Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings all around the world
I would like to thank the lady behind me at Tim Hortons this morning on Lauzon near the WFCU. The debit machine was down at drive thru so they asked me to go in but had already given me all my order. I went in and that wasn't working either. (Whole system was down). I didn't have cash, the lady behind me handed the guy a $20 to pay for my order. I have done this for others but this is the first time it happened to me. So grateful to you !! Thank you so much for your generosity. Hope they gave you your change back. :)
I'd like to thank the two gentlemen who stopped to thank my daughter today. She was driving through a construction zone and had to go on the shoulder for part of it. She hit a soft spot and her front end slipped down a small slope. The first gentleman immediately pulled over to see that she was okay and was going to stay with her until I got there. As I was on my way she called back to let me know another gentleman had stopped with a pickup truck and a strap and pulled her car back up to the road. I wish she had got their names so I can thank them personally so I hope they see this.
Started with a phone call to 911 all because wifey thought she could do it on her own NOT. First responder were awesome to my wife who was having chest pain and shortness of breath, they not only treated her with the greatest respect, as my wife tells me later they not only took the time with her, but they also were very gentle trying to get an IV into her arm and they just couldn't find a vain even though the driver pulled over twice.
Now unto the ER room the nurses and Dr took the time to ask her all the questions while they waited for me and a friend Sara to get there. They were awesome all of them. Then unto her room they take her to 2nd floor and got her all settled for the night. Through all this because they took the time with her and asked all kind of guestions making her feel she was the most important patient my deepest gratitude to all the nurses at Leamington Hospital. You may be a small hospital but to us you are one of the best in the county for us old folks. So we want to say thank you all for your kindness and patience you have shown us, but to any of us who have to go to your ER for any reason. Blessing to all of you, may God continue in all your lives and watch over you all
Around 12:45am I had fallen in a parking lot. A gentleman riding his bike had stopped and asked if everything was okay I explained what had happened and he rushed to my aid. He helped me up and picked up all my belongings and even my tips and put them in my bag for me. He assisted me to my car and made sure I was okay. When I offered him some money for helping me he turned it down and said it's what good people do. I didnt catch his name sadly. But would just like him to know I appreciate it more than he will ever know.
There are still amazing people in the world and I got lucky enough to meet one tonight
My son and I found a baby stroller around 8:30, Tuesday September 3rd in the parking lot at Winners on Tecumseh and Lauzon Prkway. We think you probably had a crying baby and were in hurry and forgot it. We took it into Winners and hope you or someone you know sees this post so you can get it back.
To the man and women who sat on their front porch and watched my baby brother being taken in an ambulance and had the nerve to see us getting in our car to leave and say "dont ever park in my f-ing driveway again" and how you hoped my brother dies- in those exact words. I want you to know that we had no where else to park, because the ambulance needed to get to my brother who just tried committing suicide. I just want you to know that I hope the little girl that was sitting in your lap doesn't grow up to have mental health issues. I will be heart broken for you and her. Today we went back and cleaned the house for him, and my mom told you that he wasnt dead but in a coma instead, you said that you were glad for that and that we just better not ever park in your driveway again. I have never been exposed to someone with so much hate. I feel bad for the baby girl that only has you to look up too. We are hoping he pulls out of the coma hes in and can start getting more help. I love my brother and I wish you didnt make this terrible time worse for us. Karma works in weird ways.
Please keep my brother and family in your prayers and I'll keep you in mine.
