‘Jake the dog helped me feel normal again’: readers on the pandemic’s acts of kindness
A visit from a nosy labrador and the ‘fence fairies’ that appeared in one garden are just two small moments of thoughtfulness that helped readers get through their darker days My husband and I have had a difficult two years trying to have a baby. The spring lockdown put our IVF treatment on hold, and when clinics reopened we had a gruelling few months of treatment, sadly with no success. We really needed a holiday, but had to cancel our plans for Greece as we were worried about quarantining and whether we could afford it. Two of my closest friends decided that, if I couldn’t go on holiday, they would bring the holiday to me. They organised a wonderful dinner at “Santorini-on-Thames” (my friend’s flat) and cooked glorious Greek food at the “Thames taverna”, which was decorated with fairy lights and a specially made sign. It was such a special evening – they really cheered me up and I’m so grateful to them. _Alex__, marketing director, London_ Continue reading...
