There is one thing for sure about snow and ice when it comes to winter time, it guarantees that you have equal shares of accidents and hilarity! This is no exception, his icy driveway won’t let him win…

This truly funny video gave so many people aching sides, you can see this guy getting on with his chores, putting out the garbage, well trying to…

He has one unexpected obstacle though, a perilously icy driveway that just completely refuses to let him get to his own gate!

The garbage truck makes its rounds and its routine stop, this English guy goes down to put his trach out. He didn’t bargain for the fight he was about to have.

What usually takes just a few minutes turns into a hilarious comedy sketch, a slapstick scene that lasts forever, poor guy!

He takes it up to a certain point, then just before the natural incline in his driveway, with his smooth soled shoes let him down. Repeatedly he gets to just the same spot and the trash bin pulls him right back again.

The guy was really determined though, the trash was not about to beat him, his determination to get the trash out really had his family in stitches.

In the end, his wife called him and told him to try pushing the Trash instead of trying to keep pulling it, but that just leads to the most amazing backslides!

As this was all going on the Garbage truck backed out of their alley and started to go down the next lane, but even then the guy didn’t give up, he was so determined.

At last, he had a revelation and he used the grass on the edge to get to the gate, it was a great plan until he got to the gate, then he had to slide along the driveway to get to the gate latch and open the gate!

He opened the gate with one hand then the trash started rolling back again, this time though the guy used the gate to anchor himself, hanging on for dear life!

He was pulled until he was right on the road nearly, but he plain refused to give in in the least bit.

All that battling enabled him to actually pull the trash bin through the gate, then slapped the gate shut!

It just goes to show that determination and persistence pay off, in the end, every time, and while he didn’t catch the Garbage truck that day, he beat it!

He finally pulled the trash can through the gate and slammed it shut.

He may not have caught up to the garbage truck that day, but he conclusively proved that persistence is the key to winning all wars. Even the ones against icy driveways and runaway trash cans!

Receiving gifts is really great, but the whole process of both finding and giving a gift is the best and pleasurable part of the process. To see the person’s reaction is completely satisfying, especially to that special someone.

That feeling you get when you search for and find a special gift, a really heartfelt gift for a special person in your life, it’s a real deeply precious feeling!

Bill and Linda Modry were looking forward to just that, they were on their way to see their goddaughter, newly adopted, and they were very excited.

They were so incredibly pleased that they could welcome the little girl to the family, and to give her a special gift to remember the occasion of coming into the family forever more.

They had a shock at the airport though, as they went through security they were forced to throw the gift in the airport security trash!

Waiting at the Airport security were Amarri Hernandez and her boyfriend, they were at the St. Pete-Clearwater International Airport and they saw it all happen almost right in front of them.

Amarri said in a Facebook post:

“I witnessed a man being told that he was not allowed to take his package on the plane …The guy looked at the officer and said ‘Could I leave it at the airport in the lost and found. It’s a snowglobe for my adopted grandchild.’”

Amarri goes on:

“The officer replied ‘Put it in file 13’ and pointed at the garbage can …The man was hurt and threw it in the garbage.”

Amarri watched the man, quite hurt, walk away from the Trash, tears in his eyes, it really struck a note with her, she felt compassion and sadness for him. They both felt his pain and her boyfriend went to the trash to retrieve it.

They opened the package and in it was a snowglobe, it really touched them, there were photos of the couple and the little girl…

It was engraved with the lovely message saying:

“We love you Katie, Nana and Papa 1/25/16”

Amarri took action she posted the pictures of the gift, she was dead set on finding the rightful owners of the gift and reunite it with the couple.

Not surprisingly her post went viral, it was shared over 40,000 times. Very luckily it caught the right persons eye!

An employee of a company that made the snow globe saw it, ‘Things Remembered’, and when they saw her post they got in touch!

They searched their records to find the person they sent the snow globe to, it was Linda Modry. Amarri could send the item back to them, it was only then she realized how special it was!

Linda said:

“She’s exceptional …This was something very special …It was for my granddaughter Katie because my son adopted her.”

She said that her granddaughter was really sad when Linda couldn’t bring the snowglobe to her in Ohio. Linda is so grateful to Amarri a,d her kindness.

Linda said:

“She’s just amazing. I can’t believe that she did this …People are basically really good, and she’s just exceptional.”

Amarri just keeps insisting that what she did was simply the right thing to do!

Amarri said:

“My mom raised us to always be good to people …I would want the same thing to happen to me.”

You can watch the emotional and touching reunion in the video below:

Kevin Blanford was overjoyed at first when he realized that he won a trip to Puerto Rico, but there was a big problem… Because he had a 7-month-old daughter he was not allowed to take his wife with him.

Kevin is a telecoms worker, he loves his wife and daughter, and nothing could make him feel sadder than taking the trip without them!

He really didn’t have a “single second of fun”.

He so wanted to show his wife how he felt about the trip without her and how much he didn’t have fun, at all!

He began to take a series of photos, he did an amazing job of looking sad on his tropical vacation without his wife!

He looked so sad in the photos that the hotel, when they saw them, really couldn’t stand by and do nothing…

Wyndham Rio Mar called him up and offered him a free repeat trip hotel stay with them, and a cruise, but this time he would get to bring his wife and little baby too.

They repeated all the photos he took, but this time you can really see he is happy!

What a difference !!

Even the little baby is having an awesome time!

One observer said: “I assume the baby is taking the pictures when not in frame.”

“You even put on the same shirts. That’s dad-level dedication!”

Every girl get to the day she has her first period, and it’s quite a normal thing of course, but for Chloe Christos, a Perth, Australia girl, things were very different when she just kept bleeding…

Chloe like most other girls looked forward to high school so much, the new things she would be doing, the big adventure that waited for her, and all the happy moments ahead!

But soon enough she would soon have to find out something would change her life forever, in the most unexpected way!

The tipping point for Chloe was after she had her first period. After this first time, the bleeding just carried on, longer than a week, longer than a month!

