Mother With Disabled Daughter Goes To Walmart! Then She Discovers Disturbing Letter On Her Windshield!

Stacy Barlow, a 43 year old mother of seven from Levittown, Pennsylvania, was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease at a relatively young age. She did her best to stay strong and as healthy as possible for her family, but some days were a struggle. Just recently she had to call her fiancé, Jeff, and have him pick her up at the store because her legs had cramped up while walking around.

Most people know Parkinson’s Disease by the outward symptoms such it causes, such as shaking and trembling, slow movements, and difficulty with balance and walking. It affects the part of the brain that controls how your body moves and while it’s more common in older people past the age of 60, it can appear at any age. While there is no cure, the symptoms can be mitigated and managed with proper medical care. Even though Stacy didn’t always have the telltale tremors, her symptoms would often suddenly appear out of nowhere.

On this particular day Stacy had gone out to Walmart where she ended up parking in a handicapped spot with her hang tag clearly displayed on the rear view mirror. At the time, she had already undergone one brain surgery operation and had another one scheduled less than a month away.

After she had parked, Stacy headed right inside to Walmart where she planned on picking up some goods that she needed and doing a little grocery shopping for her family. She had brought her seven year old daughter along with her and neither of them noticed anything out of place when they arrived.

After checking out and leaving the store the pair walked back outside to the car. That’s when they noticed a white napkin stuck in the windshield under a wiper. Stacy grabbed it and saw that it was a note. When she read it, she was shocked and surprised to see that it said, “You are not disabled PIG.” As if that wasn’t bad enough, her car had also been keyed with deep scratches down the side.

Stacy couldn’t help but wonder why anyone would do such a thing. Just because her disability wasn’t blatantly obvious and she didn’t use a wheelchair or have a cane, it didn’t mean she was any less deserving to park in the spot. To leave such a nasty note and ruin her car was beyond rude and mean, it was just evil.

Later on she showed the note to Jeff and after snapping a picture he posted it online to Facebook. When Stacy read the comments, she noticed how mean some of them were, but then the positive ones started to come in and they soon drowned out the bad. People were offering their support and she felt better to see that there was a lot of understanding and compassion out there.

Fortunately, Walmart security cameras did manage to capture the person who was responsible for damaging her car and leaving the nasty note. However, the police are still trying to identify them. Hopefully they saw the news and learned that they targeted a person who was wholly undeserving of their uncalled for actions. Just because a person does not look outwardly handicapped doesn’t mean that they are not going through some tough health issues.

It Seems Like A Regular Handicap Spot. But Watch What Happens When You Try To Park Here. Brilliant!

There is a reason that Handicapped parking exists. This fact often goes over the heads of able-bodied people. We often see people parking in disabled spots, emerging from their cars and walking without any evidence of disability.

What goes through the minds of the lazy people who opt to take the spots reserved for the handicapped? All kinds of rationalizations are used ranging from “nobody is gonna need this spot for the time I will be here” to “I’m sure they will find another spot, and I won’t take that long anyway”.

It is sad to say that this occurs over and over again, because there are rarely consequences for this transgression. The lack of enough officers to enforce the laws makes this possible. Unfortunately, many people don’t have the integrity to obey the law, if they can get away with not doing so.

The statistics for this type of transgression is particularly high in Russia, where nearly 30% of able-bodied drivers think nothing of taking a Handicapped parking spot. They just don’t seem to have a conscience with regard to this really awful behavior. In reaction to this alarming statistic in Russia, a non-profit organization called Dislife came up with an inventive solution.

You are about to watch what they did in the video below, using unbelievable cutting-edge technology, in their effort to get people to wake up and realize the harm caused by their thoughtless behavior. I was literally shocked to see what they came up with.

Let us know what you think, about this inventive way they devised to get their message across, loud and clear!

This Puzzle Has A Twist That Leaves Adults Stumped But Somehow 6 Year Old Kids Can Figure It Out!

Puzzle solving isn’t just a fun way to pass time and test how much you know, it’s also a great way to keep your brain and mind sharp. The internet is full of various riddles, teasers, and problems that are meant to stump people and get them thinking really hard. One puzzle has emerged recently that is proving very difficult for adults to solve, yet young children are answering it correctly in just a few seconds.

The puzzle first appeared in Hong Kong on a first grade admissions test. The children answering it, who were around 6 years old, were given only 20 seconds to solve it. Try it now and see if you can come up with the right answer in that amount of time, I couldn’t! Don’t be too worried if you also flunked this test question, the majority of adults who try to solve it within the time limit fail.

To get the correct answer you have to flip the puzzle over and look at if from a different angle. All of a sudden the seemingly impossible to solve puzzle becomes clear and obvious. Kids solve this much faster than adults because they tend to automatically look at things from different angles, and the younger you are the quicker you can solve it.

Often adults make things more more complicated than they have to be. They have been taught to approach puzzles and problems with a critical eye and automatically look for patterns and sequences to jump out at them. When they don’t, they usually give up or assume that the problem is unsolvable for the average person.

Personally, I took away from this a ‘life lesson.’ If adults looked at things from different angles then perhaps more would make sense to us all. Try taking the puzzle solving method and apply it to daily life’s problems. Maybe they can be figured out by looking at the situation or issue from a different perspective and life can become more simple and easy. It’s just a thought, and it may be a tad over-analytic stemming from a first grade puzzle, but I’m looking at it from a new angle.
