Hurricane Otis hits Mexico
Arizbeth Dionicio Ambrosio was hailed for her heroic work after coming through for a desperate mother and her baby.
Ambrosio was on a rescue mission in the city of Acapulco, Mexico, which was hit by Hurricane Otis, destroying property and casualties.
She heard a desperate cry from a baby from a distance but did not bother to inspect the time, as reported by BBC News Swahili.
A little later, the lady heard the cry again, and this time, her parenting instincts kicked in, and she went to investigate.
Four-month-old baby hungry for two days
The 33-year-old met a desperate and heartbroken mother who needed dire help next to her bundle of joy.
She disclosed to Ambrosio that her four-month-old baby had not had food for two days and was crying because of hunger.
"I told her that if, since I am breastfeeding, if she wanted, I could give it to her," the officer told Mexico's N+ network.
What hurts mothers?
The mother of two took off her safety gear, carefully held the little one, and began breastfeeding the baby.
Immediately, the baby stopped crying, and the two mothers were relieved that the baby was at ease.
"It's a good feeling. It's a child - if there's one thing that hurts us as mothers, it's seeing a child in this environment," Ambrosio said.
Social media reactions
The compassion of Ambrosio moved social media users as they flocked to the comment section.
Guadalupe Lopez:
"Great action from this beautiful officer. Thank you for the work and the invaluable actions for the good of the people! ❣️."
Lucy Sanchez:
"God bless you!!! And to our brothers from Guerrero, I wish you strength and a lot of faith to advance."
Rouss Roshant Lopez:
