Our military families sacrifice so much when their loved ones leave them to serve our country. In addition to missing them, there is the concern for their safety. So when these heroes come home, it’s particularly touching.
A new video showing a Navy veteran coming home to surprise her mom will really tug at your heartstrings. The mom had been recently diagnosed with breast cancer and hadn’t seen her daughter in months. She had no idea she was about to get to a special surprise! With the help of her brother, this hero was able to pull it off! All this mom’s pain melted away the moment she saw her daughter.
Her brother shared, “My sister and I had decided about March that we were going to surprise my mother with her coming home. So we had to tell my mother that she couldn’t fly to see my sister because she was working so much and didn’t have any leave time. When I picked her up from the airport, I hid her in the backseat of my car so no one saw her while we were driving home and got everyone to eat lunch together. I walked in first with my sister crouching behind me and when my mother first saw her she lost it.”
It’s so heartwarming to see military reunions, and surprise reunions are some of the best. The look of complete shock, immediately followed by immense joy, can bring an instant smile to your face.
If you support our military families and the sacrifices they make for our country, you will appreciate the video below of this Sailor surprising her mom. There is a lot of love in that room!
What a beautiful reunion for this family! There certainly were plenty of smiles to go around. It’s just what this mom needs as she continues her fight against stage 2 breast cancer. This family could use our prayers!
