1oo9tThis black boy had had a strenuous day at work. But when he noticed an old lady walk into the crowded bus, he quickly offered her a seat without giving it too much thought. Then she handed him a shocking note that affected his life.
As 23-year-old Jaden got to the bus stop after a day’s hard work juggling between being a machine operator and a cleaner in a production factory, he saw a bus and jumped right on it. He was lucky to spot a free seat as the buses were always crowded in the evening. He was exhausted, his whole body ached, and his toxic boss had unloaded his frustration and anger on him as usual. He had been up since 5:00 a.m. and had hardly had any time to sit down.
As he settled into his seat, no one looked or paid him any mind. Everyone was focused on their phones or their own issues. Jaden leaned back and began to think. He knew he could not keep up with such labor for long; he would only burn out. As he was deep in thought, the bus slowed down to pick up a passenger, and an old woman stepped on.
She looked so frail, and her steps were unsteady. She moved slowly from the door into the bus, and when she saw that all the seats were occupied, she rested her body on the window pane. She clearly wasn’t comfortable, but she had no choice. No one would be kind enough to give her a seat. After all, in this city, everyone looked after no one but themselves. She just wished the bus would be faster so she could get to her destination quickly. As the bus moved, she winced as her waist and knees started aching.
Jaden looked up and noticed the old woman’s struggle. He felt compassion immediately for her and called out to her, “Hello, ma’am,” he said kindly. “You can have my seat.” The old woman was shocked at first. She never believed there could be someone in this city who could be so kind and considerate. She smiled at him and limped slowly to his seat.
Jaden helped her sit down while he stood for the rest of the journey. Three minutes later, Jaden reached his bus stop and called to the driver to slow down. As he alighted from the bus, the old woman’s frail hands grabbed his jacket. He turned to her in surprise, and then he felt her fingers crawl into his pocket. She put a note into the pocket, and there was no time to inquire what the note was about as the other passengers were already pushing him. Jaden stepped off the bus, and immediately it zoomed off. It all felt surreal. Why would she put a note in his pocket? Maybe it was a thank-you note, he thoughtREAD FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>.
So, Jaden put his hand in his pocket and pulled out the note. What he saw scribbled on the note made his mouth hang open. Written on one side of the note was a street address, and the other part had five numbers written like a code. Together it read: Number 5, Queen Spark, Code 88687. This sure was confusing for Jaden. He tried to understand, but it didn’t make any sense. What was this? After thinking for some time, he folded the paper up, put it in his pocket, and headed home. He really needed his rest more than anything else.
Once home, Jaden took a quick bath and tried to rest, but try as he did, he couldn’t bring himself to sleep. He was still thinking about the old woman and the note. It was clearly an address, but could the address be a trap? Somehow, he couldn’t sleep that night. He tossed and turned, thinking about what to do. The next day, Jaden boarded the bus with the hope of seeing the old woman and asking her about the note, but there was no sign of the old woman that morning.
He hoped to see her in the evening after work, but there was still no sign of her. Jaden was disappointed, and his confusion deepened as he wondered what message she was trying to convey. He couldn’t get the note off his mind, and he spent the next two days thinking deeply about it. His curiosity reached its peak, so he made a mental note to visit the address on his day off.
His Fridays were always off, and he used them to do his laundry, but that Friday, Jaden decided to visit the address and see for himself. He just hoped he wasn’t endangering his life by walking right into a trap. He boarded the same bus where he met the old lady and headed to the address. It took 35 minutes before the bus reached the destination.
As soon as Jaden got down from the bus, he couldn’t find any house around the area. Well, he did, but it was a large, intimidating estate surrounded by gardens and trees. The entire vicinity was calm and felt so natural. Jaden looked around, studying the environment for any signs of danger. When he was satisfied that he was safe, he headed towards the large gate. He knocked at the gate, but there was no response. It made sense because there was no gate post, and the house was too far for anyone to hear him knocking and open it up.
Jaden looked at the gate and noticed the panel by the central lock. When he opened it, he saw a small monitor with a keypad. It needed a security code to be put in. Jaden wondered what it could possibly be until it hit him. The security code was the five-digit number on the note. Jaden pulled out the note and typed the code.
He was immediately granted access as the gate opened. He stepped into the large compound and saw that there was a huge mansion nestled at the end of it. He walked towards it, hoping to get to the root of the mystery. When he reached the front door, it was ajar, and he pushed it open. As he stepped into the large living room, he saw something that shocked him to his very core. There sat the very same old woman he met on the bus. She was sitting on a sofa with a bright smile on her face. From the looks of things, it was obvious that she had been expecting him. She looked quite glad that he showed up. Jaden had a lot of questions to ask her.
