Son Talks to Mom Only on Video Call for 7 Years, Sees Deserted House When He Finally Visits – Story of the Day

Olive had raised her son, Chris, on her own, struggling to make ends meet. But when she finally landed a well-paying job, she made sure to cover all his expenses when he went off to college. Over the years, Olive gave everything she had to support him, even selling her house to fund his business. Despite this, Chris and Olive only communicated through video calls, and he hadn’t returned home in seven years.

One day, Chris surprised his mother with an unexpected visit, but when he arrived at her old house, it was empty. A neighbor informed him that Olive had sold it and now lived in a small, run-down apartment.

Shocked and concerned, Chris confronted his mother. She revealed that she sold the house to help him and was now living frugally in a less-than-ideal neighborhood. Overwhelmed with guilt, Chris apologized for his neglect and lack of awareness. He realized how much his mother had sacrificed for him without ever asking for anything in return.

Determined to make it right, Chris and his fiancée, Rosalie, invited Olive to move closer to them. They built her an in-law suite, ensuring she was part of their lives and could enjoy being a grandmother. Over time, Chris paid back every cent his mother had given him. Most importantly, he vowed never to let Olive sacrifice for him again, finally giving her the life she deserved.
