Just an FYI for everyone at the Windsor Regional Ouellette Campus, my mother's purse was stolen right out of her hospital room around 330-4 pm today!
A little background information: she's currently being treated for lung cancer, along with complications and all her chemotherapy medication, appointment times, wallet etc. were in there. Everything worth something to her has been stolen. To the scumbags who decided to pray on the sick, karma will come around and you WILL reap what you sow. Patients, families and friends keep your belongings with you at ALL times. The monetary items can be replaced but those sentimental ones can not! Beyond disappointed.

I have lost my American passport card either Sunday downtown Windsor somewhere or Monday near Devonshire mall or south Windsor. It's in a protective sleeve with a gold Starbucks card.

While driving home from an appointment today on Howard ave, I saw a family trying to cross the road to their vehicle. I stopped to let them go without thinking much of it as would hope most people would out of common courtesy. Both the (I assume) mother and young lady in a wheelchair vigorously waved and smiled at me. When they crossed , the young lady still had a huge smile on her face and continued to wave at me. It is something so simple but I smiled the whole way home. To the sweet family and young lady especially, you've been spotted. Thanks for making my day.

On monday night about 10:16 someone got into my car on dougall ave. Only about 8 dollars in change was taken but its not what was taken that has my laughing. On my passenger seat was a backpack with clothes, drugs, needles, and A COPY OF A BIRTH CERTIFICATE AND HEALTH CARD. The bag has been given to authorities and noted you are caught on security camera. Im hoping family of his will see this or people he knows and just give him a right shaming.

This posting is actually a bit of bad and good all in one. I was injured at a city park while walking my dogs and playing basketball with my son this morning. I will spare those details at this time. As I limped with my 10 year-old's assistance to a nearby corner plaza, I was hoping to use the phone in the convenience store. He ran ahead trying to be helpful in the situation asking to use their phone so he could call my mom (his grandma) for a ride. He came out of the store saying that they refused to let him make the call. I couldn't believe it so I limped in and reasked, fully explaining the situation and was met with such disdain and insensitivity from the store owners. She chastised me about coming in and asking for a favour and said my son had already come in. I think I was in shock as we had a few words about how inhumane it was that she would not allow someone clearly injured to make a local call to get assistance. I just walked out feeling so defeated. I am writing this because I think it is so sad that this actually happened in my neighbourhood. My son tried a friend's house next, others walked by without any words, then we finally ventured to another store in the plaza. This is where the story turns around in a positive way.
As I approached the Fontainebleu I.D.A. Pharmacy, I was met with compassion and kindness from the employees right inside the door. As I was physically assisted to the counter to make my call, I was offered an ice pack and a cold bottle of water. By this time, I was shedding a few tears of pain and frustration. They then arranged chairs for me to sit and lift my swollen foot up as I waited for a ride. All this time, my son waiting patiently outside with our dogs, was kept up to speed and invited to sit in the shade at the store front. I want to give a huge shout out of "THANKS!" to everyone at the Fontainebleu I.D.A. Pharmacy, especially Brenda who helped me out to my mom's car and wished me well along with giving some first-aid advice. You were all truly Good Samaritans today and have restored my faith in humanity!
Please, if you are reading this, do not be swayed in our "mind your own business" society to walk by when you sense someone is in need. Take the time to connect with your fellow neighbour and offer your assistance. You can truly make a difference in our world!

I just want to share about the great customer service I got at PetValu on Wyandotte St. East yesterday(Monday). I took my shih-Tzu Roxy there for a clean-up. Shannon was super nice and did an awesome job on Roxy. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Roxy. Also, to the sales girl that helped me in the door with my 2 grandkids and Roxy, and helping us pick out a new collar for Roxy. I will definitely be a repeat customer.
