Grandma Rips Up Brides Wedding Gown Hoping To Help

By

Getting marry to the man of their life is every girl’s dream. When it comes to the wedding day, everything has to be perfect, starting from the invitations, the venue, and the food. But most important of all is finding the perfect wedding gown.

However, after the ceremony is over, many brides wonder what to do with their dresses. While most of them keep them clean and vacuum-sealed hoping that some they their daughter will be willing to wear it, others don’t get so attached to that piece of fabric and decide to donate it to those who can’t afford one.

One bride however, seem to have found the perfect purpose to the dress she got married into. Justi Boroff didn’t plan on keeping it for the years to come at her wardrobe when she knew it could be used for something meaningful.

She put it in a nicely sealed box and shipped it to a grandma named Sandi Fasano from Colorado. This lady would slice it into pieces, and when you learn the reason why, your heart is going to break.

“I sent it off earlier this year to be made into angel gowns for babies that don’t make it home from the hospital and I’ll be donating them to the NICU at Vanderbilt. Seventeen little gowns were made from my dress and as beautiful as they are, I pray they are never needed.”

Sandi admitted to Denver 7 that the first time she cut into someone’s wedding dress, it was hard. It was someone’s beautiful gown and she was about to chop it up.

What Sandi does for the grieving parents is very special. She knew that those tiny dresses would help soothe the aching hearts of those people who lost a child.

“The last thing a family needs to do is go to a toy store and find doll clothes.”

Once she learned how hard it was for the moms and dads to go to a store and choose a funeral gown, Sandi decided to start Front Range Angel Gowns.

“Because I have 7 beautiful grandchildren and in a perfect world, without loss, there would be more.”

Sandi says it’s amazing how many women donate their wedding dresses for the little souls. Many, however, are being given to her by moms who have unfortunately experienced the loss of a child themselves.

Justi’s dress was transformed into 17 tiny, lovely gown.

Sandi’s story inspired another woman named Connie Sieverding to start a similar organization that would do the same thing for the little angels who leave this world too soon.

“Thank you to Rhonda for her generous donation of her wedding gown. The Angel Gowns shown were made from Rhonda’s donation in memory of her niece who would have celebrated her birthday today, however is an Angel in heaven.”

Sandi’s masterful hands are able to bring a fleeting glimmer of happiness at a very difficult time.

Boarded-Up Doghouse Was Found And Pried Open On Side Of The Road

This is the story of Walter Worthy Higgins, a dog who got another chance for a better life thanks to the people who never thought of letting his side.

When he was first spotted, he was trapped inside a crudely built dog house whose door was nailed shut with a huge board. People would pass by that tiny house but none took the time to check it out, until one man decided to contact the LAPD. Upon arrival, the police officers pried the board and saw the pooch staying with its head down, visibly scared and injured.

The officers called the Ghetto Rescue Foundation for help.

The poor dog spent three days inside the house with his wounds untreated.

The dog didn’t trust humans and it wasn’t easy to make him get out of the house.

But, stepping out of that place meant stepping into his new life. Walter Worthy Higgins was provided with the appropriate medical care and all the love he hasn’t felt before.

This beautiful dog was placed at a foster home where he learns how to socialize with humans and other dogs. Once he is ready, he will hopefully be adopted by a family that will love him unconditionally. Well, that’s the least Walter deserves.

We can’t thank the volunteers of the rescue organization enough for being there for all those animals in need. Keep up the good work!

Help support our local K-9 Officers

K9 Units play one of the most important roles when it comes to the safety of the community members. Patrolling along the neighborhood streets, they make sure everything is in perfect order. Besides these patrols, these dog handlers and their professionally trained four-legged partners do a lot when it comes to locating missing people and sniffing narcotics.

Officer Gabo is one tough dog that won’t quit easily. He was shot four times by an armed suspect, but is now in the process of recovery.

Having heard stories like this, and realizing how important these dogs are for the community, many people felt the need to step in and help any way possible. As a result, we’ve came across a safe and secure way through which you can support K9 officers in Northeast Arkansas.

K9 officers endure highly demanding training which are usually done at night because dogs can track much better at night than people. This means they don’t really have working hours, but can be called upon whenever there is an emergency.

While on the job, these four-legged officers need full equipment, just like their human partners. That includes animal first aid kits, K9 Narcan kits, muzzles, training tools, and more.

All money donated here will be used for the need of the K9 local officers. You can make a one time donation or sign up for a recurring donation.

K9 Cash received Officer of the Month for January 2018

Girl Born With Silver Eyes Finally Has Family That Loves Her

This is the story of Primrose, the little girl that will steal your heart.

The lovely baby girl was born in China, with a condition known as congenital glaucoma. Unfortunately, it wasn’t treated during the first few years of her life and it resulted in turning her eyes completely silver and unable to see.

Primrose experiences hearing problems as well. That was apparently enough trouble for her mother to decide to leave her at an orphanage and never look for her again.

This cute little girl didn’t have it easy.

The staff from the orphanage, just like Primrose mom, weren’t willing to spend some additional time with her and teach her the basics that could help her become at least a bit independent. She couldn’t even keep her head straight.

