PARKVILLE, Md. (WBFF) -- UPDATE: A Parkville mother on a "thank you" mission, looking for the Good Samaritan who came to her aid in a grocery store parking lot this week, has good news to share. The two were reunited Thursday night after a story about the woman's quest to find her "guardian angel" aired on FOX45.

The mother was badly injured as she loaded groceries into her car at the Parkville Safeway Tuesday afternoon. A kind stranger rushed to help, but in all the confusion she never got the woman's name.



"I don't even know what I would say to her, just except for thank you," says Rachael Shaw. "I just kind of remember blurry colors of her."

Shaw was loading groceries into the back of her car when the springs on her trunk hatchback broke, sending it crashing down onto her head. The weight and force knocked her out, leaving a gash that was bleeding heavily. She has a concussion and five staples in the top of her head.

"I woke up on the ground and I heard this voice saying, 'You're going to be okay. You're going to be okay. Do you need me to call anyone?'"

Whoever that voice belongs to, Shaw says, she wants to find her and say thank you. Fortunately, late Thursday night, the Good Samaritan called FOX45 and we connected the two.

"She stayed with me from start to finish," she says. "It was raining. It was pouring rain."

The woman didn't leave her side until paramedics arrived.

"She made sure my son was okay and that he was taken care of, that the right people were called. I don't have any family here whatsoever."

On Tuesday, a stranger treated her like family. Shaw says her kindness meant so much to her.



"Even if she doesn't want to be recognized in the media, that's perfectly okay. Even if something gets to her that I'm just genuinely appreciative that she was there."

There's also a doctor's office nearby. Shaw says the doctor rushed to help too. She's already thanked him.