It turned into five years, wow, poor Chloe was losing about a pint every four days…

Still feeling awesome from my trial 💉 Please visit my funding page! www.gofundme.com/worldcongress #ChloesWorldCongressFund #WFH #RareDisease #WomenBleedToo #BleedingDisorder #IAmWBDC

A post shared by Chloe Christos (@chloechristos) on Jan 12, 2016 at 6:52am PST

Those five years were so hard, Chloe couldn’t do much of anything at all, she regularly fainted, her blood pressure was constantly low and she wasn’t allowed to go out in the car.

Chole said that the most frustrating part of the whole thing was that she loved to be physically active and that she couldn’t be anymore.

Periods were a sort of a taboo subject and Chloe knew it’s typically a personal thing, it was a little embarrasing.

She said:

“I knew it wasn’t quite right, but I was also embarrassed to talk about it. I felt very different and pretty alone.”

Five years of suffering was what it took before Chloe found the courage to look for help for her problem.

Chloe met frustration again as many doctors dismissed her problem as womens troubles:

The doctors wouldn’t take her seriously or treat her and ofter she was completely refused treatment at all even in the ER. As a female she felt she wasn’t being taken seriously at all.

Then, after some time she did manage to find a doctor who was gong to take her issue serioiusly and was going to diagnose her condition.

Chloe’s blood has low levels of a protein associated with hemophilia, just like Von Willebrand’s disease.

Combined, these indicated bleeding disorders, the kind that make it really difficult for blood to clot!

Chloe continued to suffer as the doctors continued to look for the solution to help her with her condition, they really struggled to do anyhting at all to help her.

She was started on a synthetc drug that was made to treat the low protien levels of the protein factor VIII in her body. The drug had really bad side effects but she carried on with it for seven years.

The success of it was incinsistent, and she had to take it all the time, she was desperately searching for better alternatives.

One doctor told her that the only option was to remove her uterus!

In the end she turned away from doctors and sought help in the Hemophilia Center in Adelaide, Australia. The Hemophilia Center had a little breakthrough and could give her an experimental synthetic drug, which had only previously been given to male patients.

Christos said:

“It’s the difference between being hospitalized for two weeks of the month and taking two paracetamol and having a heat pack for one day,”

Chloe said that, with the once a month injection, her periods are now normal, lasting just four to five days!

Chloe has dedicated her life to fighting her abttle and advocating for equal rights for other women with similar issues to her own.

She strives to help as many others as she can to recieve a proper diagnosis and traeatment that will work for them too.

This story could potentialls spread the word For Chloe and we hope she can reach people far and wide, raise awarenes, and help many others like her. Please SHARE with your family and friends.

One night this couple from Tallapoosa, Georgia, were relaxing, Courtney Waldon was a new mother and with her husband they were around the campfire, a regular thing they enjoyed together. What happened next would impact their lives forever…

The fateful day was the 30th September in 2016, Waldon’s life was going to change forever and the lives of her family consequently too!

Courtney had an accident that night and the campfire set her alight, covered in flames she suffered horrible burns to more than 40% of her body and her face was really burned badly over.

It happened very fast, she was standing near the fire and her husband made a terrible mistake, he stoked the fire with gasoline!

As fast as lightning her body was alive with fire, covered in flames and the pain was horrific!

Courtney said:

“It was horrible …It was the worst thing I had ever felt in my life.”

“I honestly thought I was going to die.”

Courtney’s future was firmly tied to the hospital ward, for the next 50 days she was in the ICU burns unit in the hospital, she needed multiple skin grafts and several operations.

Over the 24 months that followed she would need twelve more operations, she wouldn’t even recognize herself again the way she looked before.

Without looking the physical considerations, even then, she would have to deal with the psychological repercussions of such burns and how she would come to terms with it all.

She explained that just two weeks after that when she was released from the hospital, her husband abandoned her and her daughter…

Courtney was left with her daughter, Caroline, who was only four years old, to completely look after themselves, with her physical and emotional toll weighing heavy on her and a young daughter to care for it was almost impossible to cope!

Caroline, her daughter, said:

“I missed my mom when she was gone in the hospital”

Any 4 years old would be traumatized, but for this young girl, things seemed to get worse and worse.

And suddenly, they were homeless.

Courtney’s bills that were ever growing were quickly getting out of control, she wasn’t working so she had no income, she didn’t even know if she would ever work again.

Her injuries were really bad but especially on her hands, she didn’t know what was going to happen to her, just even in the immediate future.

Courtney couldn’t keep the roof over their heads and she had to leave their house, suddenly they were homeless and the pain and suffering were only going to get worse!

Something was about to happen to change it all though…

The local church and the community all banded together to share their love and support, the people of her community would all come together to help her!

Any good person would have done the same for her, but what this community did was of epic proportion, to say the least!

The news spread of her plight and her story of what had happened to her, everyone wanted to help her and her daughter.

Pastor Jon Ellis said:

“She asked there must be something we could do …When we asked our educators ‘What did Courtney need?’ All of them were in agreement that she needed a house.”

The Pastor went to the local construction guy, Mark Bradley to speak to him about what they could do for her.

Mark said:

“When Jon asked me about it, I was like, absolutely …Let’s do it.”

“It’s made me stronger today.”

Courtney’s tragedy has really taught her a lesson it was a hard lesson to learn but she is grateful to be here still.

She said:

“It’s made me stronger today”

Her parents are more grateful than anyone to have not lost their daughter in this terrible accident.

Courtney’s mom said:

“I was just devastated when she lost her house ..And then, all of the sudden, the community came together…and I knew that was probably the only way that she would ever be able to have her own home.”

Courtney and her daughter really had their faith in people restored, without even realizing they were bringing the community together and motivating people in the community.

The Pastor said:

“I just believe that, through Courtney, the building of this house and the process is allowing us to do greater things in the community …After this, our goal here is to build a city of refuge—a place where single moms or battered women, children, [and the] homeless would have a refuge to come to.”

If you love this story as much as we do then please share it with your friends and family, I think it really gives us a new perspective on life and how precious it is!