It’s so devastating to learn that a child this young has never felt what it means to be loved and cared for. Luckily, this is about to change. Primrose’s life is about to take a completely new turn thanks to the special family of four that was willing to open the doors of their home to this beautiful girl.

Eryn and Chris first learned about Primrose from Facebook. The moment they laid eyes on Primrose’s picture something told them they had to have her.

The Austins flew across the globe to adopt lovely Primrose.

Although they were facing certain financial difficulties, Eryn and Chris never let go of the idea of giving this child a second chance for a better life. They only feared for her health condition and wondered whether she would be able to endure the flight back home. They soon realized the sky was the limit for the brave Primrose who made it home safe and sound.

Primrose’s presence in the life of her new family made an impact they could never imagine.

This is what the new mommy wrote about her daughter:

“These are mama eyes that only shut for 4 hours last night. And hands that held and patted a baby’s back for 45 minutes straight just to constantly remind her ‘Someone is here.’ A heart that is sure she is screwing up somehow at least 1,000,000 times a day. A head full of questions, anxiety, and fear. She is a mess. A total mess. And life is flipped on its very head because…

“Primrose Lin.”

“This is a baby who, just 38 days ago, didn’t know the comfort of being held most of the day. She didn’t know that someone would come to her when she called out in her sweet baby language. She didn’t know that she could eat from a bottle without breathing the liquid straight into her tiny lungs. She had no idea that a big sister could cuddle you better than anyone and a big brother could tickle you into fits of giggles.”

“This is a baby who, just 38 days ago, got a mama and a daddy. Whom she cannot see or fully hear. Whom she doesn’t totally understand. Who took her away from everything she knew, however bleak that reality was, and planted her straight in the middle of a crazy whirlwind of a family. A mama and daddy who watched her fight for her life, who wept tears over her feverish body, who fought through third world hospitals and pretended to be brave – because… that’s what mamas and daddies do. We move in the face of all the fear because of our kids, don’t we?”

Primrose’s takes things one step at a time.

She has a lot to learn, but the important thing of all is that she is happy and eager to grab what life has to offer. She now knows that there are people around her she can trust and rely on whenever she feels down.

Things have been challenging both for Primrose and her new family, but their love for each other broke down all the barriers.

It’s amazing what this family did for a girl who had endured so much during her short life. Thanks to their kind hearts, Primrose will only know of love, kindness, and devotion in the years that follow.

Dog farts in his sleep, cat’s reaction to the sound has the Internet cracking up

By

Monica Pop

Cats and dogs don’t really get along. It looks like it’s in their nature to dislike each other, so when you see both a canine and a feline in the same room, you know that speaks trouble.

Now imagine owning the two. Well, I guess those people really have a lot on their plate constantly trying to keep an eye on their furry friends and making sure they don’t get into a fight.

One owner was looking at how peacefully his cat and dog were lying on the bed and decided to film the lovely sight when something unexpected happened. Boy, we are so glad he caught the ‘incident’ on tape.

At one moment, the tired dog closed his eyes and tried taking a nap when suddenly, he let a fart out. The cat got really surprised by the loud and pretty annoying sound and she just couldn’t ignore it.

Making sure the dog knows she hates his loud farting, the cat gave him ‘the look.’ But as though it wasn’t enough warning, she went a step further and took matters in her own hands.

She gave the poor animal two quick punches on the head. Unaware what was going on, the dog opened his eyes trying to understand why his kitty friend hit him. But she was just deeply offended by his careless behavior and wanted to teach him some manners.

We guess next time he decides to let a fart, he’ll first check whether or not somebody is behind him.

Man Forgives Stranger After Tragedy

Unfortunately, many individuals are forced to live with the pain of the loss of a loved one. That burden is hard to carry, and the sad reality is that people don’t know how to get rid of it, or sometimes, they don’t even want to, believing that grieving is now simply part of their existence.

As soon as they realize that forgiveness is the only way out of the confusing and endless maze of self-reproach or blaming others for the tough times they face, they can feel relieved. Being able to forgive means allowing yourself to grow and experience happiness once again. Because when we hold on to anger and resentment that only harms us further.

The following story is both deeply touching and an eye-opening experience of how forgiveness breaks the barrier to freeing the soul.

In a tragic car accident, one man lost it all. His wife and the unborn baby were killed, but this pastor gathered the strength to forgive the man behind the wheel.

Matt Swatzell called the day off after spending long and tiring 24 hours on his job as a firefighter paramedic. As he was driving along the roads of Dacula, Georgia, his car crashed in another vehicle in which there was a young pregnant mother of a 19-month old daughter.

Matt recalled the horrifying incident as he told Today:

“I can still see it. I can still smell it. The horrendous noise and the glass breaking.”

Unfortunately, the mother and her unborn baby were both dead.

The devastating news broke down Erik Fitzgerald, the husband and the father of the victims. The only thing that provided comfort for the grieving man was that his girl was not harmed by the accident.

Seeing his baby girl is something Erik will never forget.

“She crawled into my lap and then she just went to sleep. And I was thankful because I didn’t have to pretend that everything was okay.”

Erik was offered to pursue the maximum sentence against Matt. But he knew that putting Matt behind bars away from his family wouldn’t bring his back. The damage was done, and Erik opted to pardon Matt for what he did. He knew he was sorry and never meant to hurt anyone.

