    A mum was touched when a stranger she met at the beach comforted her by rooting for her premature son with a sweet gesture.

     

    Maggie Wright, from the US, explained that her “miracle” son Noah was born via emergency caesarean at 29 weeks and is currently in a neonatal intensive care unit.

     

    As we were heading out the door, a lady rushed up to us, handing me a bag with a stuffed animal sea turtle. She caught me off guard and said ‘My son came to us when he was tiny and weak, and now he is big and strong. Noah will get there, too.

     

    “It is something beautiful that he will get to carry with him for the rest of his life. The stuffed animal is a great reminder of her kindness. Her actions and words will never be forgotten by me and my husband.

     

    “It just goes to show how even the smallest gestures can make a huge impact. And this was no small gesture.”