As most of us know it’s pretty common to see a refrigerator in the workplace or office, it’s shared and very handy, until you feel like you are providing for others when they steal your stuff!

It’s also common to hear in workplaces that where people have shared spaces, sometimes people are tempted to help themselves to your stuff, very naughty!

Well, one woman had enough if this kind of behaviors in her workplace fridge, her coffee creamer was being used up, she really was disappointed and decided that it was time to take action!

The woman kept her coffee creamer in the staff refrigerator, she had an idea to teach the person a lesson that wouldn’t be easy to forget, it was so impressionable that it went viral online!

She taped a note to her coffee creamer container an put it back in the office refrigerator for every single person to see.

It said:

“Good Morning!”

“To whomever has been enjoying my coffee creamer all week … Surprise!!!”

“You’ve been drinking my”

“BREAST MILK”

“Hope you’ve enjoyed. Cheers!”

“-B”

“P.S. It’s organic. So no worries”

If it was true or not is anyone’s guess, but you can definitely know that the culprit probably had more than second thoughts about using it again!

Someone on Reddit, called Phantom0591, posted the photo of the note, it really gathered momentum and lots of different reactions!

Squabbles123 wrote:

“Best counter to this is to replace it with a new note that says: ‘Refill Please.’”

Heyyouknowmeto wrote:

“This week just keeps getting sweeter. Captain Crunch Coffee Creamer.”

The comments just went on and on like this, it really spurred some reactions, I think that many people can empathize having been in a similar position.

We would have loved to see the person’s reaction was stealing the coffee creamer when they saw the note, that would have been priceless!

Some of the responses were really hilarious, and I bet she felt a lot better after she left the note and had a little grin to herself!

Other people have had a little fun with her idea, and made some other clear labels for the office place!

Have a look:

The main point here is to be considerate of others, don’t be mean, be kind and above all be nice to your work colleagues and don’t steal their coffee creamer!

Now and again in life, we sometimes encounter things that are so unbelievable that we think, no surely not! But sure enough this is one of those stories, it’s just so heartbreaking too!

A photographer, called ‘A.J.Laberinto’ took some really sad photos, it will surely make you sad to the pit of your stomach!

Around May of 2014, the photographer was walking the streets of Manila in the Philippines, he came across something he really had to capture on film!

Even now the photos are difficult to look at, but they do need to be shown to everyone and shared, even if it’s only to raise awareness and to see the darker side of humanity, the side we want to obliterate!

This naked toddler was sleeping in the middle of the streets, in public, on a busy staircase, there was not even one person who didn’t just walk straight past the toddler!

The photographer, Laberinto, was lost for words about it, he was shocked at what he had seen with his own two eyes! Not even one person gave more than a passing glance to the toddler as they went by.

All the people are accustomed to seeing homeless children on the streets, and begging on the streets that they all seem to have blinkers to it, like its just a normal everyday occurrence…

The photographer said on Facebook:

“There I was, camera–celfone rather, in hand turning around the corner when I saw the child. You see, only recently I’ve been taking pictures of whatever sight was in front of me strolling around Manila though not that many. So there I was, and for several seconds the baby lay there on the floor not dying but rather sound asleep. The passers-by having seen too many too much of street children and beggars knew already how to react: they just walked away.”

“After having finished taking the photos I then asked some familiar faces in the crowd, people who actually lived near those stairs, as to where the parent of that baby was. Lo and behold, a woman somewhat bedraggled with dirty clothes on showed up and immediately carried the baby away. All of this in a span of seconds. I bought the child food, by the way, four days ago and he’s still living in the streets the very bed to sleep in he ever knew.“

The cynicism and the sadness of a people whoa re so used to seeing this on the streets every single day is both touching and terrible! It truly shows the lack of humanity of some people in the world.

With solidarity, we can defeat anything, let’s be against this together, and if you like, please SHARE these powerful images with friends and family.

One consistent thing that seems to happen in all schools, at least to some extent, it’s bullying, being such a common occurrence there are many children who are made to feel awful daily! This distasteful act was happening to seven-year-old Ashley Wastakiewicz, she is in the first grade of school…

Ashley was being bullied by an older 11-year-old child in her neighborhood and it wasn’t just verbal bullying, it had started to take an even more serious turn and was becoming increasingly more aggressive towards her.

The bully was pulling and pushing Ashley off her bike constantly, and generally tormenting her continuously.

Ashley was even in the hospital one day because of the attacks that were happening to her, she was scared and understandably not feeling good about things!

The boy that was doing the bullying was charged with assault by the police, but even after that he didn’t care and they denied everything that they could!

Ashley’s mom, Christine, said:

“She has felt that nobody loves her, nobody cares about her. She feels alone …She is afraid to come outside to play. She has been cooped up most of the summer because she is afraid to come out and play with the fear of being bullied.”

It was just too much to handle everything going on for Ashley’s mother. SHe posted a desperate cry for help by creating a Facebook page called “Justice for Ashley” she was really just looking to find support and help!

Ashley’s mom Christine held out hope to hear from even a few people that knew what to do or were willing to help, but she really never thought about who would show up to help her…

There was a group of really caring people who would respond to her, a local motorcycle group had heard all about Ashley’s problem and what was going on.

The ‘bikers’ are a unison group, they gathered and decided that they really wanted to help and support her, god bless them!

James Dingmon, a motorcycle enthusiast, said:

(American Veterans Motorcycle Club of Jackson)

“We got word from other brothers at other clubs and we all met …I don’t believe in bullying. Nobody should be bullied. We wanted a show of force, that she is loved and she’s got people out here that care for her.”

Another biker who wanted to help, John Spencer, wrote:

“We made a difference tonight and helped in the widespread fight against bullying, particularly with a very serious case with a wonderful little 7 year old girl named Ashley, whom has (had) a terrible bully in her neighborhood for quite some time now and has been terrified to play outside her own home after being sent to the E.R. and continuously threatened and hurt.”

They all decided to meet up, the bikers and Ashley and her mom… They decided to meet at a local playground, the first-grader told her story…

Afterward, the whole group of motor enthusiasts escorted Ashley back to her home with dozens Harley Davidson bikes right to her doorstep!

