A young woman seeking advice on a dress for her upcoming school formal received an unexpected response after thinking she sent photos to a friend.
Student Sydney Uselton meant to share images of her wearing the gown to a peer, but instead they ended up with Tennessee man Tony Wood.
What happened next was a completely unpredictable chain of events.
A young woman who was seeking fashion advice for an upcoming formal dress, received this unexpected reply (pictured) when she sent the photo of the dress to a Tennessee father of six
Tony Wood, a father-of-six, received the text and replied with a photo of his children to deliver their verdict on the dress.
‘My wife isn’t home so I couldn’t get her opinion,’ Tony said.
‘But the kids and I think you look stunning in your dress!’
Tony Wood received the text from Sydney Uselton, a student also from Tennessee, and replied with a photo of his children giving a ‘thumbs up’ (pictured) to deliver their verdict on the dress
Tony then attached a photo of five of his children giving a ‘thumbs up’, but missing from the photo was his four-year-old son Kaizler.
The photo found its way to Twitter and brought attention to the Wood family’s Facebook and GoFundMe page.
Observant twitter users noticed Kaizler was missing from the photo because he was in hospital undergoing chemotherapy to treat leukaemia.
The GoFundMe page had been set up to raise funds for the cancer treatment.
Kaizler was diagnosed with Pre-B Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in late 2015.

Tony was stunned by the support the family received from strangers.
‘Wow. This is nuts! It’s crazy!,’ he said on his Facebook page.

‘I decided, ‘Let’s make this person’s day.’ So I had the kids thumbs up her and told her she looked stunning in her dress. Now, all of the sudden, my kids are Twitter famous! Pretty cool!,’ he wrote.
‘It’s a bigger blessing than anyone could ever know’.
‘I think the internet is going to make sure you guys can focus on what matters! Hope he recovers quickly and fully,’ one donor wrote.
‘Proof that a little act of kindness can reap bigger acts of kindness,’ wrote another.