Erik had this beautiful insight to share with Today show host Hoda Kotb:

“I remembered somebody said this in a sermon — in moments where tragedy happens or even hurt, there’s opportunities to demonstrate grace or to exact vengeance,” he said. “Here was an opportunity where I could do that. And I chose to demonstrate grace.”

Pardoned for his actions, Matt was sentenced to community service and a fine.

Sometimes, God works in strange ways, and this time He wanted for Matt and Erik to cross each other’s paths again. Two years after the incident, the two met at a parking lot of the store where Matt was buying a condolence card for Erik.

Now, Matt and Erik meet regularly, and Matt even bonded with then 19-moth-old Faith as well as Erik’s children from his new marriage.

Check the story in the video below. This is an example of how forgiveness is the only thing we can do in order to move along with our life.

Boy Learns Truth After Discovering Baby Under Christmas Tree

By

Sharing the house and the parents with a sibling can be difficult for many young kids. Everyone wants to be mommy and daddy’s favorite child so being jealous at each other is something we understand pretty well. However, these silly misunderstandings are left behind once the siblings get into adulthood.

However, there are also those who simply love being around a brother or a sister during their childhood and make lovely memories that will last for a lifetime. That’s the case with the lovely 10-year-old boy named Owynn. His greatest wish was to have a little brother or a sister. And after that much time, this Christmas was the perfect time for the little bundle of joy to be welcomed into his world.

Owynn’s parents, Stacey and Adam Lindsay, always dreamed of having more children. Stacey herself grew up around 14 siblings and wanted her son to experience what it means to have someone you can always rely on by your side. But, even after seven years of trying, they couldn’t conceive.

The family shared their heartwarming story with Love What Matters saying how they experienced five miscarriages and a failed in-vitro. After this, they simply stopped trying and opted to become foster parents. However, that would mean inviting a child in their home, taking care of them, watching them grow in front of their eyes, and then simply let them be another’s family joy. That was something they wouldn’t be able to handle. So the idea of fostering didn’t seem the most appropriate, which broke little Owynn’s heart.

After some time, Stacey and Adam met a young woman named Kendra who was pregnant but wanted to give her child for adoption. The family was more than happy to be this baby’s adoptive parents. They were over the moon when Kendra told them they could have her baby daughter.

On December 8, Stacey and Adam were given permission to take baby Naylee home. Owynn, however, could never in his wildest dreams imagine that Santa would make his biggest wish come true.

Once the little baby girl was home, her parents wrapped her in a warm blanket and placed her under the Christmas tree for she was the most precious gift they could ask for.

When Owynn entered the place, his little heart was immediately filled with pleasure. His sister was there, waiting for him to take her in his safe hands. He knew she will be his best friend for life.

This beautiful first encounter is something Owynn will never forget. You can check it out in the video below. But before you proceed watching make sure you grab a tissue.

Dog drowning in frozen pond cries out for help, Then a hero takes off clothes and rushes onto ice

It’s astounding what some people are ready to do in order to save a life. It takes a lot of courage and sacrifice to do what this Russian man did when he spotted a canine in trouble.

Apparently, the stray dog was running over the frozen pond hoping to catch one of the ducks he noticed waddling by. But things didn’t go as planned and the poor dog hit some bumps in the road and found himself inside the freezing water.

It’s crazy how the man didn’t hesitate a bit and didn’t think of his safety, but quickly rushed towards the drowning dog. He wore nothing but his pants. No shirt, no shoes.

In order for him not to fall in the water he knelt down and slowly approached the dog who was caught up either in a rope or netting. The scared animal didn’t know the man was there to get it out of the cold. It would angrily bark at the Russian whenever he tried to stretch his arm towards it.

At one point, the dog bit the man’s hand. But the brave savior never let go of the attention to get the animal out.

With his hand hurt, the man was aware he was short of time and had to act really fast. Eventually, he grabbed the dog by the scruff of his neck and pulled it out of the freezing water.

The dog got his happy ending and a second chance for life, while the hero who didn’t let anything stand on his way of the incredible rescue was provided help for his injured hand. The local authorities thanked the unnamed man for his bravery, and placed the dog at a safe place.

And while not all heroes wear capes, the hero from this story didn’t really wear much, well except for his pants.

Isn’t this one of the best rescue stories you’ve ever stumbled upon?

Hero Dog Saves Cat from Drowning in a Dramatic Rescue

By

This courageous little dog teaches us that everything we believed to be true about the natural “hatred” between cats and dogs is nothing but an assumption. Although they may not be that fond of each other, they’ll still step in when one of them is in trouble.

What a woman from Turkey caught on tape will leave you speechless. She had come across one of the most extraordinary scenes we’ve ever seen. A cat was about to drown as she found herself stuck in deep water. As she was desperately trying to get out, one dog was determined to save her.

The brave pooch dived into the water and knew exactly what to do. He carefully got under the cat and let her mount onto his back. He then took her out of the deep water and to a safe place.

The woman was so impressed that she had to share the incredible video with her Twitter followers.

However, after the cat was out, the dog seemed to got stuck in the water himself. Luckily, after a couple of tries he managed to get out too. People who saw the video agree how what he did was pretty much amazing.