The bikers also put on a show of solidarity by driving to the bully’s house, just to let them know that they were supporting Ashley!

Ashley said:

“I’m not scared anymore”

These bikers might seem a bit threatening, but their actions and who they are is absolutely lovely people!

Most of us love a surprise at Christmas, the thrill of getting something and not knowing what it is, but for 25-year-old Max from Maryland that is nothing further from the truth…

Max really wants to get the same gift, 17 years in a row in fact and whilst it sounds unoriginal and unimaginative, that is exactly what he wants to happen.

During the last several years Max’s sister Cassie Greshel, 30 years old, has given him a Tonka truck, but this is by no means a plain old ordinary Tonka…

What she gives him precisely is a Fire Rescue Hummer, which was made back in 2000, unfortunately, the truck has been discontinued and you can’t get it easily, apart from thorough searching long and hard on eBay, but it’s harder each year!

This Christmas was even harder, she really struggled to find one, and having no luck with finding that truck on eBay, Cassie shared her dilemma on Reddit!

Max is special, and being mentally and physically disabled his pleasures in life are quite specific, he really loves playing with Tonka Trucks!

Cassie used to have no problem finding the discontinued trucks online, but after many years of buying them on eBay, it looked like they were running aground there too now!

She said:

“They used to be really easy to find because we would just get orange ones, and then I made the mistake of finding a blue one on eBay, and now he only wants blue ones”

Max loves his Tonka toys plays with them for hours every day, making convoys of Tonkas!

His sister said that she has tried some other ways, like painting trucks or making resin copies of parts of the truck, but Max knows straight away that it’s not right. She has alerts to her phone whenever a Tonka Hammer is Listed on eBay

Max is registered blind and, for him, that means he is visually impaired… the family tried to give his different models of Tonka that are easier to find, but the model he actually wants, Cassie calls it the “holy grail for a visually impaired kid”, is really hard to get now!

He spends so much time playing with all of his trucks that a few of them are just kept for spare parts now, retired from service!

Cassie got hundreds of replies to his post on Reddit, she had asked if people could put their old Tonkas on eBay, but instead and very sweet, people said they would look for Tonkas for her!

Some people even said that they would send Cassie their own Tonka Trucks!

She wrote on Reddit:

“I’m not sure how Reddit is so much better at finding this truck then I am!”

Not only did good people she didn’t know reach out to Cassie, but they also reached out to Tonka.

Redditors shared all about Cassie’s story and her search to find a specific truck for her brother a Tonka Hummer, they are really excited to help her and her brother.

Jessica Gonzalez, owner of Tonka said:

“As soon as we received the first email, no one at this office batted an eye, and we began searching for the toy immediately”

Jessica said that the task of finding the Hummer would be hard because it was such an old toy, but also that she was positive and very hopeful that after searching the company warehouse in USA and China that they could find something for Max!

Jessica said:

“…we plan on sending her as many of those hummer trucks we can find, as well as some additional Tonka trucks …Since he has special requests like no rubber wheels, action levers, and a need for bright colors (he’s legally blind), we plan on making some custom adjustments to some other vehicles in hopes that he’ll like those as well.”

This Christmas Cassie really isn’t going to have to worry about scouring eBay to find one of these toys for her brother!

The family has an emergency backup, a red hummer hidden in a closet for a backup, this year they really won’t have to worry about Max being let down and disappointed. Either a vehicle from a Redditor or a surprise from Tonka he will at least have one present to open at Christmas!

Cassie said:

“It’s like an all-year mission, but we haven’t failed him yet!”

We hope Cassie, for your brother that you get enough Toys for many Christmases to come and that your brother will really enjoy this special time of year!

We really commend the senior people of this world who really don’t let their age define who they are. Far too commonplace are situations where the elderly are told what to do and what not to do…

The real key to living a long life is to keep active, keep yourself as busy as you can, every day. That’s exactly what this 82-year-old Jesse Langunas was all about!

He lives with his 63-year-old wife, called Joyce, everything was going really well until they found a hole in the shed roof. Like most of us, he got a quote from a builder to have the work done for him, but it just cost too much!

Jesse being the active guy he is decided to fix it himself, how hard could it be right?

Jesse went to the store and bought a safety harness, very sensible so far, he thought if he tumbled off the roof he would still be safe. There was only one little problem, he couldn’t figure out how to put it on!

He could have watched a video online to know how to do it, but no, he went to his local fire station to ask them instead, genius, it makes perfect sense!

He went up to a couple of firefighters in the station and they showed him how to put it on properly, they didn’t know what he was intending at this point though.

In the fire station, Daryl Burns, sat in his office overheard the conversation between his firefighters and Jesse.

Daryl said that:

“Sean was trying to put the harness on himself and came to find out Jesse was trying to get on the roof to work on his shed …[I thought] I don’t know if that’s the best idea.”

He went on to say:

“All of us had an opportunity with a little bit of time in our afternoon and it was like we can do something good with it”

The firefighters were not about to let him do the work himself and they were a little concerned for him, they went to his house and they did the work for him, how amazing, what amazing people!

Jesse said:

“They said, you go and start on it, and when we get off, we’ll help you come and finish it”

Jesse’s wife was even more impressed by the firefighter’s action, she was so happy they did such a kind thing for them, she cooked up a homemade meal for them all to enjoy when they had finished working on the roof!

The roof now at Jesse’s house is completely suited up, no leaks in sight, at all! Jesse is overjoyed at the whole thing that happened!

He said finally, about it all, that the best thing was really that:

“I’m glad to say now I have four friends”

Thank you so much to the amazing firefighters, and Jesse you are an inspiration to us all!

Amusing a baby is really hard sometimes and knowing what to do can be a little bit of luck too sometimes. They will be amazed at what you do when you don’t think it’s anything special and other times you think you have done something amazing and there is just no reaction!

This year, on the 8th December, In Singapore a maid tried to entertain a 7-month-old baby called Masha by shaking a thermal flask? She really hadn’t realized that the flask was not closed properly!

