Something happened today which has left me not only speechless, but actually took my breath away.
This morning a member of this forum and his wife came in for lunch while I was out doing the banking. Before they left they quietly left an envelope with my name on it.
Inside that envelope was a check to St. Baldricks - a check which represents 1/10th of my entire goal. As I stood staring at this check my staff thought for sure they were going to have to call an ambulance for me, as I had stopped breathing, and could not even blink.
Over the course of the day I was brought to tears several times just thinking about the generosity of this wonderful couple. Truly I have been deeply moved by this remarkable donation.
So many of you have been so kind, so generous, and so loving. This entire experience has been made so much more meaningful because of so many folks from this forum, and I am forever grateful.
Tomorrow would have been my sister's 53rd birthday. I, along with six of my remaining siblings and our mother, will be in Philadelphia together to share time in her memory. When we visit the cemetary, I will tell her what a difference she has made, and that she is being memorialized in a way I never would have dreamed.
Many thanks.
