After a tough week in hospital with her nine week old son, the last thing this Mum needed was to discover she had been issued with a parking ticket whilst in the hospital with her son. However this frustration soon turned to surprise when a generous passerby noticed the parking ticket on the car and decided to pay it for this tired and worried Mum.

This Mum explains:
“We were discharged today and as I walked to my car I noticed that I had a parking ticket. After those days in hospital, a parking ticket was one more thing that I didn’t need. Well to my surprise, when I opened the envelope there was a note from a lovely lady named Laura.I hope that Laura sees this and knows how much I appreciate her support. Thank you so much.”
Since sharing her story on the Canberra Mums Facebook Page, the post has been shared over 11,500 times and liked by more than 83,000 people, with all of them applauding the generosity of ‘Laura’ along with voicing their concerns that parking tickets are issued to the families of hospital patients in the first place.
