Stranger Surprises Disabled Veteran With Amazing Gift

Army Specialist Christopher Garrett’s life changed forever when he was shot through his lower abdomen while serving in Afghanistan.

Garrett’s wife, Brittany, her husband was classified as 100% disabled after being treated. Despite his injuries, Brittany says that Christopher continues to mow his lawn several times every week with their push mower.

That changed one day, however, when an incredibly generous stranger surprised the couple with a gift.

Brittany shared the story on her Facebook page.

“Where do I begin? Something AMAZING happened today! As I was getting ready for my day, my husband appeared at the door with tears in his eyes holding our son. My heart sank and I thought someone we love took a trip to Heaven….He quickly assured me that no one had died, but someone had just given him a very expensive riding lawn mower! I don’t know who they are, but they have been watching my 100% combat disabled husband push mow our entire yard once or twice a week, and thought this would help make more time for the important things in life!!! THANK YOU WHOEVER YOU ARE!!! You don’t know how much pain this is going to save him from!!!”

Brittany shared photos of the brand new riding mower her husband was gifted along with her post.

In the comments section of her post, Brittany shared that since being injured and retiring, Christopher’s job “now is just amazing husband and father!” The kind stranger’s gift will surely go a long way in making that job easier.
