Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings all around the world
To the 911 dispatch officer who, 2 and a half weeks ago, stayed with me on the phone until paramedics arrived during my frantic call when I suddenly fell very ill on the street after leaving work very late in the evening across from the Shopper's at Wyandotte and Ouellette. You potentially saved my life, as I was fighting to stay conscious, and in a desperate panic was pleading with you not to hang up as I knew that if I kept talking I likely would have. Further, when I saw them pass me by as they never saw me, you immediately radioed them to turn around. You are a true hero and I cannot thank you enough. I hope you see this, and know that I owe you a huge debt of gratitude that I hope I can repay. Also, to the paramedics and staff at Hotel Dieu Grace who attended to me, I am forever in your debt as well.
sunday I was pulling out of the Tim Horton's drive thru at Huron Line & Tecumseh when a gentleman who was sitting at one of the outdoor tables shouted over to me to have a good day. I had not looked over at him to encourage this and I believe I had a pretty grumpy look in my face ( was having a moment)
His words literally made my day.
What could have been a grumpy day was flipped in a few seconds by his kind words.
Thank you Sir.
Sunday at the Dollarama on Tecumseh Rd West by Huron Church, a woman & her daughter could not pay for their purchase because they did not have cash or debit. The young gentleman who was next in line just straight up offered to pay. Just told them to do the same for someone else when they could.
Nice to see good people
To the lady at Canadian tire on walker road. Thank you for your help in calling the ambulance for my son. Thank you trying to keep me calm. Doctor said it was a fever and he had and infection and that he most likely was having a seizure. We are home and he is back to normal.
I am sorry that your children had to see what was happening, I hope they are ok.
I just wanted to let you know that he is ok. Again Thank you for your help this afternoon, i am sorry I didn't have a chance to say it to you then
I hope that somehow you see this.
Northbound Howard Ave. at Eugenie at 4pm Sunday afternoon. Several strangers stopped their cars, blocked traffic and worked together to corral a scared wounded greyhound who bolted from a home near Grand Marais an proceded to run straight down Howard between the two northbound lanes.
By the time the animal was corralled at the underpass between Eugenie and Ypres, it had worn all of the pads off its paws from the long concrete run and was bleeding quite badly from all paws.
The animal's caretakers showed up shortly behind us. The two gentlemen in this picture (names unknown to me) managed to save the dog from near doom. And one was so gallant as to pick up the dog (who could no longer stand) and load him in to the woman's vehicle to be taken for care.
We all shook hands and kind of celebrated each others care and kindness for an animal in need.
These are special people who make me very proud of the city I live in.
One last request......... anyone reading this who knows "Henry" and his caretakers....... please please please update us on his condition and recovery.
To the lady at Freshco on Lauzon and Wyandotte. You left your dog in a parked closed car I had just pulled my phone out to call the police when I heard your car lock open as you walked across the parking lot. I said you should not leave a dog locked in a car with no windows down and you gave me a dirty look like I was the person who did something wrong. Next time you may come out and find a broken window and the police standing beside your car. It was 80 F outside. Use your head. Maybe someone should lock you in a closed car!!
Just wanted to put Dr. Parete, more specifically his socks, up here to be spotted. Recently became a patient of his, and when he asked if I had any question I regretfully bit my tongue on the only question going through my mind. "do you dress yourself?" Not only was he easy on the eyes, but his outfit was spot on right down to his socks. & So, for that I thought he deserved to be spotted. :)
This morning I took my son out for breakfast at the Back Road Cafe. I went to pay for our meal and the waiter informed me that someone has already paid for us. To that special someone I deeply thank you from the bottom of my heart for that wonderful gesture. I left in tears. I will definately pass on the wonderful act. You have been spotted :D
