A Florida woman named Carissa was recently involved in a severe car accident along with her children. As a mother and nurse, she shared her experience online, revealing that her injuries confined her to a wheelchair during her recovery. Fortunately, she and her children survived and are working through the physical and emotional healing process after the traumatic event. Following the accident, Carissa needed to reduce her expenses, which led to her firing her landscaper. However, his reaction was unexpected.
In a touching TikTok video, Carissa explained that John, the man she had hired previously to maintain her lawn through his company JP Lawn Service in Sarasota, Florida, didn’t respond with anger or resentment when she let him go. Instead, he chose to continue mowing her yard weekly without charging her, despite the Florida summer heat.
“I had to fire him as my lawn guy to cut costs after I was in a car accident and in a wheelchair so couldn’t work. (I’m a single mom). He still mowed my lawn every week in the Florida heat free of charge out of pure kindness. He has a heart of gold and deserves some kind of recognition,” Carissa captioned her TikTok video showing John mowing her lawn.
Carissa also urged others to consider hiring John or leaving a positive review to support his business. She said, “Please share, and I hope it brings him more business or even a Google review to help. I wish I could do more.”
