In a Facebook post that has been liked more than 4,000 times, Belle Geiselman, 4, is seen clutching a Mickey Mouse ring that was given to her by a couple during a recent theme park visit.

Belle was at Hollywood Studios and was chasing after her dad when she bumped into a couple. The father told Today that he apologized and the couple immediately asked if they could give Belle a gift. According to Geiselman the man then pulled a gold ring from his bag.
The couple explained that they had visited the theme park a year earlier on a Make-A-Wish Trip with their daughter and purchased two gold rings. One was for their child and the other was to gift another child someday who reminded the couple of their daughter.
At the time Geiselman told Today that he was overwhelmed with emotion. “I can only imagine how hard it was for them to be back without their daughter,” Geiselman said. “I wanted to know more, but I didn’t want to make it any more difficult for them.”
Though the father debated about catching up with the couple to share Belle’s story (she was an identical twin born at 30 weeks and required a feeding tube for the first 18 months of her life.) Ultimately that was the last they saw of the couple during their visit.
Now Geiselman and his wife Kara are trying to find the two strangers so that they can thank them properly. In the meantime, Kara wrote on Facebook, “This little gold Mickey Mouse ring will forever be kept as a priceless gift and always cherished.”
