"Tonight we took our little boy to McDonald’s for his tea and we sat inside. As we were eating, a lovely guy came in wearing his ‘air ambulance paramedic' uniform.
"He ordered his tea and as he was waiting for his order, a lovely lady with her child went up to him and insisted he took some money from her. She thanked him for all he does and really wanted to buy his tea.
"It was just so lovely to see how much he was appreciated. Well done to the lady and child. I have no idea who you are, but it was so so nice of you. Paramedics really are true heroes."
People flooded the comments with similar words. One person said: "How lovely. He'll remember that act of kindness always."
Another person wrote: "Such a lovely gesture, especially when alot of people are struggling with money themselves. Paramedics are bloody marvelous."
