A Philippines flight attendant won hearts with her compassionate act of breastfeeding a passenger’s baby. According to Times Now News, Patricia Oregano breastfed a passenger’s baby onboard, when the mother ran out of formula milk.
Patricia narrated the whole event in a Facebook post. This flight was supposed to be a major step in her career, as it was scheduled to be a check flight for Cabin Crew Evaluator.
Patricia says that everything was going smoothly, until she heard an infant crying.
When the 24-year-old, approached the mother, she told her teary-eyed, that she had run out of formula milk.
“Teary-eyed, she told me that she ran out of formula milk. Passengers started looking and staring at the tiny, fragile crying infant.”
Patricia wanted to do everything in her power to help the infant, but alas there was no formula milk onboard. She says,
“I felt a pinch in my heart. There’s no formula milk onboard. I thought to myself, there’s only one thing I could offer and that’s my own milk. And so I offered.”
Patricia fed the baby, until she was asleep. The mother was noticeably relieved. And not only did Patricia win hearts with her graciousness, she also qualified as an Evaluator.
Patricia is glad that she could help. And the netizens are tipping their hats to this act of selflessness.
