Poor Mom Is Barred from Boarding Plane to Get Home to Son, ‘I Need to See My Baby!’ She Screams — Story of the Day
Caitlyn Cooper, a new mom on a trip to Japan, was anxious about leaving her baby and husband, Declan, behind. When a fire broke out at her home, she frantically tried to return, but her efforts were blocked at the airport. Help came from a kind stranger, but an unexpected twist at the boarding gate added to her stress.
While in Japan, Caitlyn received a call about a fire at her home. Desperate to return, she pleaded with other passengers to give up their tickets. A woman named Brenda White offered her ticket, but Caitlyn was stopped at the gate because the names on her passport and ticket didn’t match. “Listen, you don’t understand! I need to see my baby!” Caitlyn screamed. A staff member then allowed her to board after learning of her situation.
Caitlyn returned to find her home half-burned and her family safe in the hospital. Later, she discovered that the kind stranger who helped her was the mother of the airline’s owner. The families have stayed close ever since.
