9t wait what did he says? His comment is deleted
Not really
Nah
Imagine your dad's last day on earth last ever wish was to make his son happy, im never taking my dad for granted ever again

@@Fabian__. same who tf needs them anyways
@@robinnool9983 feel sorry for you man.
whats a dad
I’m in tears right now I lost my dad n so I feel it 😥
Even in death his wish was selfless now that’s a man and an even better husband and father
Rest In Peace Joe
He will forever be that young boys role model in life. It's his dads love for family, for his children and making sure his son has something he will need, his puppy! No matter where he goes in life, what his father did, while alive and after he passed, will be the light that guides him into being the man his dad knew he can be.

@@ProfessionalHomosexualHater shut up
@@ProfessionalHomosexualHater why did I say that in my head
I still feel bad tho r.i.p
Don't try to Lie! You DID have tears in your eyes watching this!!!!
Man as a father I'd hate to have to leave my kids. This world can be beyond sad. He was a great dad even after he passed.
He had the most caring father, dedicating his last wish to his son. What an amazing person.
Yes why do the good die young ;-;
Have my one like to make it 1k likes
He’s a strong man. I would be so scared of dying I wouldn’t have thought about anything else. The son and that dog will be best friends. 🤞🏼
Most dads would. Lot of good fathers in this world too
Do you understand what he did?! He knew his son would miss him terribly so he gave him a dog so he won't be lonely.
I just wish my dad as much.
That’s honestly the best thing a father could before he passed away is to make his son happy.
For sure. RIP.
Bruh it hit me like screaming onions
My dad lost his mom to stomach cancer when he was just 11. Cancer is a sick thing.
Yeah And It Was Made By American Doctors And FDA And The Government... So Doctors Could Live In Multi Million Dollar Houses And Dated Hollywood Actors And Actresses And Models... While You Die.....Cuz If The Doctors Really Wanted You To Live Marijuana And Vitamins Would Be Legalized Instead Of Dangerous Pills.
@@broncosstampede494 ay man seriously do yourself a favor and take a break from the internet and conspiracy theories they can very easily make you obsessive
I mean this in as nice a way as possible
@@broncosstampede494 sir get off Facebook
My mother is beating stage 4 breast cancer and my youngest brother is only 6. He sleeps with and caries her first empty chemo box everywhere. It's like a security blanket for him. It's the sweetest but saddest thing to me.
My whole family has a history of cancer so I’m just praying nothing like that happens to me. My grandma’s first husband (my bio grandpa, dad’s dad) died when my dad was also 11 in a car crash, and her 2nd husband died due to cancer. His final wish was to live in Tennessee for the final 2 years of his life, so my grandma literally up and packed up her things and moved them both to Tennessee for his final 2 years. Cancer is definitely a sick thing and I feel so bad that my grandma had to endure that type of loss twice.
Decent kids grow up to be decent adults and a parents love doesn't end.
I can't begin to imagine the pain of losing his Dad at only thirteen.
Not to mention 5 days before his birthday.
Its really really hard i can tell you from experience. I didnt experience but my best friend my brother from another mother my older brother lost his dad at age 12. It was unreal
It’s hard but he has good support. I was unlucky to have very little support in the same situation but I can tell his family is there for him worrying and caring for him so I have faith he’ll grow up well.
My brother was 11 when our dad died. I was 22. It was the worst experience ever. Sadly, he died in an accident, so we didn't get to bond before hand. I get jealous of people that have time to say goodbye. Sigh...
yeah, my old friend killian lost his mom when he was 7:(
Why inside edition it’s too early
in the morning for me to be ugly crying
😂🤣😢😭😭😭😭
Sameeee😭😭😭
Lol foreal I teared too that's was soo sweet of him
Hahaha dude no kidding. Just woke up and now I’m crying.
Ikr I didn't expect to cry when I clicked on this video
From a woman who's father was not there and only caused trauma and heartbreak to see this real father even is death care so much just makes my heart happy 💕
Same grl same mine wasn't there and only caused that as well this makes me cry and so happy for this family and little boy wow God bless them!amazing father may his soul be at peace and happy watching his family 💙
Proof that a Father can raise his sons to love. Doesn’t make you less of a man. That kid looked like he “Knew” his dad loved him 😢🥰
I can't tell you how many kids in the psych hospital I worked at were raised to believe boys can't show any emotion and have to always be "tough", and how much that messed them up.
I respect this dad and his family
Starmannico same thing :3
yes same 😊😊
Hey i know this family hes my friend

