When severe weather hits, like the recent storms in the southern U.S., the world can seem full of uncertainty and fear. But in the midst of chaos, there are always people who step forward to help, even if they’re strangers. These heroes often show up just when we need them most, and sometimes, they save lives.
One woman who survived Hurricane Milton told Fox News about her terrifying experience. She had been walking to a friend’s house, but the floodwaters started to rise fast, making it impossible for her to keep going. She was struggling just to stay upright. It was clear she couldn’t make it on her own.
Just when she thought she couldn’t go any further, a man named Roy saw her. He didn’t know her, but he rushed to help. He pulled her into his house, saving her from the rising waters and the dangerous storm.
With tears in her eyes, she said, “He had no idea who I was. And his name is Roy. And I want to say, Roy, thank you for saving my life… I almost died.”
Her story is just one of many that highlight the selflessness of people who come together during tragedies like Hurricanes Helene and Milton. Strangers helping strangers reminds us that there is more good in the world than we often realize.
Fox News shared the woman’s story on Instagram, and soon, many people were expressing their gratitude to Roy for his quick thinking and kindness.
“Thank you Roy, whoever you are. You’re a good man for saving this poor woman,” wrote one follower.
Another person added, “Thank God for men like Roy! I love that even in the face of tragedy and fear, America can set aside their differences and help each other out.”
One comment summed up the feeling perfectly: “These disasters are devastating, but they give us an opportunity to show compassion and support. It makes the bad a little better when we choose humanity.”