And while a lot of people were thanking the woman for sharing this with the world, many judged her for recording instead of actually helping. She could have simply taken the cat out of the water and spare the poor dog all the trouble. There were also those who believe the animals become stronger when faced with such situations and the woman did the right thing for not intervening.

Who knows, maybe she was afraid that she could get hurt by the scared animals. Anyways, what she put on tape is a rescue we’ll never forget.

We are glad both the cat and the dog weren’t hurt.

Magician Puts On a Show for Shelter Dogs, How They React Will Make You Go ‘Aww’

By

Monica Pop

-

We all love magic tricks and can’t help but wonder what’s the truth behind them. They mesmerize us and make us laugh. Now imagine doing magic in front of a different kind of audience – a bunch of sweet dogs from the shelter.

Magician John Stessel shows us that everyone needs to have fun every once in a while, even our furry friends whose reaction to his tricks is priceless.

The shows John performs at the Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter in New York, in partnership with director Rob Bliss and TBS, have the purpose not only to entertain the dogs, but also to provide potential adopters with the chance to see their vibrant personalities. This will probably increase the chances of the lovely pals finding their forever home.

“I’ve always loved the idea of doing magic with dogs,” Stessel told The Dodo. “Performing for them was nothing short of incredible.”

Who could have thought the dogs could be such an incredible audience.

“The reaction from the dogs was just amazing,” Stessel said. “They were just so cute. It was really special.”

Each dog is rewarded plenty of doggie treats after the shows. They love the magic and enjoy every single moment of it. Hopefully, they’ll be able to perform the most important trick themselves, that of vanishing form the shelter right in the house of someone who’ll love them until their last day.

“They just wanted to be loved,” Stessel said. “Each one of them would be perfect to find their own forever home.”

Husky Stuck on Rooftop Gives His Rescuer the Cutest “Thank You” Ever

By

Many times in life we find ourselves in desperate situations and we need someone’s help in order to overcome the difficulties. Just like this lovely dog who got himself in trouble.

Luckily, the brave firefighters were there to provide help and save the day. After all, they are our everyday heroes whose courage never ceases to amaze us.

The neighbors in Wells, Maine panicked and called for help when they saw Jasper, the 10-year-old Husky, on the roof.

They assumed the dog got out through an open window but either didn’t know how to get inside, or the window accidentally closed shut.

The roof was about 15 feet high and the worried neighbors feared for Jasper’s safety. They first contacted the Wells Police that redirected the call to the Wells Professional Firefighters Association.

The fun part of the rescue was that Jasper seemed to be having good time up there. He wasn’t really scared.

“The call came in for a dog stuck on a roof. My first thought was on the roof of a car, but I didn’t exactly know what was going on,” said Captain Jeff Nawfel of the Wells Fire Department. “Myself and another firefighter who was there with me made the decision that we would ladder the building by ourselves and that we were going to put the dog inside.”

The rescue had a happy ending because no job is too challenging for brave Captain Nawfel who climbed the ladder of the ladder truck and helped the dog find the way inside the house through the room.

You can never guess what Captain Nawfel got as a thank you for the successful rescue mission.

The dog thanked the firefighter with one big, sloppy, wet kiss!

After the firefighter department shared the lovely story on their Facebook page, it quickly went viral and everyone who got to see the kiss went all smiles. People agree it was the best “thank you” someone can get in return for a job well done.

Many news outlets were eager to hear to what the Captain himself had to say.

“Friendly dog. Kinda gave me a smooch on the way in the house and that was the end of it and I came down the ladder,” Nawfel said.

“It floors me that, out of anything going on, this has gotten the attention that it has. It’s crazy. Absolutely crazy.”

“You know there’s always the thought of the firemen going to rescue the cat out of the trees… it’s the ongoing thing. But a dog on the roof is a first.”

We are certain Jasper’s owners are beyond thankful because their dog is not only safe and sound, but pretty famous as well.

Check the amazingly heartwarming interaction in the video below. It will definitely make your day.

How many times have you come across a singing dog? Not many I guess, because that’s not something we get to see every day. However, this Siberian Husky possesses incredible singing skills thanks to which he was again reunited with his owners.

Namely, some kids stumbled upon the dog that wasn’t in a really good condition. He was laying all alone outside of Beersheba, Israel. The kind kids took it to the nearest police station because they were worried for his well-being. As it turned out, a Husky matching his description was reported missing by a local family.

The police quickly contacted the owners. They asked the officers to check whether it was their dog using an unusual method. Apparently, their pet would sing along whenever he would listen to the melody from his favorite TV show, “Shemesh.” The officers did exactly that, they played the song, and what followed is the most amazing thing ever.

We’ll just tell you that the dog was reunited with his owners, and for the rest of the story check the video below!

It’s been said that “a dog is the only creature on Earth that loves you more than they love themselves” and we can’t agree more. The moment we welcome them in our home they become our most loved and most loyal family members. Those who one one know that a house is not a home without a pet.

Bird Born, an artist from Russia, depicts what it means to adopt the best furry companion through a series of photos that will warm your heart. Each ripped pillow is worth the devotion these loving creatures are ready to give.

Bored Daddy says “thank you” to all the caring people who adopted a shelter animal and provided them with another chance for a happy life.

