Old And Alone

This will warm your heart. Just when you've lost faith in human kindness

someone, who teaches at a Middle School in Safety Harbor, Florida

forwarded the following letter as a reminder to keep hope alive. The

letter was sent to the principal's office after the school had sponsored

a luncheon for the elderly. An old lady received a new radio at the

lunch as a door prize, and was writing to say thank you. This story is

a credit to all human kind.

Forward to anyone you know who might need a lift today!

Dear Safety Harbor Middle School,

God bless you for the beautiful radio I won at your recent senior citizens

luncheon. I am 84 years old and live at the Safety Harbor Assisted Living

Home
for the Aged and Disabled. I would rather live in my own home. But, all

my family has passed away and Social Security gives all my money except

for $30 a month to the nursing 'home'...and from that I must pay for my

own toothpaste and incidentals. I am all alone now and it's nice to know

that someone is thinking of me. God bless you for your kindness to an old

forgotten lady. My roommate is 95 and always had her own radio, but

before I received one, she would never let me listen to hers, even when she

was napping. The other day her radio fell off the night stand and broke into

a lot of pieces. It was awful and she was in tears. She asked if she could

listen to mine, and I said. "fuck you!"

Life is good.

Sincerely,

Edna Mae Rampart