The boiling water in the flash shot out as she shook it, all over the baby’s right arm, scalding her, she cried out in pain and was very upset, as you can imagine!

Masha’s mother, Jinghan Naan, in a Facebook post, said:

“Blisters were already starting to form on her pink skin”

Thankfully the baby’s father, Aizat, was there and able to take action fast, he poured cold water over her arm and the burn as quickly as possible. The maid wanted to console Masha but was worried about touching her now.

The Maid sincerely apologized to everyone there and Masha’a parents took her to the hospital, some of the people accepted her apology, but Jinghan was still very upset with her.

She said:

“I never said a word to her but I was furious …Hateful and spiteful thoughts filled my mind. Somehow, it irked me that Aizat and his siblings were being so cheery and smiley in order to distract Masha’s attention away from the burns.”

On the journey to the hospital, Jingahn was very quiet…

Aizat said:

“It was an accident boop”

He was trying desperately to soften the tension, but his wife didn’t respond at all, in fact when they arrived at the hospital, her irritation grew even more!

But Jinghan went on to say:

“It broke my heart to hear Masha’s cries as they dressed her wound …My rage grew; my baby was suffering unnecessarily because of the helper’s carelessness.”

When they got back to the car Masha was so incredibly tired she fell asleep on her papa’s shoulder, her eyes red and puffy from crying so much!

The couple was talking and as Aizat began to speak Jinghan finished his sentence thinking that she knew what he was going to say…

“Later when we go back . . .” he started.

“Yeah. We’re going to send her (the maid) back. She’s fired…” Jinghan finished the sentence for him!

That was not what Aizat was going to say though…

He said again what he wanted to say:

“Later when we go back, ask if she is ok.”

Jinghan really could not believe her ears, she sat and listened as her husband explained more:

“The water probably spilled on her as well. We didn’t even bother to ask if she was ok.”

His wife really didn’t see it that way at all, she thought that if it were not for the maid it would have never happened in the first place.

She said:

“But this is her fault!”

He said in return:

“Yeah, but she’s human too…”

Jinghan then thought a little about what he was saying and realized that it made sense, she had not shown any compassion for the maid at all in her anger.

The maid had only been working there for one week and was still getting to know what to do and learning her role there, she had made a big mistake, but not completely unforgivable.

Jinghan said:

“I fooled myself into thinking that how I acted when times were easy was a testament to my faith and character. I couldn’t be more wrong …This has served as a huge lesson for me. I hope that by sharing this, we can all practice more magnanimity, patience and compassion in the most trying of times.”

Jinghan cleared up many details in a recent update.

According to the post she made, Masha is making a great recovery, but she still can’t swim yet though. The maid is still diligently working for the family too!

It really is great that everything has worked out ok after such a terrible mistake it could have been considerably worse, her father’s quick actions with the cold water no doubt really helped too!

Good luck Masha we hope that you recover quickly and send you love and prayers to be happy and well!

Two police officers went to investigate an abandoned house over in Milwaukee, but they really weren’t sure what they would encounter when they got there. They found a two-year-old toddler in the house!

They really tried to make her feel super safe and secure, after all, they are both dads too! 

Officers Dan Resnick and Vin Paolo responded to the call where a pregnant woman, with her toddler, who was living in an empty and boarded up two-story house. The House was on 29th Street near West Locust Street in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

On entry into the house they saw a pregnant woman, she looked young, squatting inside, she said that she had lost her job and she had nowhere else to go.

The house was completely freezing cold, with no electricity and no heating at all, it was super cold!

Pablo said:

“[There was a] Broken upstairs windows, draft through the house, clothes and garbage and beds amongst the house”

On entering the bedroom, Resnik saw a 2-year-old toddler under a pile of winter sheets on the bed.

Resnik said:

“I just moved the sheets and that’s when I saw the two-year-old for the first time”

The little boy was wrapped in two or three jackets and was deep asleep in the cold room, the only food in the house was a lonesome bag of chips.

Paolo got the boy and brought him inside his warm squad car, he called a colleague to bring some McDonald’s for the very hungry looking boy.

Paolo remembered:

“Oh, he was really hungry. He scarfed it down …He warmed up to us fairly quickly, but he didn’t say very many words. He did say mama and that’s about it”

“It hurts my heart to see children like this. It’s unfortunate, but we see this quite often”

Paolo has five adopted Foster children himself and really feels compassion for children like this, in these unfortunate circumstances.

Paolo said:

“Coworkers often joke with me as if I’m going to take home every child that I see, and I really wish that I could”

The boy sat on his knee and ate up his chicken nuggets and fries, Resnick took a photo of them both.

The lovely photo that the Officer snapped and the toddler has been around after being uploaded by a friend of Paolo’s, called Paulette Rutter Drankiewicz, on Facebook.

The post has received well over 4,500 reactions and over 2,400 shares!

Jennifer Ralston said on Facebook:

“I see this officer at work sometimes daily, he does great work!” 

Paolo’s wife, Mel Williams, said:

“He did it because he’s a loving, kind, compassionate, great person with a huge heart. He did it because he’s a dad, and wants every child to feel loved, safe, and have a full belly”

“We don’t want recognition,” Paolo told the Journal Sentinel. “It’s just what we do because we’re dads, we’re people.”

The Milwaukee police have announced that Child Protective Services have custody of the boy and his mother is working closely with social services to find a permanent accommodation.

All in all its great news for the toddler who will now live a much more enriched safer life and a great thank you to the police officers involved too!

Sometimes in life things feel like they are all against us, this woman felt like that, she had a really awful tile, she gave up her children to social services and sought professional help to try to improve the situation!

After she had reunited with her children again the local community banded together and gave her a gift, it was $625 dollars of gift cards, what an amazing start for her and a wonderful gift from concerned and kind people around her.

It didn’t stop there and there was another surprise waiting for her…

From South Carolina, Jessica McCutcheon was experiencing a really difficult year, recovering from domestic violence and drug abuse problems her children stayed with carers on behalf of social services while she could get better and recover.

