NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — A Tennessee man did something special to cheer his mom up during her stay at a Nashville hospital during a recent snowstorm.

On Tuesday night, Nelson Brothers wanted to encourage his mother, Amy, who is a patient at TriStar Summit Medical Center. According to him, she was feeling “down and out.”

Brothers carved out a message in the snow on the grass below his mom’s eighth-floor room.

“I said to myself, ‘snow is on the ground, mom loves snow’ and I gotta do something to cheer her up. I just went down there and realized I could write something universal that would hopefully cheer up other patients too, maybe put a smile on someone’s face and do my good deed for the day,” explained Brothers in a release.

The hospital said Nelson is a welder who often works with the gas company and helps lots of people.

“I hope it cheered up a whole lot of people. I wrote it at two different angles. Mom loves it, anything to do with snow. In a way, we are trying to help others. A lot of people run around in this rat race and people just need help. I would hope we are always willing and would help others. Saying I love you is another way we can take care of each other,” said Nelson. “The nurses and other patients seem to be enjoying it.”
