In 1988 , Mary Andersen was at the Miami airport checking in for a flight to Norway to be with her husband when she was told she wouldn't be able to check her luggage without paying a $ 100 surcharge (超载).
Mary had no money as her new husband had left for Norway and she had no one else to call.
"I was completely desperate and tried to think which of my things I could manage without." says Mary.
As tears ran down her face, a voice behind her said, "That's okay, I'll pay for her."