When she was fit and able to get her children back from the social services the community wanted Jessica to really have a fresh start in life and achieve the stability she desperately looked for.

The people that cared for one of her children, 2 years old Harper, had cooked up a plan and they couldn’t wait to do it! They knew that she was working two jobs just to pay all her bills and they wanted to make her life a little easier for her.

Shannon said:

“We just felt she was part of our family and we just felt that she needed her kids to have a good Christmas and we wanted to be a part of that”

They had a great idea! Kate Sepko, Shannon’s neighbor works at the North Greenville University as a cheerleading coach, they got some of the students there to help too!

The students were able to amazingly and very kindly make a donation of $625 for Jessica.

Kate said:

“Some of them were giving $5, $10, $20. It just impressed me so much, you know, $5, $10 is a big deal for these kids. That’s a meal or a couple meals”

It was all given to Jessica in gift cards in a lovely gift box. When she opened the box she just cried, she was so touched by what they had done for her!

But there was even more to come…

In the emotional toll and tears of happiness for the gift, Jessica was given some car keys, she had been given a car!

People had realized that she had to keep borrowing other peoples cars to get the kids to school and do jobs, so they decided it was the time that she had a car of her own!!

Jessica was so happy, she could hardly believe what was happening to her!

she said:

“It still brings tears to my eyes to know those young people who are trying to start their life actually care enough about me and my children”

People realized that she was recovering from domestic violence and left her some lovely messages of support on Facebook!

One Facebook user wrote:

“Personally I think this story is wonderful and good for her trying to get her life straight and do the right thing for her and her kids.”

Someone else Wrote too:

“God bless these people for helping someone that is obviously trying to do better!”

See the video below for yourself:

Nobody gets married with the intention of breaking up, but nevertheless, people do get married then decide to break up, usually because of the emotional turmoil of toil of some sort. They fight for the children and the assets that they own, or partially own… Dr. Scott Becker 30 years ago had a particularly difficult divorce…

The Doctor, Scott had to experience his daughter torn from him and his life all because his wife decided to run away with her. He could then only wonder how his daughter was growing up without him in her life!

Scott never gave up on his daughter even many decades later, he was always thinking about her and how he might be able to reunite with her, after some time his efforts really did pay off.

For quite a few years after his marriage had failed, Scott tried his best to find his daughter, in vain. He only wanted to have a normal father and daughter relationship and some conversations with her too! Spending many thousands of dollars on private investigators but none of them could help him find his daughter, called April.

Many years down the line, 20 years to be exact, after looking for her nearly constantly, Scott decided to use the power of the internet to help him find her! He set up a website called aprilbecker.com he hoped that his daughter would somehow see it and get in touch with him!

At last, the miracle happened, he could hardly believe it! It turns out that April was also desperately looking for him too! One afternoon she just googles for “Scott Robert Becker” and sure enough landed on the web page he had set up in hopes of finding her!

April found on the website that there was a note for her, like a handwritten note, her dad had written the note for her, it was so she would contact him, and she could see that her dad was desperate to contact her.

April says the letter hot her hard…

She said:

“I must have cried for three hours straight”

She was overjoyed with the whole event of finding her father that she was forced to leave when she was only two months old! She couldn’t wait to talk to him and catch up on all the things they had missed!

Scott was a little reluctant to email her back, it was so nerve-racking to finally find her, he knew just how he would test to see if it was really her!

The test he went for was asking her:

“What’s your mother’s maiden name and are you green?”

April, being the real daughter, passed the test no problem at all!

She said the correct maiden name and for her mother, and she said:

“Of course, I’m green. My birthday is St. Patrick’s Day”

She knew exactly what he was asking of her, Scott knew that he had found his baby at last!

There are no words that Scott could find to express how he felt, all the emotions when he saw her again, like the huge hole in his life had been filled again, he was at peace with himself again.

April said:

“Thirty years have passed. He missed everything …He missed high school. He missed junior high. He missed me being active in drama and theater. He missed my kids being born.”

Scott had even missed being a grandfather, but he was determined to catch up on lost time!

Scott’s ex-wife had told his daughter little to nothing about him, what a great shame…

April said:

“My mom is an excellent woman. She did a good job. But every child deserves to know their mother and their father”

She also said that she is a huge fan of children’s rights and advocates good parenting, with everything that she went through in her childhood she wants to help protect other children from having to endure the same as she did growing up!

When we get married we commonly say ‘until death do we part’ but for this amazing guy it goes beyond this for his wife that passed away, but he still truly loved… He continued to eat at the restaurant that they used to enjoy together. Now he takes her framed photo and has it on the table next to him as he eats, to feel close to her!

This amazing guy, Clarence Purvis, 93, found love in his life, she was called Carolyn Todd, when she was, back in the day, just 16 years old, when they first met each other, he was 24 at that time! About a year later they married each other.

This was to be the start of 63 years together, in that time their love just grew stronger and stronger and their lives grew closer, all the time filled with love and understanding

As Clarence tells the story their time together was the stuff of fairy tales, it was a one in a million example of true love that fairy tale that everyone searched for, but very few actually find!

Clarence said:

“Ain’t nobody loved one another more than me and my wife loved one another. I wanted what she wanted and she wanted what I wanted”

Dining at the same place for lunch for the last 13 years, Clarence and his wife went to the Smith’s Restaurant in Reidsville with religious dedication. Even when four years back Carolyn died he still didn’t leave her out, he took her photo to the restaurant and placed it on the table to remember her!

He said:

“She was always with me when we were livin’. She’s with me now”

Lots of concerned people tried to convince Clarence that he is simply a little bit lonely and he would be so much better off if he moved forward and tried to move on. It’s simply the case that some people just don’t believe in the concept of true love as Clarence knows that it exists for his wife and him.

He said:

“They said if I get me a girlfriend things will be better. I could ask her, could I get me a girlfriend? You know what she’d say? If you want too. That’s how we operated”

Around four times every day Clarence visits the grave of Carolyn a the Cemetery Glennville, he said it’s because he loved her so much and he misses her!

He said:

“I imagine I come 125 times a month …I love her that much. And miss her that much. And think she would with me.”

