Des Moines, IA, resident Ray Drake has been paralyzed since 1989 and his two sisters take care of him. After a windstorm left Ray’s property in chaos, his sisters reached out to old friends to see if they could borrow a chainsaw to clean up the yard. + To everyone's surprise, the whole Roosevelt High School football team showed up to help. In just a couple of hours, 30 teenagers cleaned up Ray’s residence. + “I’m blessed. I’m blessed,” Ray said, while his thankful sisters were in tears. — h/t: KCCI ••• @globalpositivenews @globalpositivenews @globalpositivenews . . . #caring #heartwarming #positivepsychology #globalpositivenews #news #somegoodnews #tanksgoodnews #Positivenews #positivenergy #positivity #onemillionactsofgood #kindness #kindnessmatters #randomactsofkindness #actsofkindness #disabled #disability #footballteam #yard #yardwork #paralyzed #cleaningup #highschoolfootball #highschoolstudents #derecho

      1. I am okay but got swamped with work and trying to get things done at the house, getting groceries for Winter and far behind. I have tried to catch up in Reader tonight. I can’t let that happen again. I hope you are okay as well Eliza.