Amazon Package Thieves Pranked With Sweet Glittery Revenge

By

Monica Pop

-

Get ready for the best “sweet revenge” story ever. Mike is the guy who will teach bad guys a lesson they will never forget. This is both vicious and hilarious and it will make you burst out laughing. You really need to be a real pro to come up with something like this.

As you know, thieves are all around us, and when they spot a package left at people’s front porch, many won’t hesitate to approach and steal it. Well, this is what happened to Mike, who by the way helped in building the Mars rover, and yes, that’s how smart he is, so many times that he could no longer put up with the naughty thieves. He spent six months plotting the ultimate payback, which to everyone’s pleasure, was caught on tape.

The video has been seen more than 25 million times, and everyone agrees how this engineer’s plan is indeed ingenious. Mark explains that he didn’t take the law into his own hands before contacting the local police department. But, the answer he got from the officers was that they couldn’t act against the package thieves based on the videos from his security camera alone.

This witty engineer wouldn’t let the bad boys go unpunished. But in Mark’s world, the ideal punishment involved lots of glitter and some fart smelling spray.

Although being covered in glitter could be what young kids enjoy, we are certain the thieves won’t be as excited with the idea of being covered with all those sparkles from head to toe.

The fake Amazon package Mark built consisted of four cameras that would capture every angle, as well as a GPS that would track its location. Inside the package there was a bomb made out of glitter and the fart spray that will provide the thief with ultimate smelling ‘pleasure.’ At the end of the day, these people don’t really deserve anything less than being humiliated for their behavior.

Once the package was all ready, Mark placed it on the front porch, and it didn’t take long for someone to spot it and take it.

The clever engineer could now just wait for the person to open it and discover the glittery and smelly surprise. This is definitely a must watch that will make you day.

The moral of the story is: Never steal other people’s packages, because at the end, you’ll get what you deserve!

Woman captures moment when old man can’t afford to pay for his medication until stranger steps in

By

Monica Pop

-

Hearing of stories of random strangers helping those in need is something that deeply touches our hearts and make us believe that humanity isn’t dead after all. Whenever we stumble upon such stories we somehow feel like we should take the time and also lend a helping hand to someone who’s experiencing tough times. Whether it is paying for someone’s food, giving a homeless person some money, or simply giving a lift to your neighbor whose car broke down, doing good never gets out of style and that’s what makes the world go round.

The latest story that restores our faith in humanity comes from a woman who witnessed an amazing act of kindness between a young girl and an old man who was short on money. The touching scene took place at Walgreen.

The old man was at the check-out of the pharmacy and the woman who shares his story could overhear the conversation between the two.

The elderly was trying to get three months worth of medication which cost $170. Unfortunately, that was more money than what the man had in his pockets. Not being able to afford the three months supply, he opted for a month worth of medication instead.

Another young lady who happened to witness the whole thing couldn’t let the old man leave the place without his much needed medication so she decided to pay for it.

The woman who shares the story was deeply touched by the young girl’s kindness. That was something that mustn’t go unnoticed.

“OKAY, I just saw the most amazing thing today. I was waiting for my prescription at Walgreen, and I noticed this man is picking up his medicines.. He is asking how much they are, and starting to get nervous about the price. The total was $170 and the pharmacist asked if he would rather only get one month of his medicines instead of 3.

THIS lady next to me, walks up to them and says: NO, he is getting all three months and pays for his bill. I was walking out of there with tears in my eyes, what an amazing woman…”

This lovely story went viral in the blink of an eye, and all for the right reasons. To inspire others to follow this girl’s example and become someone’s angels.

Another person that goes by the name Joaniemansoosie shared their story on Reddit, saying:

“I had a similar situation. I had groceries and miscalculated. I had 60.00 on me and they rang up to 90. So, I had to put things back( which is always embarrassing, especially when someone’s waiting on you.) The lady behind me saw my embarrassment and said ‘Go ahead and put your things back, I’d like to pay for them.’ I said, ‘Oh, no, that’s okay, but thank you!’

So I paid for what I had and left. She follows me out to the parking lot with the items I had put back in a sack. She wants me to have them. I cry and hug her and thank her. When I get home, there’s a 100.00 bill in the sack. The amount of joy I received from this act of kindness made my day, my week, my year. I hope I can one day do this for someone.”

There isn’t something more fulfilling than the hug, or just an honest “thank you” from the person we helped. We never know what battles people are fighting, and what problems or obstacles they are facing, that’s why it’s very important to show kindness to everyone, whenever we can. We can never know the impact our good deed can have on someone’s life and how many people our behavior will inspire. Because no matter how big or small, every act of kindness goes a long way.

Choose to be someone’s ‘savior’ today!

4 Children Orphaned After Car Crash, But Trooper Had Them Get Into His Car

By

Sylvia

-

Faith in humanity restored!

The father and mother to 4 children, Donald and Crystal Howard, had gone to a local store in order to pick up some facepaint for their children’s 4 Halloween costumes. Their children, 13-year-old Justin, 10-year-old Amiah, 8-year-old Daimean, and 6-year old Trayvion, eagerly waited for their parents while all dressed up in their costumes. However, it was not meant to be as Donald and Crystal were killed in a tragic car accident, which unfortunately ocurred less than a mile away from their own house.

