According to the website Aeroin net, a passenger named Sirlandia Dias Pereira was traveling with her son Caleb, who suffered from heart failure and had a heart murmur. During the flight she told the passenger next to her, Alex Pontes, that she was traveling so her son could be hospitalized. She also explained that she was relying on the charity of others for living quarters. The passenger talked to the crew of the airline and asked to use the airplane’s loudspeaker, inviting the other travelers to contribute to a spontaneous collection to help the mother and her son. “All of us would like to find an angel to help us. Those of us who feel moved to do so, let’s help this mother to take a little something with her, a little something we have and can share.” he said. In a matter of minutes, passengers offered a total worth near $400 which goes a lot further in Brazil than in the USA, plus applause for the mother, who was thrilled with the help and repeatedly expressed her gratitude to the passengers. The site that first shared the story later updated the article, adding that Caleb went through surgery and was recovering well. The website Razoes Para Acreditar reported that the story caught the attention of Brazil in TV personality Luciano Huck, who started a crowd funding campaign to help the family.
