A woman who was hospitalized after nearly being run over in a Florida McDonald’s parking lot on Thursday was surprised with a special meal.
On Tuesday Janice Allen, 76, was visited at her home by a manager of the Okeechobee McDonald’s where the incident took place. The manager came by to check on Allen, who spent two days recovering in the hospital, and delivered a Happy Meal, along with two gift cards.

“That’s very nice, I really appreciate that,” Bill Allen, Janice’s husband said to WPTV of the gesture.
Janice’s daughter, Patricia, reportedly called the McDonald’s location to see if they would deliver the Happy Meal to her mother after she was unable to finish her own meal last week, WPTV reported.