Trooper Nathan Bradley had been assigned the heart-wrenching task of checking in on the 4 children and informing them of their parents’ deaths. Their grandmother was informed, but she lived in another state and therefore would require at least 7 hours in order to be by their side. Bradley could not bear to tell the 4 children the awful news and did not want to phone the Department of Family and Child Services up either. “Not only would these children discover they lost both parents, but would spend their Halloween in a county jail until somebody could tend to them – it just wasn’t right,” he said.

Instead, Bradley decided to give the kids a day’s worth of blissful innocence before he delivers the terrible news.
Instead of informing them that their parents had passed away and placing them into state custody, Bradley took them out for a ride in his car. He drove the kids to a nearby McDonald’s and a Burger King outlet for fries and milkshakes. He also bought them some candy and ice cream before giving them a tour of the police station where the 4 children stayed to watch movies and read some magazines. For one more night, they celebrated Halloween just like any other child would. Bradley also recalled how difficult the night was for him due to the bad news he would have to break. He told the tragic news to them the very next day.

The four siblings moved to Florida to live with their grandmother. Even though they had left the state, Bradley still wanted to do whatever he could to help them in the difficult months ahead. To help them, he had even set up a GoFundMe campaign which has successfully raised over $500,000 since its inception! Despite the tragedy, the 4 children still regard Bradley as their hero and are greatly touched for the kindness he had shown them – and so are we.

Family Snaps Photo After Being Denied Booth At Restaurant

By

When walking at a restaurant, we all want to get the best table and enjoy our meal sitting on comfy chairs. Well, when we are not getting this, we may feel a bit disappointed by the place, especially if we see an empty, soft booth next to our not so nice table. This is what a family from Texas stumbled upon when they chose to dine at the Texas Roadhouse restaurant in Dallas.

However, when the family got closer look at the empty booth, they learned it was reserved for a group of VIP’s. They had no idea who they might be, but assumed the group had to be special because they’d get the best table that was nicely decorated and really stood out than the rest.

The national American Flag and Texas state flags were adorning the wall in the background, and an elegant white tablecloth was placed over the table. The family, as well as the rest of the customers, were eager to meet the five people, whom they assumed were someone really important.

At one moment, they noticed the sign and knew exactly who the VIP guests were.

It was really touching and sad when the family realized the special guests will never enter the place anytime soon. In fact, they will never again be able to celebrate their friendship or have a gathering over the specialties of the house.

The table had been reserved for five slain police officers who were ambushed by multiple snipers on Dallas. The booth was a way for the restaurant to say thank you to the brave souls.

It was something that mustn’t go unnoticed. The family decided to take a photo and share it on the social media. All those people who got to see the unselfish act were thankful to the restaurant for what they did.

Many of the customers couldn’t hold their tears back after they read the sign placed on that special table which said:

“We remember and honor the five slain police officers, Sergeant Michael J. Smith, Officer Michael Krol, Officer Patrick Zamarripa, Senior Corporal Lorne Ahrens, and Mr. Brent Thompson, who worked for the Dallas Area Rapid Transit Police Department, that the Texas Roadhouse restaurant reserved a table for. We thank you for your service. May you rest in peace.”

We are beyond grateful for the men in blue who sacrificed their lives for the citizens of Dallas, as well as glad that the Texas Roadhouse took the time to honor these heroes doing an amazing deed. We should all take the time and say “thank you” for the heroes who lost their life, and to those men and women in uniform that put theirs on the line every day.

Age 5 boy found starving to death in closet – siblings save his life

By

It’s simply unbelievable how cruel people can be at times. When we hear of some of the despicable acts they do, we understand how this world slowly becomes an evil place. Luckily, there is always someone who’ll come along and remind us that humanity is not dead.

The following story broke our hearts in a million pieces. The sad faith of a young boy who nearly died of neglect is just a reminder that we should always pay close attention to those around us, because many times people look normal, but hide awful secrets.

Jordan, a five year old boy from Spring, Texas, had the life no one ever deserves to have. He was hours from death when he was found in his home back in 2014. The most devastating thing is that he wasn’t ill, nor suffered an accident, but was severely neglected by those who were supposed to love him unconditionally.

Jordan was a child from his father’s other relationship and lived with him, his step-mother, and seven step-siblings. While the rest of the kids were treated just fine, Jordan was the one who was constantly beaten, starved, and forced to live in a tiny “Harry Potter” room under the stairs.
Brad Bleimeyer and his wife Tammi were parents from hell.

The cupboard where Jordan would spend most of the time wasn’t only small, but there were bare wires and nails sticking out and it was very much unsafe for anyone to be staying there, let alone a boy that young.

Luckily, there was someone in the house who knew how wrong it was for Jordan to be treated that way. 16-year-old Cody, one of the boys, was desperately trying to find a way and save his sibling from the torture he was going through, but somehow, his voice wasn’t heard.

“The police had been to our house multiple times,” said Cody, according to The Sun. “All the police officers told me there was nothing they could do about it.”

“The teachers were unsure what to do — nobody could help me at that point.”

“I remember police officers were actually at our front door and I asked them to come in and see what was happening and they said they couldn’t because I was underage and I didn’t own the house. They were literally at our door and I was asking for help and they couldn’t do anything.”

