Warning: emotional roller coaster ahead.
Martyn Hett is in the running for son of the year, having done the sweetest thing EVER for his lovely mum.
A few weeks back, Martyn texted his mum to see how her day was going... like the wonderful so that he is.
My mum has set up her own stall at a craft fair and has messaged me to say she hasn't sold anything yet and my heart is breaking pic.twitter.com/cdzHn77pM5

Martyn's mum, Figen Murray,was working at a craft fair, selling her hand knitted items.
“She came back to me saying that she was feeling a bit sad because nobody was buying her stuff,” he told Buzzfeed.
What a beautiful end to this story I'm weeping. KEEP THE DREAM ALIVE HERE >> https://t.co/wjSvW7aX4i pic.twitter.com/wnHpNdPq0i

Martyn was upset for his mum, so he tweeted a picture of her stall, explaining to his 4500 followers that his mum was having no luck selling her products.
Soon after, the post went viral, and Martyn's mum was selling all of her items through her Depop store.
Met up with me mam for the first time since her viral fame. She's stocked up on materials and has had a very busy weekend knitting pic.twitter.com/fCO0fqoVnh

“I’ve found the whole thing rather hilarious. I popped over at the weekend to have lunch with her and she’d restocked her materials” Martyn explained.
Figen has since completely sold out, and is now working on new products for her growing fanbase.
What a truly uplifting story!
