When one pregnant mom boarded a plane alone with her toddler, she probably anticipated it wouldn’t be an easy trip.
The last thing she ever thought was that she would find a helping hand from a complete stranger. While all other passengers on the plane tried to zone out her crying child, one man stood up to help.
Angela Byrd, another passenger, captured this incredible moment on camera and posted it on the Everything Georgia Facebook page. Byrd wrote, “On a flight back to Georgia, this man, who was a stranger to this woman, offered to help her because she was pregnant and alone on the flight and her son was upset and fussy.”
“He told her that he was a dad,” she continued. “He wanted to help her so she could rest. He walked the aisle most of the flight from Minneapolis to Atlanta comforting this woman’s son as if he was his own. I was in tears . . . because it showed me today that there are still good people out there in a world full of turmoil.”
This touched other Facebook user’s hearts just as it did Byrd, and they commented saying, “Love this. So selfless. So many people just want to relax on a flight and tune out. This man chose to put his needs aside and kindly take care of a stranger. Oh to think what the world would be like if we all made that our goal. One act of kindness a day. What a blessing he was to this Mom and her child!”
Another wrote, “Such compassion! Most people Blessed enough to have children will have moments like this. It takes a village! Instead of staring at the young mother in Walmart who’s baby is having a meltdown, give her a smile, a thumbs-up, tell her she is doing a good job, she’s got this!!! A little encouragement goes a long way!!!”
If this man’s kind act touched your heart, please SHARE it with your friends and family on Facebook!