But despite the lack of help, Cody (who’s now studying criminal justice) kept pushing. He and his sister, Allison, challenged their parents but received verbal and physical punishment and threats for trying to help Jordan.

One day in March 2014, Cody had had enough. He broke into Jordan’s prison cell and was shocked at what he found.

“The day I opened up that closet, Jordan was in the worst shape I had ever seen him in,” he recalled. “I had been in a huge fight with Brad so I was already in trouble and both adults were outside of the house so I just saw an opportunity and I opened up the closet to let Jordan out.”

“But what I found was truly shocking — he was in his diaper, he didn’t have any clothes on. His face was all caved in, bruises all over, marks on him. His mouth was foaming. I have never in my life seen anything as bad as that.”

“I kind of paused for a second and then I just freaked out. If we hadn’t got him out that day I don’t think he would have survived.”

“I picked Jordan up and gave him to my sister Allison so she could care for him and comfort him and I went outside and just called my mom and Brad out on it. They both flipped out that I had opened the closet door — they said I had no business going in there, that it wasn’t anything to do with me.”

“At that point things escalated between me and Brad and we started shoving each other and I was just trying to draw as much attention as I could. I knew at this point there was no turning back. My mom had confiscated my phone but I had a prepaid phone so I called the police but in the meantime my mom was packing all the kids up and getting everyone out.”

“I remember him falling and I picked him up and him just being in my arms was terrible,” Allison, who had been 14 at the time, added. “It was like I wasn’t holding anything — he was so light — it wasn’t like holding a kid at all.”

“He was so, so white and his cheeks were sunken and he smelled terrible — it was just awful. I hadn’t seen him for about a week before this and he was scared, he didn’t know what was happening.”

Finally, this December, the justice had been served and Tammi was sentenced to 28 years in jail. During the court hearing, her children, Cody and Allison testified against her.

Brad Bleimeyer was sentenced to 15, according to the Independent. The rest of the kids were put in foster care. It’s sad how what their parents did affected their life. This is something none of them will ever forget.

Jordan, his biological mother, and the rest of us can never thank Cody and Allison enough for risking their own safety in the struggle to get their little brother off the awfully painful ordeal.

Lovely Jordan got his happy ending. He is now living with his mom and is a very happy and healthy young boy with a great life ahead.

Son Finds Out Where Mom Disappears To Every Christmas Eve

Christmas is that special time of the year everyone wants to spend with the family and friends. Knowing this, now 63-year-old John Dorroh couldn’t help but wonder why his beloved mother would decide to run her errands on this day instead of staying at the house with him and the family. He recalls how she would always find an excuse to leave the place for some time on Christmas day.

Now, years after his mother Sue passed away, John discovered her well-kept secret. One day he found a note in the mailbox. The sender was signed as Robert. It was all kind of strange because John didn’t know any person that went by that name. It appeared he was his mother’s former coworker who was about to reveal the truth about Sue’s real personality. Robert was writing how he and Sue were more than work pals, and all those excuses she came up with all those years were just a way for her to sneak and spend the day with another family.

Sue loved the holiday season and was always waiting for it in anticipation. She did all her shopping in advance, and everything was ready even before Thanksgiving. Because of this, John and his family would never question her absence. After all, she was always back after a couple of hours as she promised.

John’s heart melted as he proceeded reading the letter. His mother was a real angel. Neither he, nor his dad would ever imagine how she was making sure for Robert’s family to get the Christmas they so much wanted, but unfortunately, couldn’t afford.

This woman had a heart of gold. Robert’s letter to John read:

“Dear Johnny, I just wanted you to know how much my family and I appreciate what your mother has done for us for all of these years. Every year on Christmas Eve day your mom comes to my house dress like Mrs. Claus and gives my kids a Christmas that we can’t afford to give them. She has given them shoes, shirts, jeans, toys, and candy.”

She would bring joy in the home of Robert for every Christmas, till the rest of her life and that was the most amazing thing.

“I know your heart is heavy and that you are missing Miss Sue. We do, too. We loved her and just wanted you to know what she has done for us. Love, Robert and Nellie and the kids.”

John is very proud of his mother, but still, feels a bit sad for not learning this truth while she was still alive.

Robert’s note was the ultimate Christmas present John could ever receive. No money, or other material things can ever compare to the pleasure and joy these words brought in this son’s heart and life.

John is aware that his mother didn’t want her good deed to be known to anyone, but he somehow feels like he has to share her story. He hopes others will follow this compassionate woman’s example, because being there for others is what makes this world go round. The proud son wrote a short story about his “Mom’s Secret Mission,” which has now been published in “Chicken Soup for the Soul: The Joy of Christmas.”

Duo Wins 1st Place For Updated Take On Classic Swing Dance

Ben Morris and Jennifer DeLuca make it clear what it really takes to be number one and end up winning a swing dance competition. Their incredible dancing routine makes the two jump off the page and leave the audience and the judges speechless. The fact they live on the opposite sides of the country isn’t an obstacle for them to get together and practice the top-notch golden medal worth choreography.

Once they took the stage of the Capital Swing Dancers’ Presidents’ Day weekend convention in California, everyone knew it was going to be a dancing experience like no other. It really is something never-seen before, because it’s incredibly original with no single classic swing step or sequence in the whole routine.

