True angels

[Yaps]

Without going into great detail without permission, I have to tell all who read this that there are true, real angels on this forum.
I have 3 here that have shown so much love , care and concern for me and my family..that words are insuffcient to express.
All I can say is, Thankyou.. you have helped to change lives.
The adoring pup, Yaps

You are right!!Well one is Mary, she has shown love and friendship and gave John and I a donation so to speak, she has also offered her home if a hurricane threatens again..I have 2 large dogs, 1 (Solomon) has never spent a night outdoors.. I can not and wont leave them here during a hurricane, it will not happen. By offering us her home it helps tremendously!
Ross, our little devil is an angel in demon clothes.. he was offered a car, and he passed this offer to me..we have had nothing but problems with our remaining running truck, 2 mechanics have litterally ripped us off,for 2 grand over this past year.. begging and paying for rides was slowly killing us, and if a hurricane did harken upon my door again , oh well. We are deep in the country where mass transport is a foreign term..it will wear you down ..John , after 10 hrs work would sometimes have to wait for 3-4 hrs for a pick-up..Ross we love you
Dr Jeff, car donation, this car is awesome, made it 873 miles from Virginia, not one hitch, slowdown or problem.
When we both were healthier, we had given away many cars, 1 truck...Ive taken in drunks and addicts , given a roof over their heads and found them jobs(this is why we gave cars away), some didnt make it and simply didnt change, many did..
I have been very depressed, especially since I was SSDI approved.. truly a cause of celebration for most.. I hear death peals... that it really is THAT BAD...I swell like a balloon,anyway , I was down..wondering ..who will help me? My John..sometimes walking miles to get home... you see?
This has renewed my faith...what goes around really does come around.. and I feel blessed to have known my angels before I die...
Sorry this is soooo long, but Ive not been posting much due to all that has happened..any way ..this is why we have angels in our midst..love the pup

I'd like to personally give HUGE KUDOS to JeffP and also Mary. He contacted me asking if I knew anyone that needed a car desperately, such as I did last year, and I immediately thought of Yaps. Got them together and within a week, she's driving again! Mary had talked to her and out of her own heart, sent her a small donation to try to take the stress off somewhat.

Random acts of kindness between members is a wonderful thing and deserves to be honored. Simply posting this seems hardly the best we can do, but it's all I can do.

If anyone else feels they need to do something as such, please let me know. I hear things from time to time and know some people that could use some uplifting and help. You've all helped me tremendously, so I know what it feels like when the chips are down, the last hand is about to be called and you know your out before the hand is played. There is nothing like it!

Again, THANK YOU JEFF P and MARY for doing such an honorable thing. It is appreciated in more then one way and from more then one person.

Yaps thanks for the post. I assume SSDI is some type of disability qualification. Being in the southern hemisphere if you are below 23.5 south (out of the topics below the tropic of Capricorn) cyclones are not a problem. Except for Florida I was under under the impression that Huricanes (northern hemisphere cyclones) were not normally an issue.

Hurricanes are an issue for the entire Gulf coast region, from Texas to the East side of Florida and then up the Eastern Seaboard states, not exclusively Florida.

Yaps, you're quite welcome. Glad the trip went smoothly. You guys are making me blush <- that was the closest to a blush icon!

Yaps,

You are the angel; your wings just got a little tired from their workout during the hurricane season.

Thank you, Yaps, for sharing this with us............

Thank you, Yaps, for sharing this with us............

I got goosebumps just reading it and tears in my eyes. It makes me wish I had more to give. I love the folks here, anyway, but reading this just reinforces why so many of us stay. Many hugs. Janet

Yeah. What janet said

It is hard not to have moist eyes when you read this. We might fight like cats and dogs on these forums, but we all share a special bond because of what we have been through. We are united by so much and divided by so little, is it any wonder that deep down we really care about each other like family.

Now, having said that, will Geebee and Ross please report to my garden, the asparagus bed needs weeding.
