When a man came in and give gave her $2,000, the woman burst into tears. At this moment, the whole news crew came in and surprised her with a box containing dollars.
Unconditional kindness
A hotel room was also paid for Jessica close to where her husband was getting treatment for his cancer.
She said:
“I had no idea, I thought it was just me and my family out there trying to do this.”
It should be noted that her husband later lost the battle with the illness as he passed away.
Another kind act
Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh earlier reported that a man's prayer was answered as a stranger, Juan Gonzales, who is also the owner of ThatWasEpic YouTube channel paid off his house rent.
The kind giver knocked on a man’s door and asked how much his rent was. When he mentioned the amount, Juan dipped his hand into his pocket and gave him $1,200 to cover the cost.
When the man got the cash in his hands, he was surprised as he stood still for many seconds. When he would speak, he asked Juan:
"Are you an angel?"