Clarence’s behavior could seem a little over the top and worrying, and that Clarance can’t move on with his life. However, the other side of the story is that they had found true love between them. Clarence just is showing really that true love never dies!

How amazing, if you think so to then SHARE with your friends and family, and watch below to see more!

One Christmas Cecil Rodgers was staying with family and very excited to be there, he received a disturbing call from someone who claimed to be his eldest grandson, it was only set to dampen his spirits….

The guy who called him said he had been in a car crash and really needed his help!

Cecil said:

“A voice comes on and says, ‘Papaw, this is your oldest grandson. I’m in trouble…He said, ‘I hit a woman’s car and she was seven months pregnant. And they charged me with drunken driving and I’m in jail.”

Cecil then said that a lawyer “appeared” to come on the phone at this stage to talk to him and tell him what he needed to do next…

He said:

“I’m going to try to get him out so he can drive home.”

He gave Cecil instructions to send them $2,300 by a direct store to store type of transfer, that would pay for his grandsons’ bail!

The “lawyer” told Cecil to go the local Walmart and then transfer the money to the Walmart in Bel Air, in Maryland.

He was really concerned for his grandson, Cecil drew out $2,300 from his bank and went to his Walmart Store as he had been told to do…

The clerk that day in the store was Audrella Taylor, she would be dealing with the transaction that day, thankfully this was a good thing!

Cecil told the clerk about what was happening to him and what he had to do, Audrella was experienced in the store and worked there for years, the alarm bells were ringing loudly in her thoughts when she heard his story!

Audrella said:

“He said something about somebody was locked up in jail, he got a call and he needed to send $2,300 …I said I am going to refuse the sender. I’m not going to let you send that money. I think you are being scammed.”

She sensed that something wasn’t right and suggested he call his family first, just to check what was going on and to see if anyone had heard about the accident.

Audrella was right, no one else had heard about the accident, his grandson was safe at college, the Walmart store manager, called Dominic Gross, was very happy with the staff member who raised the alarm and for her super fast thinking!

He said:

“We are very happy with Audrella and all our customer service associates who help in that manner”

Also, he went to say that they are now training staff to recognize if someone is being scammed like this again!

Cecil said:

“I don’t have much”

Which is why he was so pleased that woman had really helped him from being scammed.

There are millions of people, but especially seniors who are the victims of financial fraud, we need to look after our elderly, and help protect them from scammers and bad people like this!

Please SHARE the story and help others not get scammed with this rouse!

One year on the holiday season Bobby Puryear was passing through, he went to the ATM to get some cash but discovered that there was a bunch of money already left in the tray! He was shocked and knew straight away what he was going to do…

He thought that someone had left it behind so he picked it up and realized that there was $500 there. That was no small amount at all, we have heard to saying before right, finders keepers, losers weepers…..

Well, it’s not a very nice expression at all, certainly not in this case anyway, there is almost definitely something the bank can do to find out who it belongs to!

He really wanted the money to find its way back to its owner so he drove around to the bank to speak to someone that could help him! When he got to the bank he told the teller he had found the money and what had happened?

He wanted to give her the money but she wouldn’t take it, instead, she called for the manager!

When the manager came he just asked him what he expected him to do with the money?!?

Puryear was really baffled, surely he was having a weird dream right? No, he asked if they would check who used the ATM just before him so they could return the money….

The manager then agreed and Puryear shared to Facebook, the manager had Puryear’s number to contact him also.

The very next day after this he got a call from the bank, while he was working, they found the owner of the cash!

He was on a three-way call with the manager and the 92-year-old lady called Edith who had lost the money. Edith drew the $500 for her monthly rent and without it, she would have been both upset and lost, what an awful thing to lose $500 especially considering her financial situation!

Edith was so grateful that she wanted to give Puryear the $20 that she didn’t need for her rent, as a reward… That was all the money was left!

Puryear said:

“I told her absolutely not, and have a great day”

When he came off the phone he realized that she only has this for the rest of the month; just $20! That really didn’t seem right at all…

Puyear called the bank manager again and told him to transfer $200 from his account the elderly lady’s account, how lovely!!

As he was speaking to the bank a co-worker overheard what was going on, the whole story and felt touched too, they also contributed to the elderly lady, he told Puryear he wanted to give $100 too!

Puryear felt touched that another person felt like that too, but he didn’t realize that this was just the beginning….

About an hour on the bank called Puryear again, it was the manager again, who told him that he shared the story with all the tellers and they too grouped together and put in another $300 too!

Puryear said on Facebook:

“So today was a good day …Merry Christmas a little early, Edith.”

This guy’s simple thoughtful act of kindness of returning the money from the ATM to the rightful owner turned into something much bigger and even nobler.

All this was posted to Facebook and it has been shared over 180,000 times all around the world, how awesome!

Puryear went straight to Facebook to explain his actions, in today’s world where many people just seem to look out for themselves then this act is even more gracious and inspiring to us all!

This small act really touch everyone who read the story because it was so genuine and kind!

Puryear said:

“I mean, this is just something small, but just think if everybody would just do something kind for someone every day …Imagine what this would be like.”

To Puryear $200 was a lot of money and quite a big deal to him and he couldn’t do this very often at all, but as he wrote he just couldn’t stand the thought of this elderly lady cold or not being able to eat!

If you love this story as much as we did then SHARE with friends and family and inspire others!

It was December 5th and this day was going to be a cherished memory for the family of 2 year old Miles Agnew. Santa made a special trip to the hospital this year for this little boy, he rushed there so he could sit on his knee for the very last time ever!

Sadly Miles has a condition that he was born with called microcephaly, spastic quad cerebral palsy, and cortical vision impairment, brain malformations, and a feeding intolerance.

When Miles was three months old he was adopted by his now parents, Michelle and Sean Agnew, the couple also have two other children Taveon, 11 and Hailey, 13.

Michelle said:

“With the turn in Miles’ health and trying to make more memories as quickly as we can we didn’t think we would be able to do our Santa visit”

When he landed in hospital permanently then Santa came to him and tanks to the Secret Sleigh Project, an organisation that gives Santa visits to children who are very sick, either in hospital or at their homes.

