Send some cards to sick kids! Children's National Medical Center I've sent 10! I put jokes in most of them! |
Not really a good deed. But Starbucks messed up my drink and I got to keep both. Gave one to a homeless guy. |
My co-worker at bestbuy was helping a gentleman out with a crazy bose sound system, my co-worker in the midst of the sale said that he could never afford such a thing, so the gentleman said I'll take 2 paid for it. As he carried out the system to the gentlemans car the gentleman took one system placed it in his trunk and closed the trunk handed my coworker the receipt and said heres yours... totally caught off guard and left. no joke. |
went to shoppers to buy smokes after my grave shift, saw typical richmonite struggling to park her little civic. instead of saying "fucking richmond" or get choked like i usually would, i waited another 3 minutes for her to park got out and spent a few seconds giving her pointers. thanked me and smiled so hard, made my day |
Not a random act really but here's what a bunch of us are doing this Wed. I have a friend that was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last Aug and most recently he found out it has spread to his liver and his health is going down really fast. He last wish he has is going to his favorite camping spot for one last time but the issue is his health is so poor he wouldn’t be able to handle the couple hour drive on the logging road. A bunch of us pitched in money to rent him a helicopter this Wed and his wife is going to take him to an appointment and surprise him so he will get his last wish. Over 50 of us will be waiting for him at his favorite camping spot so when he flys in he will see all of us standing there waiting for him. Going to be so fucken sad but I can’t wait to see the look on his face that his dying wish was fulfilled. |
I wish you guys good weather for that day. Pancreatic cancer is one of the worst types of cancer. He has good friends............ |
Best part is we all met on the internet and have been friends for almost 10yrs now!! |
I'm picking up something for bcrdukes because he's elderly. Jk On a serious note. Personally I'm really against donating money to the homeless straight But I was at ceilis the other night and this man approached me asking if I could buy him small food He also said he was allergic to gluten. So is my best friend So I bought him gluten free food. Posted via RS Mobile |
i work at yvr, i see elderly people pushing heavy big luggages, if i do i go over help em push or whatever they need help with and walk them to their check in or wherever they need to go,where other ppl will eventually give them an assistance. =D |

A few nights ago when it was raining HARD, there was a couple standing in the rain without an umbrella at a bus stop. I pulled over and gave them my umbrella that I keep in my car. The guy accepted it and said thanks. That's the second umbrella I've given away to strangers, lol. But I remember how shitty it was when I had to take the bus and it started raining out of nowhere. On another note, came across this video. High school basketball player passes ball to mentally challenged player on the other team |

But here's how it actually went down... |
I was leaving the office and headed down to the parkade. I'm in my car, about to leave and then I see this tow truck plowing down the parkade entrance. I didn't think much of it but then my dad (who was driving infront of me) suddenly stopped and I turn my head to see what he was looking at..and I see the towing guy about to tow my friend's car!! SO I bust out of my car screaming for the guy to stop and ask him what's up as I saw another car with a ticket. Then he says he was called to tow her car away (I guess she had an unpaid parking ticket from Impark) so I told him to hold on and I'd get her right away. Anyways, long story short, I ran up back to my office, told her what was going on and then we went downstais while my dad was basically blocking the tow guy from leaving. LOL (my dad!) My friend ended up paying the guy...$40? to have him stop from towing her. I mean..it sucks she had to lose $40 but at least it was better than $100+. |
I'm a bellman at a local hotel and on Thursday night i was standing by the entrance greeting guests when i noticed a guy with MS struggling to walk with his walker and he had a couple of bags. He wasn't a hotel guest or a customer to the hotel he was just meeting a friend. So i went up to him and got his bags immediately without him asking and held his hand and walked him all the way downstairs to his car. When we reached his car i said have a great evening sir and he said "i don't have cash to tip you, but as soon as i get home im emailing your manager". Havent heard of a email yet but he was really thankful and i felt really good doing it especially because my uncle has MS. Most bellman wont help non-guests because theirs no money in it and it really doesnt matter and it takes up your time. The biggest surprise for me was that he was able to drive a big truck with his condition. |
Hey, murd0c, looks like an awesome day for camping! Couldn't have asked for better weather under the circumstances, yes? (At least sunny where I am at the moment) We don't know your friend, but wish him well. Any friend of yours is a friend of ours. RS sunshine committee........... Quote:

I wanted to thank everyone for the nice kind words. I'm beyond amazed how the weather turned out with the sun and blue sky. He was able to stay for longer then originally projected and was feeling good and able to walk around the whole time. It's hard for me to express in words how much the moment when he gave me a hug meant especially being in the outdoors and not at a hospital or being in a bed. I don't remember the last time I have been this emotionally drained from anything but it's a great moment I will never forget for the rest of my life and brings tears to my eyes just typing this out. His sister posted this response to what we did for him and it just gives me chills down my spine Quote:
http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/4043/imagerxeb.jpg and this is the reason why this is his favorite camping spot http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/2222/imagewnv.jpg Here is the blog his sister has been writing since they found out. It's very sad but a great way to keep track of his progress. http://www.simplesite.com/peters-sissy/114452685 Even more sad I found out on Wed that the Cancer moved from his Liver to his brain and they had to stop Chemo and was given two weeks to live 11 days ago. Hearing that made Wed that more meaningful and as well hopefully gives him more strength to fight it a bit longer. |
^Well I think that pretty much puts an end to this thread - don't think anyone will ever top that. :tears: |
Kindness doesn't need to be measured. ...but if it was, murd0c and friends would win. :lol |
