Jean gave so much support to me that day. It woke me up from a bad dream and brought me back to life that day.
I hope I can tell you my story for you to understand. The way it lifted me up. One day they had a chili benefit. I have been here with my son for a long time. I heard about the chili dinner and this is something me and my son go to, so to feel close to my son I went. When I went into the room, I felt so much love in the room. I felt I could tell them my son sat up in bed, and the love they showed me told me that they understood. They helped me so much that day. No one will understand. But the way Jean helped me that day only God will know. She gave so much support to me that day. It woke me up from a bad dream and brought me back to life that day.

It doesn't stop there. Later that week one morning, I was counting my money in my room. I had just enough money to get home plus I have five dollars to eat on for two days. That same morning I overheard a family talking about not having money for gas to see their family. I prayed to God for help because I had no extra at all. But soon Jean show up with two gas cards. She told me they were for me. I asked if I could do whatever with them. She said yes. I gave them to the people that needed them. They had gas to see her husband until he passed. I just want Jean to know she is my angel. And I can't explain how she impacted my life.
