This is an extraordinary story worth reading about in the link above.


Social media can be many things, but when this happens, it is rather inspiring!

  1. I think it's good to see a positive thing about social media as these days it's becoming known as a bad tool to have because of over sharing of details most time.

    Go her for doing that for her dad. I like to see small businesses thriving. There should be more of this occurring.

  2. Yes, that’s very much the point; the power of social media is fantastic when used correctly like this. It has many pros and cons and we’ve probably all seen both sides of the coin. I was offered a job the other day from somebody who had stumbled across our humble learning space!

  3. What a lovely story and as Coop says it's nice to see a positive outcome from social media. Just a shame there are people who abuse it to their own advantage at times.

    1. I am a big fan of social media and hope that I use it responsibly. Anybody who crosses the line will more often than not be deleted, and frozen out indefinitely!

  4. This is a fantastic outcome from the help of social media. I feel social media is being ruined by certain people abusing it, because of this i know of people who just refuse to use it anymore which is areal shame.

    1. Yes, I also know a fair few people in the same position. I find that a shame as in particular, Facebook can be so enjoyable most of the time though and I would say the good far outweighs the bad!
