Two weeks ago my baby girl was born. I lost much blood after the birth and am still quite weak as a result of that. I am so forgetful and left my toddler son's car seat at my mother's bungalow. I arranged for my friend to take my toddler son to playgroup. Then just before the time she would arrive I realized I didn't have my the car seat. I phoned my friend and amazingly she said she had a spare car seat in her garage. So my toddler son was able to go after all.
Do you have a friend that is particularly helpful?
What has he or she done when you most needed help?

Me too, I always have a friends that will help me, and in any problems that occur to me. i am glad for that. I can always seek my friends help, in whatever problems I have. I think I'm lucky even though I'm kind a person who don't have much friends, but my kind of friends will help me whenever I need their help. For that I'm grateful.

I have a lot of friends who are extremely helpful. Since I live alone now, my life evolve around my friends and I'm thankful to have found friends who are always there especially when I needed them. It is lonely to be living alone and they always make sure they spend enough time with me so I won't feel sad. Simple things but they make me feel blessed

Hi Maxine,
I´m so glad that you have good friends! It helps so much when you have problems. I am blessed to have many wonderful friends that have helped me in difficult times. I think that´s when you really discover if he or she is really your friend.
When my husband was dying I had two friends that took turns not only to keep me company but to do chores and help me out in every possible way. Another one, a nurse, took care to establish a sort of home clinic at home so he wouldn´t have to be alone at the hospital when nothing else could be done for him. Two of my doctor friends checked several times a day that everything was alright and another male friend, a busy president of a big company, worked part time for us as errand boy for anything that was needed.
So even though I am not particulary a religious person, I feel I´m surrounded by angels.
The nurse friend (Dixie) and her husband (Humbert, a doctor) were the ones that invited me to Kunayala last January. And in September 2006 we went to Mexico together as their older daughter lives there. We had tickets to go in June but I had to have a mayor surgery. They stayed to be with me, changed the tickets and would not hear of my paying them the difference.
I´m posting a picture for you at a restaurant in Mexico where Humberto treated us all for Mexico´s Independence Day.
Please take care. A big hug for you and for the little ones.
