Tears Of Speechless Gratitude....WOW
 

You guys, what do you say to a stranger that has made my world stand still....

My original post is below this, I must share without mentioning her name as I did not get permission to do so, but I got a private message from a member here that had read my post and asked if she could pay for my gizmo's airline ticket to travel with me for the holidays. She hoped that I would not be offended by the offer, and to be honest I was so shocked and taken by supprize I just don't know what to say here. Wow..... I have excepted her help and already secured the ticket for my baby and as I sit here balling like a child, there are some amazing people in this world, I am so grateful to this lady and hope that I can someday show that same kindness to someone else.

I just wanted to share this with you guys thank you so much for listening, I know yorkie owners understand how important this was to me, to have my baby with me on my visit home.

Cynthia & Gizmo....going home for the Holidays!:)

Embarrassed But Really Need The Help!

Hi everyone, I wonder if I can get some suggestions form you all. I hope this is not taken the wrong way or that I am not doing something not allowed, but here goes. My Gizmo is 5 yrs old and the joy in my life, my whole world revolves around him. I am from Detroit Mi. but have lived in Texas over 20 yrs now. Every year my wonderful sister sends me a ticket to come home to Michigan for Christmas as I have no family here. And every year I pack up my Gizmo and we fly out.

Well this past year has been needless to say one of the hardest financial time in my life as I cannot find a job and really struggle keeping things a-float. Don't worry this is not a complaint at all I am truly blessed and keep a smile on my face regardless of the hard times.



My problem this year is that, I do not have the money to take my baby to Michigan with me. It is really stressing me out because I must have him with me some way some how. So my question to you all is this. How would I go about trying to raise the money to fly my Gizmo to Michigan. I have simply got to find a way, other wise I will not be going, as there is no one I would leave him with and most of all I DO NOT WANT TO LEAVE HIM.

So that’s my question, I need to raise money for an airline ticket and soft side shoulder carrier for my baby.

Any ideas are welcome and thank you all for reading my long post….lol….sorry about that…lol

What a kind soul ... This story has me in tears because i know i could never leave my Izzy ... sounds like you got the best gift ever this year.

:) Lovely, when God remebers this he will smile.

What a wonderful and kind person. I could never leave my lil girl. Perhaps you can pay it forward someday in some way.

Aww, how wonderful of her to do that. I'm so happy that you and Gizmo get to go home for the holidays!!!

Oh such a wonderful happening. So happy for you. There are many, many kind souls in this world, and I love to hear of them, anoymous as they may be.

Enjoy your holidays! And someday, and in someway, I think you will want to pay this special gift back

I too an in tears here. What a wonderful and compassionate lady! God Bless her! I do believe you will share the same kindness with another in need sometime down the road, such an act of generosity is not easily forgotten. :)

Have a wonderful holiday with your family! You have received your own Christmas Miracle :thumbup:

That is so sweet! Truly, a Christmas Miracle.

How very kind of her to help you out. I always tell my children, kind acts will get you special wings in heaven. God is smiling on her now.

So happy for you and a what a special gift from your YT angel!

How lovely. My eyes welled up reading this. Happy holidays to you all!

Wow, I've obviously joined a good group here! How very nice of that member to pay for your pups flight. I'd like to say thanks to her for being so caring and generous. It brings tears to my eyes also. Enjoy your visit!

Oh my goodness, I have tears rolling down my cheeks. There are truly wonderful people/angels out there & I am SO happy you were blessed by one of them. I know you are overwhelmed with this offer of generosity & kindness. I pray for special blessings for this lovely lady that did this for you. She has to be one special person as I feel you are as well. I hope you both have the merriest of Christmas'.

Wow, what a wonderful deed! I bet you are so happy that Gizmo will be coming home with you! I hope you are able to pay it forward in some way...

What a very nice thing for this special person to do for you. YT members are amazing. There are 2 very special people on YT that sent me a huge surprise several months ago and I am reminded everyday of their kindness.

That is a wonderful story. Thanks for posting it, Cynthia. It does make me mad that the airlines take advantage of small dog (under the seat variety) owners by charging upwards of $100 each way, when our little guys weigh far less than any carry-on baggage. Its just a sad and unfair way to deal with customers. Anyway, thanks so much to whoever helped you out!

This right here is EXACTLY why I joined YT. The people here are great and know just how you feel about your baby. Not many people outside of YT know the love I have for my baby and wanting/needing to be with her so much. I hate leaving her anywhere and try to take her with me everywhere I possibly can. I'm so glad that you get to see your family and take your baby with you! This has truly touched my heart. Thank you for sharing and I hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas!

What a blessing for you and Gizmo and a sure blessing for
the giver. Awesome!!!

That is so very awesome!!!! Yes, Yt has some of the best folks around!! So glad your baby gets to go with you after all!!! Yay!!

I'm sitting here, in cold, wet England with tears running down my face - what a wonderful, kind gesture from a truly amazing human being. How fantastic - and what an angel she is. Congratulations! :) Sally + Harry x

This is the perfect example of why I love yt so much. There are some trully caring, wonderful people here. Hats off to who ever you are! God Bless. Some day remember to play it forward to someone else

What an amazing story with such loving results...I wish you the best in the new year

Good morning everyone, thank you guys so much for the replies, I beleive this post is an example of just how amazing this community is. Yorkies are a very special breed and it takes a certain kind of person to own this particular breed as they require a lot of love, care and attention, (as do all animals in my opnion) and they become part of "You". So I knew everyone here would understand the spot I was in and also understand the kind gesture of my angel. I am pretty much done balling like a child now I have switched into pure excitment as I make my checklist of things to pack for Gizmo, geez....you would think he had never traveled with me before...lol....sorry I'm just so happy here and needed to share, and I so look forward to paying it forward someday and being a blessing to someone else as I have been blessed.

Ok done rambling...off to bathe Gizzy and get him all cleaned up for the day,

Happy Holidays YT!

Cynthia & Gizzy!:yorkietal

CHRISTmas is the season for giving. Rejoice that someone chose to give you such a wonderful gift. Have a fabulous holiday and I will pray that your financial situation gets better. West Texas is really blessed with many job opportunities right now so maybe this will help.

Wow. What a great thing someone has done for you and your pup. This to brought tears to my eyes. Hope you have a great Christmas with your family. And bless the angel that made it possible

Where is the LIKE button!? Yay!
