ABC News reports, Miyah Washington, 12, was building a snowman by herself when Chris Blanding of the Richland County of South Carolina, Sheriff's Office stopped his patrol car and offered to help.
"I just thought that was so awesome that he would actually take the time out of his day and help [a] little kid in her yard," Miyah's mom DaVida Washington told ABC News today. "I thought it was pretty cool and she did too, she was very excited."
Washington, 39, a resident of Columbia, South Carolina, was diagnosed with breast cancer August 2016. She was fighting a cold on March 12 and was resting inside her home when her daughter, Miyah, went to play outside.
