Driver leaves toy gift for man who waves at M6 traffic
A Family was " left in tears" after a thoughtful Royal Mail driver left A Gift for a disabled man who regularly waves at traffic.
Alex Chesters, 27, who has quadriplegic cerebral palsy, watches from a Bridge over the M6 near Stafford, His Family said.
The Toy truck was left with a handwritten note from a driver who noticed him waving.
His Family said they would like to meet The Driver and " shake his hand".
Mr Chesters' brother Will, 22, said he thought Royal Mail was trying to organise a meeting after a Facebook Post - which attracted 87,000 likes - was spotted by The Employee .
Mr Chesters, who cannot walk for very long, was " obsessed with red" and usually travelled to the Ash Flats Lane Bridge two or Three Times a week with his father Darren.
His brother said: " When he sees the Royal Mail lorries, he thinks it's Postman Pat .
" If they beep The Horn , flash the lights, any form of acknowledgement that they've seen him, he absolutely loves it. "
After his father and grandmother found The Gift on Saturday, " we were All In tears" he added.
" Dad . . Put it in The Family WhatsApp group and said 'look at this, I can't believe it'. Fair Play to him [The Driver ] for finding The Bridge . . Fair Play to go out of His Way .
" [It said] 'have a nice day', something as simple as that, it's really sweet, it was lovely. "
The Message also said: " I drive for Royal Mail and see you and your lad regularly and thought he might like his own [vehicle]. "
Will said The Family had messaged The Driver on Facebook and that his brother also loved visiting railway stations, where it was " Thomas [the Tank Engine] this, Gordon that".
Other activities Alex enjoys include weekly visits to a farm for adults with additional needs, where he is given things to carry.
A Royal Mail spokesperson said: " We were delighted by this heart-warming act of kindness by one of our colleagues.
" We Are now In Touch with Alex's family about arranging for him to visit a Royal Mail site and see some of our vehicles up close. "
