A Miracle Happened

Well it was a long and tiring 24 hours this weekend. I fought against Dracula and his dark forces from Super Castlevania 4, fought a hordes of DarkSpawn from Dragon Age Origins, fought for the Golden Fleece in The Rise of the Argonauts, and many more. While it was tiring and did feel a bit disheartening that I didn't get any more donations, I still managed to press on more and more. When it came to 8 am on Sunday, I felt successful that at least the 618 dollars would be put to good use. Although the moment I have thought of that, I passed out from lack of sleep.
But it was a few hours later when it happened.
When I woke up, my friend that stayed with me during the 24 hours put me in my bed after I passed out, a few hours later; I was informed that only with 10,000 other people across the United States, we have raised 1.1 million dollars. Was surprised by that and happy by that news. Then my phone rang and it was from the Hospital that I was sponsoring that they wanted me over as soon as possible. So one of my friend drove me because I was still in no shape to drive. We got to the hospital and there was a crowd of doctors, nurses and even some children outside. The moment I stepped outside, I was swarmed by them all. Long story short, the children and even some adult patients where moved by the stuff I have done to spread the word and raised donations that each of them started to not give up hope and try to better themselves as best they can. They even had a small party while watching me on the webcam for awhile before it got late. What really made my day yesterday was that the girl I mention before was also touch and moved that, even though I never made the 1000 dollar goal, she will go through with the surgery to get her sight back.
:) So I will be feeling good for awhile.
