Good news?

George Pickering III (hereafter "George") suffered a massive stroke last January. Doctors diagnosed the 27-year old as "brain dead," and the hospital ordered his life support progressively shut off in a fatal procedure they call "terminal wean."


But George's dad, George II, felt in his gut that his son could make it, despite the terminal prognosis. His son just needed more time.

So the dad stormed the hospital and engaged in an armed standoff. SWAT was called in. And then...

Then, after three hours, George surprised everybody --except his dad-- by squeezing his father's hand, on command, three times.

A little less than a year later, George is healthy and doing just fine.

We are over charities. Most of the money goes to salaries. This is what we do now. Not me, exactly, but my runner hub honors a fallen hero every time he runs in a race, carries the photo of the fallen soldier on his back, sends the winning medal to the fam, gets feed back from the fam, and keeps doing it over and over. My hub is awesome! I hold down the fort while he is gone. Here is the website for any runners out there..

Your husband? The equivalent of a 2019 captain America? I'm so grateful to be alive when he exists, my life is at least 20x better because he exists.

Our Company does Toys For Tots. Christmas threw up in our lobby this morning! :lol:
We have a little competition going here, two years ago I went shopping and stuffed the box for our team.
It's one competition I like to try and fix, winning for a good cause.

Last year, the office was a dud, so i walked into Target and purchased a half dozen items, split by age and gender - I am such a traditionalist - and then handed them to the nice Marine freezing his butt off outside. Semper Fi and Merry Christmas
