When I did winter track in 9th grade, we had practice at the other high school in my town, so I didn't know the area well. I ran six miles in the wrong direction. Tired, I knocked at some house to ask for directions. Instead, the young couple who answered drove me all the way to the school. GMH - GivesMeHope

*** Random LGMH Story ***

Today I was visiting my grandmother in the nursing home when I saw an elderly couple walking hand in hand.

I called a nurse to ask about them thinking they were just two very confused people. The nurse told me that the woman does have severe demensia but that the man is her husband.

He admitted himself so they would not be separated.

That's really cool but it potentially could have turned into one of those missing person things...

It's really an egregious experience, to be lost and found again. The allegiance you've found is exceptionally fortunate considering it was winter as well. Keep up your determination. =)
