The Best Present Ever!

Last night, my daughter was quite upset. A friend's of her friends mom had what they thought was a stroke. She is not moving, or responding. The CAT scan and spinal tap says it was not a stroke, and they have no clue what is wrong. Anyways, the lady has a daughter approx. 8 years old. She does ALL her Christmas shopping on Christmas Eve. This meant she had no presents coming. Well, this was not going to happen. I went to a local site and asked for suggestions of what I could buy her. I went shopping before work this morning, Al wrapped. While I was at work, here came a girl, 20+ miles away, who is not supposed to shop because of her MS with presents. A guy I work with came in with more presents. The club where I work, went against policy and made a donation to a non-member. This child is going to have a wonderful Christmas all because of strangers. My faith in the human race is restored. I couldn't ask for a better Christmas.

I am so glad the little girl will have Christmas presents! And I am praying for her mother to get well.
