It's incredible how one kind gesture has the potential to make a person's Christmas.
We’re fully bawling! And when you watch the video below you won’t blame us – it’s a tearjerker, but in a good way, we promise.
Samantha is a young single mum to twins Melody and Zoey, now seven. Melody has cerebral palsy and can’t walk on her own so when her mum was nominated for a special surprise, Melody was given an incredible gift to help her walk for the first time.
Village Media's 12 Days of Christmas Random Acts of Kindness is a programme where deserving people are nominated for a Christmas miracle. Nominated by Samantha’s mum, the programme's film crew arrived at Samantha’s home to surprise her with a walking aid called an Upsee, which when attached to an adult allows a child to walk with them.
Samantha had wanted one for a long time for Melody so when she sees it she… actually, you know what? We’ll let you see for herself. Such an incredible reaction!
We adore Melody’s reaction too: “I want to run mom!” So, so sweet.
