Godfrey Cuotto, 21, was photographed holding hands with a man named Robert, who has special needs, on a public bus earlier last week.
The picture was later posted onto the Facebook page “Only In Hamilton” by a stranger and has since gone viral.
Cuotto was on his way home from a burrito place downtown when he got onto the packed bus, and man sitting close to the front wanted a handshake. The McMaster student said he was a bit surprised, but he shook Robert’s hand.
“He kept holding my hand,” Cuotto said. “I thought I was getting pranked at first, but he just needed comfort.”
Over half hour bus ride, Cuotto said Robert held his hand, leaned on him, hugged him and also kissed his hands during the ride.
“I just allowed it, like what am I going to do?” Cuotto said. “Sometimes you just have to be selfless and put someone else’s needs above yours.”
Someone from Robert’s family got in touch with Cuotto through Facebook and thanked him for being their for his uncle. They told him Robert suffered from cerebral palsy and was deaf.
