When I read the story about Mike and Kathy the first thing I thought of was that they are both truly inspirational people. This was a really good story about morals and how it feels to help someone else. I could never imagine being so selfless that I sell my home and move away to help other people. I am glad that there are people in the world like Mike and Kathy. When Lana called after her farm accident needing a ramp built for her wheelchair Kathy new she could help she just had to figure out exactly what she needed to do. Kathy didn’t waste anytime getting started on helping Lana receive the money she needed for the ramp. They kept running into problems and Kathy was beginning to think that they weren’t going to be able to get the ramp built. After Lana and her friend, Rick who was suppose to built the ramp for her, had an argument Kathy had to return to her housemates and see what they could figure out to do. Since Mike had done work in construction before they all decided that they would build the ramp themselves for Lana. That is when everything fell into place and on hot afternoon in September Lana finally got her ramp. She was so happy to have her ramp and be able to leave her house without being carried.
