One Mother Helping Another Mother Sleep

MySweet Charity - April 21, 2010 - Brandi Todd is the Morgan Mill mother who was sitting on a park bench watching her children when a man stabbed her for no apparent reason. The results? Authorities suspect the perpetrator has mental problems and medical experts fear that Brandi is paralyzed from the waist down.

Her neighbors and even strangers have rallied to help the young mother. Among those strangers is mom/wife/Sleep Experts President Christine Cook and her crew with the donation of a new Simmons Comforpedic mattress complete with an adjustable base just like a hospital bed. The family-owned company has made it a habit of stepping in to help others.

This donation plus the efforts of the Morgan Mill community probably doesn't belong on MySweetCharity because Brandi is not an official, state-recognized non-profit. It's doubtful that Sleep Experts is going to get a big old tax write off and the folks of Morgan Mill aren't going to be on Oprah, but their coming together to help a victim should be recognized and serve as an example for all.
