He listened to a radio show and heard a woman randomly ask if anyone might want to go help her find a kidney. She was dying-a single mom-had three kids. He called the station and asked for a way to contact her. 6 months late they were both recovering from a successful transplant. That is a perfect selfless act. <br /><br />Christina, there is still plenty of life left, lol. <br /><br />Gena, this brought tears to my eyes. I remember standing up to my dad on occassion. You are a hero. And, I'm sure it didn't always feel that way, but you are. The world needs more women like you. <br /><br />Sophia, your response tells me that you have. If you don't know it was selfless, it probably was. Thanks for stopping in! <br /><br />You've all been great today! Thanks for having me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10006081099678973361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7926345421909415577.post-51465593852013878692011-12-22T19:28:57.167-05:002011-12-22T19:28:57.167-05:00I do not thin I have performed an entirely selfles...I do not thin I have performed an entirely selfless act though there have been a few times that other people thought I did.<br /><br />Interesting thoughts.Sophia Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07909417504496472472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7926345421909415577.post-82139490284653647272011-12-22T19:24:26.303-05:002011-12-22T19:24:26.303-05:00I would say yes, if you consider being 16 years ol...I would say yes, if you consider being 16 years old, and standing in front of my 8 months pregnant mother holding a baseball bat to protect her from another beating from my drunken stepfather. I cannot count how many times I had to get between them and try to pull him off of her, but by this time I'd had enough and was ready to do severe damage. She finally left him after that.<br />Well, as depressing as that sounds, it certainly did make an impression on all of us children.
