there are still good people

we made the trip yesterday to Salt Lake to see the doctors at the Shriners Hospital. It was the six week check for our son after his back surgery last December. These people are wonderful. With no expectation of anything but the feeling of doing good things for children and their families, they treat and take care of children from all over the world. And it isn't just the Shriners who do this; it's also the many people who support the Shrine organization. Schools hold benefits to collect toys and blankets to give to the children in the hospital. The local National Guard does the same thing. There are so many people who want to help those who help the children it brings even someone as hard hearted as I to tears.

Here's how you can help them too. Of course money always helps but in these hard times anything will do. If your kids have outgrown their stuffed animals or toys, box them up and send them to the nearest hospital and it doesn't have to be a Shrine hospital, it can be any children's hospital. As long as they take care of kids, they need all they can get.
