Grandma Left in Tears after Receiving Her First Doll in Her Life from Co-workers for Christmas
Many people were moved to tears when a grandma opened her Christmas surprise this year. Her coworkers presented her with an American Girl doll, and she was overcome with emotion.
A video of a woman’s response to her gift went viral in a TikTok video published on Christmas Day this year. Her reaction to seeing her new doll for the first time was captured on film. The present might not have appeared age-appropriate to others.
The woman’s sobbing response, on the other hand, convinced everyone that it was the ideal present for her. She was filled with emotion the moment she saw the American Girl doll. In her whole life, the woman had never had a doll.
THE VIDEO SURGEONED THE INTERNET.
Netizens were moved by the clip, which Lilian Mejia uploaded, with millions of views and thousands of comments.
Gabriela Mejia, one of the commentators, disclosed that the woman in the video was her grandma.
Her grandmother expressed her gratitude for all of the affection she got online. The woman further said that the doll was presented to her by coworkers. The spectacular incident was re-posted on Twitter, where it drew even more attention.
THE WOMAN’S DEFENSE
One internet user was perplexed as to why the woman had never bought herself a doll before. “What has she been doing with her paychecks if she hasn’t been buying herself things she’s always wanted?” they wondered.
Netizens swiftly rallied to her support, with one commentator saying:
“Not everyone earns enough money to pay all of their expenses, including those of their family, while still having money left over. I’m not sure where you’re from, but this is how a huge section of the population lives.”

GIVING IS THE BEST GIFT.
Others just expressed their feelings on the video. “It’s the simple things, dude,” someone said. “When you go through life without experiencing anything, it’s a wonderful moment you never forget.”
Users also shared their own stories, with several revealing how they spoilt their parents, who had little growing up. “My mum used to play with a block as a doll since it was weighty like a genuine baby,” one respondent said.
My mom told me how growing up she never really got a lot of gifts (she has 4 sisters) so one year I didn’t buy myself anything and every gift under the tree was for her and she was so happy

AN EXTREMELY MEMORABLE CHRISTMAS
The woman’s coworkers were praised by netizens for their concern and care. They had spent a lot of time with the woman and knew precisely what she desired. They were also anticipating her emotional reaction to receiving the doll with a camera in hand.
As one user put it: “For me, it’s the coworkers. That is what love is all about.” The movie demonstrated the value of devoting some time and effort to pampering someone else. Even though it was a small present, it meant a lot to the woman. It was a unique present that insured she would remember this Christmas for the rest of her life.