Michelle said:

“I’m sure if Miles could speak, he would have been excited to see Santa”

“Miles was very weak during his Santa visit, unfortunately [but] I think he appreciates it and he would have been pretty excited if he was awake.”

The Secret Sleigh Project Facebook page said:

“The family was grateful to have Santa there and to get pictures with all of their children, one last time”

Over recent years the Agnews have been through the loss of their two youngest children, they had genetic disorders, their names were Mannix and Maggie.

The family really doesn’t assume anything anymore, they are thankful for everything that life give to them, they treasure all their memories with family ever so much more!

Michelle said:

“Although we have had so much heartache in our lives we try our hardest to keep moving forward”

Santa was played by the lovely Jerry Bodily and he treated Miles and his other siblings to an hour long visit, they had pictures together and Miles got to sleep on his Lap.

Jerry said:

“I can’t lie, I got choked up …And there was a tear in Santa’s eye, but this was for this family’s memory”

The whole day was completely special to all involved, especially Michelle and Sean, they are so grateful to those who made those special memories possible.

Michelle said:

“We are so fortunate for all the good times we’ve shared together and are so grateful for the friends, family and medical community that have supported us …Miles is such a special little boy who is very, very loved in our family.”

All our thoughts and prayers are for the family this Christmas!

There is always one thing in a couple’s lives that completely changes everything in one fell swoop, it alters the schedules for life, that you might have decided. Each and every single mother can vouch for the fact that children are not all coos and grins, looking after a newborn is hard work, but worth it!

Loretta Cyrus, 41 years old and residing in Michigan really knows this well. When she was the tender age of 18 and then called Loretta Pullins, she found out that she was pregnant, she wasn’t married at the time…

At the time her boyfriend responded to the news by saying “You’re not going to keep it, are you?”, but Loretta said that she was going to have the baby and he then left her to cope all by herself!

It wasn’t long after this that she discovered that a lump on the side of her neck…

She had been tired and sick for months, the weight was really dropping off her too…

She visited the doctor in the end and that led to a biopsy and terrible news: She had a disease called Hodgkin’s disease, its a sort of cancer that affects the lymphatic system.

The Doctors advised her that if she started chemotherapy and radiation therapy straight away that she would have much better chances of living, but on the other hand it would kill her unborn baby, the choice was hers to make.

Loretta wouldn’t do it, she wanted her baby to have life and be born, it was a risk she was more than willing to take!

It was a huge risk and it nearly was fatal to her…

Doctors were not able to monitor the state of her cancer as it worked its way through her neck and chest to her abdomen and even under her arms, poor brave girl!

Towards the end of her pregnancy, the physicians started administering targeted radiation treatments to her chest so she was able to keep breathing and to keep the cancer in her chest at bay.

At about seven months her doctor induced labor, little Alana was born weighing 4 pounds and 10 ½ ounces…. After this Loretta’s treatment really started!

The chemotherapy really made her lose her hair fast and she was so incredibly thin too, but it really killed off the cancer too, she was at last cancer free!

Unfortunately, that wasn’t the only problem that she had, she also had an ovarian tumor, o bowel obstruction and a very nearly fatal car accident, all affecting her life very seriously.

She was, however, such a strong girl and she survived it all, her daughter by her side all the time, her reason to live and to fight on!

Alana, her daughter said:

“My mom’s amazing!! …Sometimes when bad things happen, people kind of fall, and she doesn’t. When something bad happens, she gets back up and keeps going.”

In Tennessee, this dairy cow, Maybelle had been producing milk for around eight years for her previous owners, she was healthy and cared for well by them. But like many cows over five years old she was not producing as much milk anymore.

Her previous owners were very grateful for the years she had produced good milk and they were very happy to surrender her to the sanctuary called The Gentle Barn.

Andrea Burritt, the sanctuary Manager was happy to receive Maybelle and she wouldn’t have to produce any more milk again for people.

She could now spend her time in comfy stalls and have nice deep bedding and graze in the fields in the lovely pastures on the sanctuary.

But even though Maybelle had a wonderful environment, comfy and relaxed she was still pacing and crying, she was really frantic!

Andrea was really concerned for her, and what was wrong, it was really hard to see her so distressed, she said that it made her feel awful!

She said:

“She would look you right in the eye, and just scream. You knew something was wrong, and it was just hard trying to figure out how we could help and what we could do.”

The only time Andrea had seen her stressed like this before was when she had been separated from her baby. No one knew if she had a baby, but it certainly looked like she did.

Like us, humans animals have extremely strong bonds with their young. Mothers love is clearly what seemed to be compelling her to feel like this, she was trying to tell everyone what was wrong!

The family that owned Maybelle didn’t have a phone so the Gentle Barn confounder, Jay Weiner, went over to the farm to see if she had a baby on site, he had a trailed just in case they did have her baby there!

Sure enough, there was a calf, and it was Maybelle’s baby, the little calf was male and 9 months old, called Miles, how sweet!

Miles was over the age of weaning and was completely self-sufficient now, but he was next to Maybelle’s pasture and they saw each other every day!

They talked about what to do and in the end, they decided that Miles should also stay with her mom, they loaded her onto the trailer and headed back with her…

As soon as Maybelle heard the calf, she knew it was hers, everyone was so pleased to see her happy again!

Andrea said:

“We ran to Maybelle and told her, We have your baby, we have your baby”

“And she just stood at the corner of the pasture until she saw that trailer come. Then she started chasing the trailer across the pasture up to the top.”

Maybelle was calm again and all was well with the two of them, she even started eating again, because she hadn’t been eating she had been moved to the Gentle Barn.

As another complete surprise to everyone, months later Maybelle was found to be pregnant! She was pregnant when she was brought to the sanctuary but no-one had realized that she was at the time!

Maybelle had a little girl, she was called Eclipse, now Maybelle, Miles, and Eclipse are all together on the sanctuary at the Gentle Barn, these lovely cows will have such an awesome time together!
