Mum desperate to find and thank ‘kind strangers’ who paid for her family meal after hearing her son, two, had leukaemia
A MUM is desperate to find the "kind strangers" who paid for her family meal after hearing her two-year-old son had leukaemia.
Sarah-Jane Fryc, from Australia, was dining out with her three children and a friend when a couple and their daughter politely asked what was wrong Eden.
Speaking toshe explained: "They were sitting across from us and he glanced over and asked what had happened to Eden – he has a feeding tube and not much hair – so I replied explaining he has leukaemia."
The mum-of-three said that she was speaking to the family for a while and mentioned how they'd spent the last year away from home while Eden received treatment from the children’s hospital in Sydney.
It wasn't until Sarah's friend got up to pay for the meals that they'd realised the family had paid for the lot when they left the restaurant 15 minutes earlier.
“They left about 15 minutes before us and while I was feeding one of my twin daughters, my friend went to the counter to pay for our meals,” she revealed.
And added: “Thank you to those kind people. After a sh*tty year it was really what I needed.”
The post racked up almost 10k "likes" and hundreds of comments from people equally stunned by the thoughtful gesture.
“That’s so heart-warming!” one person commented.
“Wishing you lots of luck in the future and hoping he beats his fight against leukaemia,” chimed in another.
“How lovely and what a gorgeous son you have. I wish you all the best for the future,” added one more.
Sarah added that Eden is currently in remission and doing much better.
