    To be honest this business of giving money away to people who need a helping hand so badly is the most wonderful thing to watch - we all give a little to charity but can you imagine how it would feel to be able to plan a regular period of helping people like this - that would be such a blessing for any wealthy person - many of whom do very little but spend it on themselves - Bah Humbug to them - think about what YOU could do for so many in need !

    Jenni and Ryan,
    I don't know if you'll ever get to see this but I felt compelled to share my story with you. My mother had a stroke almost 20 years ago and was given a 10% chance of surviving surgery. When she came through we celebrated but it was a struggle. She was the main income for the household and she had a goldfish memory, completely lost reading comprehension, and was severely physically weakened on her left side. We were told that she would likely be disabled permanently. There's a memory loss medication called Arisept (spelling might be wrong) that helped her regain her short-term memory. She struggled through PT and did facial exercises in the mirror daily to work on the droopiness.
    It might seem pretty bleak at first but my mom is physically back to normal and fully mentally capable now (despite losing reading comprehension) and has been for the last several years. It will be a journey but when you're finally out the other side each moment of the day becomes a beautiful gift. The small annoyances won't matter as much. It might seem to take forever but I hope you both see that day soon. Never lose hope 💜
