On September 19 I went into Windsor Regional Ouellette campus for hip replacement surgery. It was a great experience every step of the way, from check in to discharge. Every single nurse, doctor, physio person, and house keeping were very friendly and helpful. Special spotted to ALL the nurses on the 6th floor!! I have a horrible memory with names but all of you were awesome, very kind and attentive! I do remember Karli who was my nurse on Thursday and for discharge. You are amazing and kind hearted and honest! (If I win I'll be back to see you lol)

To the ladies working at shoppers on Wyandotte and Lawrence last weekend in the evening. You did a great job. You were both extremely patient with EVERY customer. I know of you said you were short staff and you usually only work the cosmetic counter, but you took you time and treated every customer with respect and a kind smile. Its been along time since I experienced such customer service from shoppers drug mart. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. From lady buying formula with all the coupons making you line longer, sorry.

My mother and I decided to pop into Pho Maxim for lunch today. When we entered I noticed a family of four dining in the centre of the restaurant. The little girl seated with them was so adorable, I couldn't help but turn around in my chair a few times to smile at her. My mom and I ordered and continued to chat. As the family was packing up, the little girls aunt sparked up a quick conversation with us. She apologized for her neice being loud in the restaurant. I explained that I quite enjoyed it and am used to more noise, myself having 4 small children at home. As the family headed out, the aunt told us to have a good day and to enjoy our lunch. My mom and I then lapped up the Pho, talking about just how good it was! Little did we know just how good that meal would be. My mom walked to the register but quickly returned, shocked! She said "it's already been paid for. The women sitting at the table next to us paid for it all!!!" We were so shocked and heartfelt over this, I could feel the tears welling up in my eyes. My mom and I both want to thank these wonderful women for being so kind and we want them to know we will continue the chain and pay it forward. Thank you ladies!!!!

Today my car started smoking at the intersection of cabana and dougall. Not knowing what I should do, I turned the car off, put my 4 ways on and called my brother for help who is a mechanic. While I was standing there waiting for him and basically directing traffic, I had many people stop to see if I was Okay, ask if I needed help and asked if I had called someone. Two men then parked their cars away from the intersection and walked through traffic to get to me. This was during rush hour traffic and during the hottest part of the day. Together, the two men and my brother safely pushed my car across the intersection to the shoulder of the road on the other side. A very big thank you to everyone who cared for me today, and a special thank you to the two men who took time out of their days to help a stranger in need. I hope good things come to each of you soon!

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! to the firemen, policemen and EMT's and to the total strangers that took time out of their busy lives to stop and check, and even stay with, give statements regarding the accident on the dougall on ramp last night. No parent EVER wants to get that phone call and what we saw as we approached made my heart sink, but each and every one of you took care of my daughter as if she were your own and I can never ever thank you enough! I wish I got names so I could thank you personally, hopefully you will see this.

to the construction workers working in front of the medical center at Tecumseh an Howard for moving there trucks etc so that I could get through in my wheelchair.

I just wanted to say how much I was blessed by a beautiful, kind soul at Ottawa and Walker today. My Mum had just finished her appointment with a specialist and when we went to leave the building, we saw that it was pouring rain. We decided to wait until the rain died down a bit before going down the long ramp outside of the Ottawa Market. My Mum is 86, has Alzheimer's and is in a wheelchair. A woman came in the door and saw that we were waiting because of the rain. She immediately offered her umbrella and then told us to take it and keep it because she had many umbrellas at home. She told me to make sure that my Mum didn't get wet. I was so grateful for her kindness and her generosity. I gave her a great big hug and she gave me one back. It was like we had always know each other! I was so impressed that this woman to noticed our needs and immediately tried to help. This woman's act of kindness made my whole day much brighter. What a blessing from God she was!

I was waiting for the bus which was very late and it started raining, I didn't have an umbrella with me. A woman came along and offered me her umbrella to put over the child I had with me which was so kind and generous. Thank you so much you made our day!!! I will definitely pay it forward somehow.
