Kindness Opportunity #7 - Care packages for the sick and/or hurting
January 28, 2016 RANDOM ACT OF KINDNESS #9: It's cold outside. There's a lot of flu and other icky viruses going around. Don't forget your friends and family members who are sick - especially the ones who live alone and have no one to care for them during their time of need. For this kindness, I made a basket of food containing 4 dinners of soup and spaghetti, garlic bread, cinnamon rolls, other pastries, and a small chocolate cake, and took this basket to a family member who was very ill, along with a special note. If she's reading this now, I hope she knows how much I love and appreciate her. April 14, 2016 RANDOM ACT OF KINDNESS #20: If you follow this blog, you've read about my friend Beth who is battling cancer. Today, she had her second round of chemo. Since yellow is the official color of sarcoma awareness, I made a little "happy" to give her. It includes peppermint tea (to help with nausea), a yellow mug with a little sunflower to brighten her day, and some thank you notes (because she has mentioned wanting to send thank you notes to everyone who has been so kind during this trial). It doesn't take much to let someone know you're thinking of them. Sometimes the smallest gestures mean the most.
