Wish Upon a Hero

OK Dwellars

I know you are a generous lot. I've seen the evidence.

I heard about this website on a local news broadcast. I've just joined up.

The basic deal is that you can post or grant a wish.

I can't wait to start granting some wishes...

OK so we granted our first wish. 2 packs of diapers (off-brand - is that bad) and some food items (cheese crackers and peanut butter crackers. easy mac, some other microwaveable dinner items, ramen noodles and juice)

Total cost $36 (plus shipping)

value - priceless )

*Blinks*

I just went on there and read a couple of random wishes. One of them totally broke my heart. A woman in her 50s, estranged from her children, not knowing quite why, and looking for a little family affection. I think her wish is one of the saddest things I've ever read. She's asking for so little, such an ordinary thing.
