Son Who Is Deaf Surprises Mom By Paying Off Her Mortgage

A son who is deaf gave his mom the ultimate thank-you gift for years of love and support by surprising her and paying off her mortgage. Malcolm Jenkins' beautiful gesture caused mom Claudia Smith, 59, to scream in shock before dancing up and down on the spot and crying happy tears in her Columbia, South Carolina, home. On August 4, with the family gathered, Claudia was told initially that Malcolm, 39, was looking to make a smaller, one-time payment as a gift to her – meaning she was totally unaware of what was to come. With the representative on speakerphone, Natasha then talked through the likes of payment details before the person on the other end of the line asked if she was going to use such information for the next month's payment. That was when Natasha said the words that took her mom's breathe away: "I actually want to use it to pay off the account." As Claudia heard those words, she let out a "What?!" before dancing up and down on the spot and heading to hug Malcolm – who lost his hearing at three years old – as he sat nearby.
