Please help an elderly couple!

Some of you probably saw this on FB, but I thought I would repost it there in case anyone could help out who isn't my FB friend. 

My mom runs a daycare for adults with dementia or mental retardation (basically anything that means they can't be left alone) and one of the elderly men who goes there and his wife lost everything in a house fire last week.  I don't think they have children, and I gather don't have a lot of other family either.  The Salvation Army helped them get clothes and a full sized bed, but they are trying to replenish all of the other things you need in a house (bedding, kitchen stuff, furniture, towels, etc.).  If anyone has any of this kind of stuff that they aren't using, please let me know and we can figure out some way for me or my mom to get the stuff from you.

 Thanks!

  • I will look around my house and cabinets when I get home! Do they need a computer chair? Kind of random, but I know I have one we don't need in our garage.
  • Oh no! I will definitely help, I will definitely give to you once I see you. This is so sad.

  • Thanks, ladies!  Tavia, I will find out about the computer chair.

     Also, I have to AW for Boymom - she just came by my house and dropped off a very generous amount of new stuff for the couple!  My mom said it was going to make the wife's day.  I so, so appreciate how wonderfully giving our OK Nesties are!
