» The nicest thing someone's ever done for me

Sappy Story about my Savior Sister
When I graduated college I couldn't find any work with my degree in English Literature(shocking). I was unemployeed with my girlfriend paying the rent for about nine months. About a month after my dad died (mom died while I was in high school), our aparment burned down because a neighbor left their fireplace unwatched. We had no insurance, so we lost everything, she moved in with her parents and I had nowhere to go.

My sister living two thousand miles away (one of ten siblings I might add) was the only person who would take me in. It was a huge risk for her, I was totally broke, hadn't worked in months. I had nothing, and still she bought me a plane ticket and gave me a bed.

After she took me in everything turned around. Now I have an awesome job, a nicer apartment, and was able to bring my girlfriend out here to support her for a little while.

I love my sister very much, I owe her everything and she has never asked for anything in return.
