I just want to give a SHOUT OUT to OneGrassRoot and her great website Wishadoo!

It has helped two DU'ers over the last couple of weeks that were in horrible situations.

Thanks OneGrassRoot....and all of the rest of my family here at DU!

It is difficult to do what you do with such grace and energy. You can't expect us NOT to notice.
