While a person with a disability can do everything a ‘normal’ person can, doing ‘normal’ activities like going out to eat at a restaurant usually takes much more planning, patience, and effort.
51-year-old Lee Bondurant has cerebral palsy, which makes it incredibly difficult for him to eat on his own. Despite the challenge, he usually tries his best to feed himself or has a trusted friend or family member feed him, but when he and his mom Linda went out one evening at an oyster bar in Raleigh, North Carolina, his mom was struggling to feed him and herself at the same time.
When their server, a college student who goes by the name ‘Five’, noticed the two struggling to enjoy their food, he walked over to their table and insisted on helping.
“For a total stranger to come up really touches a mother’s heart, especially when your child is special needs,” Linda Bondurant said.
“That was the ultimate kindness he showed me,” Bondurant said. “I really appreciate what he did, an act of kindness.”
“To find someone that kind in a world like today, that is a hard thing to find. You don’t find it every day,” Bondurant said of the server who he plans to see again when he visits the restaurant for his upcoming birthday.
