Offers (5)

  Neta, I have been waiting to make this offer as it is my 100th wish granted....I wanted this offer to be as rememberable as Josh is. As I have told you, Josh is a very special young man and is in my heart now and forever.
  As you know I purchased a stove for Josh and we are currently working on rehabing the trailer.
  I will be back on the 19th of Sept. to help finish up the loose ends.

  I have some pots and pans, drinking glasses (glass), and silverware that I am no longer needing. This are in used condition but still have alot of life in them. Please let me know if he can use these items. God Bless you for helping this young man out.

  I've a sturdy but not really pretty arm chair that is quite comfortable. I'd be glad for him to have it and anything else I might be able to find that he can use. I'll try to co-ordinate with others who partially grant so that we can get it there.

  I have some towels I can give to him so when his home is up and running he will have a few things that he can call his own. The only problem I have is that I can't get them to you. If you know anybody in Oklahoma City who can pick them up and bring them to you. Please PM and let me know. Sandy

  Call the local Carpenters and Plumbers Union Halls. They often have people willing to donate labor to help on projects like this.

  I would like to update everyone on this wish. the wisher (cameron) has been ill and things were put on hold for a few weeks. I spoke with her today and she is starting to feel better.
  I went yesterday (Saturday) to Josh's trailer and took him items that members of the Oklahoma Chapter and members from throughout Oklahoma had donated to Josh. I took pictures of the trailer and have them posted on the Oklahoma Chapter's website http://wuahoklahomachapter.ning.com/video click on the video titled Josh.
  Well today i received bad news from Josh that the Bathroom of this trailer caught on FIRE due to electrical problems.There was some damage done to the kitchen ceiling as well. No one was hurt but this has created more work for us to rehab this trailer so this boy can have a home.
  If anyone would like to help please contac me or the wisher as we can use all the help we can to make sure Josh has a place to call HOME.
  Thank you.

  I want to thank everyone who has offered things for Josh. I also want to thank lovinggranma13 for the stove and toliet and also for her dedication to getting this wish granted. It means so much to me for everyone to help out. Josh is also amazed that people actually do care about people they don't even know. He kept saying why is everyone helping me when they don't even know me? Thank you again!!!!

  I would like to thank lovinggrandma13 for offering to pick them up for this young man. I am also going to look around our home to find other items for this young man. Also, you are such a caring person for doing this for this young man. Sandy

  I hope the wish is granted and everything works out for this young man...You're a very kind person to extend your hand to someone in need. Bless you and best of luck!

  I posted on freecycle and craigslist in the wishers area last week and have not had any reaponse. The stove and the toilet I have taken care of and we will be picking up later this evening. This is a young man that has nothing to set up house keeping and can use anything you would like to send him.
  He will be greatful and very thankful for any help anyone would like to offer.

  PLease post on free cycle for the stove and such alot of people give that stuff away.

• lovinggrandma13 12 months ago

  cameron, the Oklahoma Chapter is so thankful that you reposted this as I know it was deleted accidently.
  As per our conversation this morning I will meet you at 6:00pm where we discussed to get the electric stove for Josh.
  I have spoke with Home Depot and I have to submit a formal letter for help with the barn tin. One of the Oklahoma members from OKC is checking tonight to see if they have any 1/2 inch pvc pipe and will let me know tomorrow. I have sent two emails out about toilets that are listed on craigslist and hopefully will hear back soon.
  I just got off the phone with GrandmaX2 from the MO Chapter and they are wanting to help and spreading the word around their Chapter and she will be in touch with me soon as well.
  I will see you at 6pm this evening.....This young man is so very lucky to have you in his life.
