Not nearly as touching but in about 1970 when I was a kid 8 or so, my mom went to work. We weren't too poor but not rich by any means. Remeber it was still kinda odd for "moms" to have jobs and on top of it she started in the fall when school started and worked at Montgomery Wards so she was gone most nights when a kid has questions about homework and school and could use his mom. Well, Christmas eve came and of course she had to work and it got real late but she finally got home a couple hours late. Remember, back then, there were no wally's etc open all night. Everything closed on Christmas eve and stayed closed til 26th. What happeded was at 9pm when they closed, a poor lady came in the store. they tried to shoo her out but she told them she had finally gotten paid that night and this was the first money she had gotten and had no presents for her kids. So the staff an mgr kept the store open and let her shop till she had what she wanted, checked her out, and closed up. After my mom told us kids about that I didn't miss my mom so much for working and realized how lucky I was.
