Below is Sam’s initial post in the App.Nextdoor- Spring Valley, Ca. "Need Help Cleaning Your Yard At No Charge?" "This time of the year is hard on everyone, and I want to give back to my community by helping to clean your yard. If you’re someone who is most vulnerable to Covid and need help fixing stuff around the house, I will help at no charge. Just an FYI I also live in Spring Valley, and am willing to do this on my days off from work on Wed and Thur. Thanks in advance and God bless. Link to Sam’s posting on NEXTDOOR: Need help cleaning yard at no charge Nextdoor Hundreds of members and I of our communities have seen, commented, and are working to help Sam pay it forward. In helping the very disadvantage and disabled that cannot help themselves. Sam badly needs a Truck and supplies to help him transport and buy the right tools and equipment needed to work on all these yards.

"I had to teach myself about myself"

On April 6th my beautiful twin sister Joanna was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia cancer. As devastating the news was, my sister had to start her tr...eatments straight away but because of lockdown, she had to do it all alone in hospital without her family there to hold her hand and wipe her tears when she needed it. The only contact we had with her was through video calls and messages. It was a hard time for my family and I but especially for my sister. But through it all, she was brave and so strong and she knew God and Grandpa was there with her every step of the way. She had the support of our entire family too who prayed for her day and night, especially our Nana Tinei Fia Lee-lo. Today she decided to show just how brave and strong she was by shaving her head so treatments could be easier. I couldn’t let her go through with it alone so I decided we’ll do it together just like everything else we’ve done together in this life. I love you so much my beautiful sister. You are a fighter and we’ll fight this battle together See more
