Dad Who Lost Everything in Hurricane Harvey Breaks Down After Son Gets Woody Doll From New York Donation Truck
quote:
Michael Orta’s house in Port Arthur was destroyed during Hurricane Harvey, with his five-year-old son Maddox’s precious Woody doll found floating in stagnant waters.
quote:
“I remember seeing him floating in the water. And that was the most devastating thing. Not the fact I lost my television and my home and everything we worked for - it was that one little image….seeing that Woody hat floating upside down,” Orta said.
quote:
But when Michael took Maddox on Saturday to help others affected by the storm by unloading a truck full of goods donated from New York, they were met with a surprise: a Woody doll hanging out of a donated backpack. And along with the doll, a little handwritten note in a snaplock bag. It read: “Praying things get better for you all. Woody is very special to Xander so I hope whoever gets him gives him a loving home.”

It is sad that it often takes complete devastation to see that humanity is still out there.

First all... Xander... pick a human name... smdh...
Secondly, I heard Donny Lemon on CNN last night or the night before fully discounting how great America is in reacting to this tragedy because we "had to." That these types of things are only good when he don't "have to." Smdh...

I think this kind of story is how the Good Guy Greg meme started.