The crowd went wild with every step this duo took, and everyone was eager to see more of the “rebellious” performance. The whole thing was accompanied by loud cheering. Ben and Jenifer’s vibrant personalities were expressed by their moves which were energetic and bubbly. Dancing to George Thorogood’s classic only added to the beauty of the whole thing.

This dancing duo did something incredible. They gave the swing dancing a completely new meaning. Everyone who got to witness the dazzling performance agrees how it was more vibrant, and well…different.

The way Ben and Jennifer were dressed was nothing like what other competitors wore. The females are “expected” to dress in a pretty A-line dresses that resemble the outfit of the swing-dance era. Jennifer went a step further and wore black slacks with metal studs adorning pocket and a white and black sleeveless top. Her partner Ben was dressed in a classic pants, a shirt, and a sweater.

The flawless dance routine didn’t incorporate any distinctive move from the 1930s, but the perfect harmony and the “crazy” swinging all around the stage made it enjoyable to watch.

Jennifer bends over backwards while Ben uses her outstretched arm as a microphone and lip syncs George’s song. It’s really fabulous, especially seeing the twisting and flipping on the ground instead of up in the air.

Swing dance is a style of social dancing in which a dancer often lifts, spins, and flips the partner. It’s a favorite among dancers of all ages and its origins date back in the 1920s when jazzy Big Bands were all the rage, but then seemed to fade away after the 194o’s.

However, in recent years this type of dancing regained its popularity and people really seem to enjoy it both practicing it and watching how it’s done. Ben and Jennifer took swing dancing to a whole new level that everyone loves.

A woman was wondering how her husband would react if she decided to dump him. In order to discover that, she came up with a vicious plan. But the husband had the last laugh.

This is a must read. We are sure the wife didn’t see this coming!

The other day, a girl wanted to know how her hubby would react if she left without telling him where she had gone. So she decided to write him a letter saying she is tired of him and didn’t want to live with him any more and after writing, put the letter on the table in the bedroom before hiding under the bed…

When her hubby came back home, he saw the letter and read it, then he also wrote something on it and began to sing and dance changing his clothes. He got his phone, dialled someone then said:

”Hey babe, I’m just changing clothes then will join you, as for the other fool it has finally dawned on her that I was fooling around with her and has left. I was really wrong to have married her, I wish I had known you earlier. See you soon honey!”

Then her hubby walked out of the room…

In tears and very upset, she got up from under the bed and decided to go and read what her hubby wrote on the letter. When she got the letter, it said:

”I could see your feet you idiot, I am going to buy bread”.

Dr. Travis Opens Up About the “Special Lady” in His Life

By

Every person has a softer side, and no matter how strong someone might seem to be, things that come along our way have the power to weaken and even crush us, and that’s fine, because at the end of the day, we are just humans.

In the recent interview of our beloved Dr. Travis Stork, he showed his audience how everyone has the right to shed tears of either pain or joy every once in a while. The prominent TV figure and a co-host of the show The Doctors got really emotional when he got to share with the world the story of his loving girl.

He told the audience how his girl’s health issues and struggles left him heartbroken. Everyone says how this side of the Doctor only speaks of him as an emotional person whose life was deeply affected because of Nala’s condition. And it’s perfectly normal to feel that way, because once you develop a strong bond with someone, they remain a huge part of your life even after they are no longer part of it.

Dr. Travis and his lovely dog Nala have been best companions for more than seventeen years. The moment she entered his life, she made it better. He is proud to be called this awesome creature’s father.

When he talks about her, he describes her as loyal, gentle, and kind. A wonderful dog anyone would ask for. A real blessing.

Nala provided comfort for her human daddy and friend whenever he needed it. She could make all the pain and stress easily go away with a single bark or simply by wagging her tail.

Unfortunately, during the interview, her condition was very bad and she was living her last days, and by the time it aired on TV, Nala passed away.

Losing a pet is very hard and brings unbearable pain in the life of the owner. It’s like a huge part of their heart is lost forever.

The interview shows the impact and the influence a pet can have on a person’s life. It will give more clearer picture about their importance to everyone who ever dared to say, “it’s just a pet.”

Watch Dr. Travis’ interview in the video below. It will definitely move you to tears.

The poor dog spent three days inside the house with his wounds untreated.

This is the story of Primrose, the little girl that will steal your heart.

This cute little girl didn’t have it easy.

The Austins flew across the globe to adopt lovely Primrose.

Primrose’s presence in the life of her new family made an impact they could never imagine.

Primrose’s takes things one step at a time.

Things have been challenging both for Primrose and her new family, but their love for each other broke down all the barriers.

At one point, the dog bit the man’s hand. But the brave savior never let go of the attention to get the animal out.

The neighbors in Wells, Maine panicked and called for help when they saw Jasper, the 10-year-old Husky, on the roof.

You can never guess what Captain Nawfel got as a thank you for the successful rescue mission.

“Friendly dog. Kinda gave me a smooch on the way in the house and that was the end of it and I came down the ladder,” Nawfel said.

“It floors me that, out of anything going on, this has gotten the attention that it has. It’s crazy. Absolutely crazy.”
