We surprised him at Sam's Club last month. Now Secret Santa has one more gift for this family.

#eastidahonews #christmas #secretsanta

A local Secret Santa is giving $1 million to deserving people in eastern Idaho this holiday season and the East Idaho News elves are helping out.

Every day from now until the end of the year, we’ll be posting a Secret Santa surprise, and today we are taking a gift to a family that we forgot to deliver a few weeks ago!

You may recall us surprising Saidu, a man who works at Sam's Club. His wife, Selena, gave birth to their second child earlier this year after a high-risk pregnancy.

Baby Oliver arrived a month early via emergency c-section and spent several weeks in the EIRMC NICU. He was diagnosed with Down syndrome with possibly heart abnormalities and is on oxygen.

Selena and Saidu are the most generous couple. They always help their elderly neighbors by picking up groceries or helping around the house or yard. Saidu jumps at the opportunity to assist.

Selena was a teacher but took time off to stay at home with their toddler. There have been so many medical expenses with their pregnancy and even more so to come, especially if he ends up needing heart surgery. This has been such a challenging and stressful year but they have made the most of it.

We surprised Saidu and then, about a week later, Oliver was released from the NICU. Secret Santa asked us to go and deliver one more gift to the family. Check out the video in the player above!

Someone once told me "Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about". Sobering advice. Thank You Secret Santa.

I love the trust they instilled in Nate to hold baby Oliver. Such a sweet family

You drive down a road, you pass all these houses, but nobody knows the hardship people have to survive behind the closed doors…
Be kind to the people you meet.
God bless you all.
Thanks EIN and the Secret Santa for the joy and insight you bring us every day. 🙏

Even if you can’t give us updates on everyone.. I appreciate the updates you can provide

This is what America should represent. Helping each other.

I love how younger sister is not ignored. She has her moment also. Given Oliver's needs she may feel lost so it is good to give her her moment to.

I absolutely ADORE how Nate is barely in the door, says hello to Saidu, and **blop!** Nate has the baby 💜
Oliver is a cute little nugget (as is his big sister), and I wish for good things moving forward for this loving family!

WE LOVE SAIDU AND HIS FAMILY. THANK YOU SECRET SANTA AND EAST IDAHO NEWS.

Faith in humanity always restored watching these Secret Santa videos

You are so blessed to have a Down Syndrome baby Oliver. I know a lot of people won’t understand that but they are the sweetest and most loving people. If only the world could be more like them. I will pray for healing for Oliver.

Having a son with Downs, who lives with non-correctable heart defects, I feel so connected to them by virtue of being in the same elite club!! It can be a very challenging journey, but is definitely a very blessed one! Sending big hugs. And Love Love Love to Secret Santa for your heart!! It's SO inspiring.

Thanks for following up on this, Nate! It's wonderful to see.

OMG! I'm a 67 year old Army Veteran! Cryin my eyes out over that FAMILY! Why! Hey! I'm a Democrat! And I still believe in "Love and Freedon"! My Hope candle has their names in my little book under it for their support! 💙

[jozziea]

I love that they get blessed again! ❤🎉❤

[lorettademaio]

What a beautiful family. May God continue to bless them and to heal Oliver's heart.

[icareyou]

That is one beautiful family. As if Secret Santa doesn't do enough he/she even thought about this. That is so special, a real personal touch. Well done, Santa.

[Moolarkey]

Secret Santa and his giving heart are the best thing of the year. I have loved this since you started. I can't tell you how much joy and happiness I get out of this.

[KO-lwlo]

Love this. He seemed like such a great appreciative guy and I’m glad Secret Santa could give even more.

[Mojogoblue]

This family has touched so many of us. Thank you, Secret Santa!
