Default I just don't understand

I just got word another dad in our scout troop died. This makes four in a troop of about 15. This guy has a kid who was born with a hip dysplasia. When the kid was smaller the mother and grandmother wouldn't even let the kid get up to get the TV remote. Greg signed the boy up with our troop which specializes in backpacking. He cried every time he went hiking with us but when I suggested other areas of scouting might be better for him, the kid refused. He is well on his way to getting his hiking merit badge and he has bawled his eyes out every time he hikes. The last hike he went on I told him he was my hero. It was all because of the support of his dad. I just don't understand.
