To the two young gentlemen at Tim Hortons on Walker and Wyandotte today with the waterguns at approximately 1 or 2pm. You may be wondering why the girl at the counter told you your order was free.
I saw how you assisted the elderly woman with the cane who was having trouble stepping up from the parking lot to the sidewalk. One of you offered her your arm and helped her to the door. It may seem like a small thing but your kind gesture was noticed! People today seem to think all young people have no manners or courtesy but you certainly showed how well your parents raised you. I hope you have a wonderful day.

I just wanted to say thank you to the gentleman who called an ambulance for the woman crossing the street on Howard Ave. Unfortunately for the rest of you, you made it to the 'bad sightings' column :(

Spotted today at Summer Fest.

This morning as I was merging off of E.C. Row on Jefferson my car hydroplaned and I swerved completely and ended up half way into the ditch. Boy did it scare me but luckily I am okay.
A huge thank you to the many concerned drivers who slowed down so I could give them the "I am Okay" Thumbs up and to a few who actually got out of their car in the windy rain to come talk to me. Particularly the woman on the phone who seemed more distressed than I was at that point. So many great people out there concerned for a strangers well being. I truly appreciate it.

Also a large thank you to the Windsor Police officer who waited for the 2 hour towing fiasco to resolve itself and made sure anyone taking that exit remained safe during the nasty weather!

Despite heavy rain/ high winds and cool temps, there were still some vendors who displayed their goods, some surrounded by tarps to keep the "weather" out .. others just braving the rain covering their produce. People like me who attend the market no matter what the weather conditions, I would like to say thank you. To those vendors who decided it might be best to stay home, I don't blame you. You may have been the "wise" ones.

I have a 14 year old daughter with special needs. She uses a wheelchair for mobility and we have lifts in our house to get her around from her bedroom upstairs to our downstairs level. Last week her chairlift stopped working. I had a tech from Motion Specialties come out to fix it thinking it was just the battery that died. He found out that her chairlift needed a new circuit board and the quote I got for the repairs was going to be about $750. We had recently been cut off our daughter's disability benefits and we don't have that kind of money for repairs that used to be covered by her benefits. This past week has been very challenging for us. I have a bad back and with my daughter being almost my size I can't move her around myself. My husband leaves for work at 4:30am every day and this past week he has had to wake my daughter up at 4am to carry her downstairs for the day. In order to get the lift repaired we had to come up with the money first. Knowing our desperate situation my mom paid with her credit card, even though she can't really afford it since my dad passed away last year. I was going to pay her back a little at a time but it would take me a while. This was a sudden and unexpected large expense for something we can't do without.
Today I got a call from Motion Specialties. Jessica is the girl I spoke with and she told me she had some good news. What she told me next blew me away and I immediately became too choked up to even speak at first. An "anonymous" gentleman offered to pay for the repairs to her chairlift. While he was having repairs done at his house he asked if they (Motion Specialties) ever came across families that could not afford the repairs and he was told my daughter's situation. He told them to tell me not to worry, he would pay for the repairs. I still can't wrap my head around the fact that a stranger would step forward to help out with such a large cost of a repair for a family he doesn't know. I was in tears, grateful doesn't even begin to describe how I feel. This past week has been so stressful and I have felt so bad for my daughter having to be woken up at 4am to be carried downstairs (she's over 100lbs) by her dad. My husband has a very physically demanding job and he's been carrying her everywhere in the house after a long 12 hour workday.
I believe in miracles yet never expected one to come from someone we don't know. Whoever you are , Sir, we want to express our most heartfelt gratitude. You are an Angel and have restored my faith that there are still some good, caring people out there. Thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart! My daughter Kalli would thank you also if she could speak.
(Thank you also to Jessica at Motion Specialties who passed this message on to me and was also choked up about such a wonderful good deed.)

Be blessed in all you do!

Signed
- Kalli's very grateful Mom

thanks to the person in front of me at Tim Hortons on Huron LIne about 10:00 pm who paid for myself and my co-workers coffees and Ice Cap. It was very much appreciated
