To add to my story from yesterday, where I gave 50 plus a card and note of support and prayer to a supposedly sick Freeper (I guess I’ll never know if it was for real or not, and it was not anyone mentioned in this thread either)...anyway I actually SHED TEARS for this man’s story. Tears. Prayed for him. Bought a nice card, added personal note, added 50 bucks. Never heard a word from him in any way. Yet he was back posting and didn’t respond to my “glad you seem to be OK” comments later that year. I am suspicious to say the least that he was never sick and it was all a dramatic story to make money from. Until the Mesta news, I didn’t think the person I gave to was a crook, just an ungrateful jerk. Now I don’t know.
Anyway, I’ll stick to giving to worthy causes that have proven track records. I like Operation Smile (they do surgeries on kids with cleft palates), I will give to Operation Blessing when there is a natural disaster ,and I don’t mean the disaster of B.Hussein O.
: )
I gave rather generously to Mesta and still have a hard time believing she wasn’t who she said she was. And did a lot of praying for her and her little girl.
