Thank you to Kristin and all drivers and delivery people.
Read Kristin’s driver story and more on Instagram @uber

“for being the kindest stranger

while we were in the hospital.”

While on vacation in Florida, Andrew and
Suzanne found themselves facing unforeseen
challenges. Kristin, a driver, turned out to be an
unexpected source of support. Andrew shares
their story.


“Suzanne was just about halfway through her
pregnancy when her water broke.”


She and Andrew had to stay in the hospital for
10 weeks. The couple was stranded away from
home, without a support system.


“I ordered a ride with Uber to go to a
laundromat to get some clothes cleaned.
Kristin was my driver.”

On the way, Andrew told Kristin his story. After
being dropped off, he thought nothing more
of it.

“About 20 minutes later, she showed back up at
the laundromat. She had gone to the grocery
store and bought us bags full of snacks,
toiletries, and other essentials for hospital
living.”

And that was just the start. Over the next
10 weeks, Kristin kept bringing them much-
needed supplies and treats. Although the
couple’s baby is fine, it was a tough time for
them – and Kristin’s kindness helped them get
through it.

“I think Kristin is just the most uncommonly
kind and generous person I have ever
encountered in my life.”
