3. There was a story in our local paper today about a woman with several kids |
|
who had moved back in with her parents while her husband was deployed overseas. She's a diabetic with an insulin pump and is struggling to make ends meet. The story was about the kids getting new winter coats from a local charity and was a general "feel good at Christmas" story. My first thought was to wonder how it was possible a married military person in a war zone could make so little money his sick wife needs to accept charity to survive. There really are 2 Americas.