Shame to lose such a father, but his love lives on. That kid will never forget him and treasure his last gift forever.
How could anyone give a thumbs down to such a touching story. To see the joy that puppy brought to a little boy who just lost his dad five days before. His father knew how much he wanted a dog and made a dying wish that his son should get one. Good man. RIP.
I was just gonna say the same thing!
TH-cam adds a certain amount of dislikes I believe
When he squeaked "Really??" with those tearful eyes I bawled. He is absolutely precious. God bless that little boy and his entire family. RIP to Joe

True
True dads will do whatever it takes to make his family happy. Even if he can’t be there. That’s a superhero
‘And his children will rise up and call him blessed.’
As someone who lost their dad young from cancer, this is so touching. For my dad it was a car. He got me a car at 12 years old and taught me to drive in our church parking lot because he wanted to be the one to teach me and buy my first car.
Hug your loved ones tight if you’re able to ♥️
That’s a beautiful and sad story. I’m sorry for your loss.
12? Kinda young but this is still a touching story :) What car was it?
@@Damascene_ I was almost 13 if that helps lol but yes it was very young. Definitely the only kid at school with their own car though so that was cool. It was an old 94 Honda Accord, nothing fancy.
@@Min2073 Thank you, definitely a story I can look back on and smile about :)

Mr. Peke I know you’re just trolling, but he’s made a point to make non click bait videos with a series where it’s literally based on getting to the point (under 10 minutes).
Again, know you’re trolling, and obviously don’t watch his videos, but figured I’d mention that.
Also TH-camrs gotta main coin, and sometimes click bait is necessary. :)

The dad and the dog story was already sad, but then they added HIS DAD DIED 5 DAYS BEFORE HIS BIRTHDAY!
This made me cry...that “really” whimpering sealed the deal for me. 😭😢
I lost my dad almost 12 years ago now. His dog just died last week at 13. It was like losing the final piece of hin

This made my eyes water. As a father I’m not afraid to die I know we all will but I worry about my family and will they be ok without me. I’m so gonna plan something like this if given the opportunity

My mom passed away on my 14th birthday and it was the worst experience of my life. Now I’m about to turn 19 soon and I found out my dad is starting chemo that only has a 50/50 chance of working. Always treasure your family and appreciated the little things
@@clairel4320-Ohhhh no.... I'm so sorry for your loss. I'd like to put you, your father & your family in my prayers if that's ok?? I know how hard it is to deal with multiple losses on top of one another.. Bella, my 2nd born passed away on April 28th 2010 wen she was 2months old. Then on April 28th 2012, my husband passed away EXACTLY 2yrs to the day after our daughter did.. He passed away while cuddling w/me on a recliner.. We had been 2gether since I was 12yrs old & he passed wen I was 23.. We had our 1st born son wen I had jus turned 18yrs old. Then our 2nd & 3rd children were born directly after our 1st. I'm 30yrs old now, but I had to grow up FAST.. I know ur having to as well🙏👼
My Dad passed away 1 day before my 15th birthday. That has been many years ago, I'm 42 yrs old now, but I still remember it like yesterday.
@@annalisegiovanni7032 My heart is so heavy for you. I have been with my husband since Jr. High school, I was 13 when we started dating. Now 28 yrs later we have 5 children, pregnant with #6. Our 2yr old is named Bella. I could not imagine my life without either of them or the rest of our children. I realize how blessed and fortunate I am to have a healthy family. Stories like yours serve as a reminder. I am so so sorry that you have had so much heartache in your young life :(
@@annalisegiovanni7032 I was also 18 when we had our first son.....so ironic :)
The saddest part is, is that his dad had been battling cancer for most of his son's life. He was four when his dad was diagnosed.
Means NO man has any excuse NOT to put any kids first if a cancer patient can, I guess from what Logan says, succeed in being THEE best dad on earth! Best dad in the world and a puppy...what a lucky guy Logan is...
God bless Logan , his family, and his adorable puppy.
God? You mean the same god that created cancer? That allowed this man to die? Please, don't be so pathetic. If you believe in god, it was god that killed this man, so why praise him?
Bless this child. He might have only had his dad 13 years,but he will become a good man,from his dad's teaching's!
That dog was just sitting there sniffing around not knowing why the kid was crying

That was so beautiful. A new dog/puppy can be so incredibly healing for the whole family, but most especially, for the boy who just lost his dad. Also, discovering that his dad had organized & planned to gift the puppy to him, must have made the moment so much more special. Bless you, dad.

Omg this really made me cry and I am not even a very emotional person.
That is what I'd call a super dad. Dying but his last thoughts where about his family. That really chocked me up. In a sad but happy kind of way...
idk why but when I heard “he heard he would loose his battle with cancer” broke me. not something you hear often
Actually it is something heard way *too* often.
What do you think “doctors said he had x amount of months left” means
This is what it means to succeed in life. It's not the money, the fame, or even the longevity. It's what you do for people when you're there, and the waves that keep echoing when you're not anymore...
Totally agree