The woman introduced herself as Jasmine. Jaden was eager to know why the woman led him there. Firstly, Jasmine thanked Jaden for helping her on the bus. She had gone for a medical checkup that day and couldn’t get a cab, which is why she had opted to use the public bus. The old lady offered Jaden a drink, but he wasn’t interested.
He wanted to know why the woman had led him there. Jasmine cleared her throat while maintaining an air of suspense. Jaden, on the other hand, felt quite uneasy. He wished the woman would just open up. Jasmine finally took a deep breath and said the words: she needed a caretaker. She was sick, and at her age, she could barely do stuff around the house. Her health was worsening daily, so she needed someone to take care of her. At almost 70, it was difficult to navigate around such a big house. To show that she was serious, she disclosed the pay.
Jaden was shocked. The pay was six times that of his former job. That was a dream come true. All of a sudden, Jaden felt his worries fade away. He immediately accepted the job offer, and Jasmine was glad. In the past 4 years, she had employed over seven caretakers. Most of them stole from her while some grew tired of the job and left, but she knew she could trust Jaden, who had proved to be a compassionate soul. Jaden’s only request was for a few days to take care of some personal stuff before he took up work. Jasmine agreed with that and bid him farewell.
Jaden stepped out of the house with mixed feelings. He thought of his new job and the challenges that would come with it. He wondered why an old woman would choose to live in such a big house alone. At the same time, Jasmine was a cheerful and kind woman, and he was sure he would enjoy the job. Jaden showed up at the factory and submitted his resignation letter.
His boss was shocked at his decision, but when he saw Jaden’s mind was made up, he offered to double his pay. For someone who had belittled him and screamed at him for the last few years, Jaden was shocked. It turned out his boss took his anger out on him because he knew Jaden needed the job and would not quit, but he also knew that Jaden was a very hard worker who would be very hard to replace. Jaden had already made up his mind though, and he politely declined.
After 2 days, Jaden started work at Jasmine’s house. His job wasn’t tasking. All he had to do was make Jasmine breakfast and ensure she took her medication. He also readied her bathwater, did the laundry, and cleaned around the house. After working for the day, he would grab a drink and watch his favorite show on the television.
By then, Jasmine would be asleep for hours. When she woke up, they would often sit down and talk. Jasmine was a storyteller, and she entertained Jaden with tales of the past. Jaden loved to listen to her because of her profound wisdom. They would speak for hours, and then he would make dinner for her. He ensured that everything was in order before he decided he was done for the day.
Jaden grew a strong emotional attachment to Jasmine, and her home became like his second home. He began to view taking care of Jasmine not as his job, but as a responsibility. Jasmine loved scotch eggs, and he would make them every morning for her. He did everything else she needed, never complained, and was always polite and kind.

As the days passed, Jasmine became weaker. She could barely move 10 paces, and her breath quickened so much that it seemed like her heart would fail. Jaden was always there by her side to help her out. He would read newspapers to her, and they watched some operas on television. One early morning, as he stepped into the sitting room with a couple of pastries he had bought for Jasmine’s surprise, he saw something shocking. Jasmine was struggling to breathe, and it was a very scary thing to see.
In deep panic, he grabbed the phone and dialed emergency services. After 15 minutes, an ambulance arrived, and they rushed Jasmine to the hospital. She was placed on IV fluids, and the doctors recommended some drugs for her. Jaden was glad that he had come earlier that morning. What a stroke of luck. He was fidgeting as he stood by Jasmine’s side. He held her hand and prayed for her survival. Twenty minutes later, Jasmine woke up. She looked up to Jaden and smiled. She thanked him for being there for her. Jaden just claimed that he was doing his job, but he knew it was more than that.
Jasmine was discharged that evening, and they took a cab home. When they arrived, Jaden prepared scrambled eggs and served her. When she was done with her meal, he led her to her room and watched her snuggle into her thick duvet. It was late, and Jasmine bid him good night, but Jaden didn’t make plans to leave. The morning incident still traumatized him because he knew if he had come just 20 minutes later, Jasmine would have passed on, so he didn’t want to leave anything to chance any longer.
There were three spare bedrooms, and he planned to sleep in one of them. Jasmine thanked him again for everything, but she reminded him that it was late and he needed to go back home. But Jaden insisted that he would sleep over, so he bid her good night and headed to one of the bedrooms. Little did he know the consequences of this choice.
A few minutes after midnight, Jaden was awakened by a strange sound. He got up and checked on Jasmine, but the old lady was sleeping soundly. Feeling satisfied, Jaden headed back to his room, but to his surprise, he heard the sound again. This time it sounded like someone was picking a keyhole, but Jaden dismissed the thought. The fence was high enough to deter intruders, and the gate was locked with a password, meaning it wasn’t easy to break in. Jaden wasn’t worried, so he laid back on the bed and dozed off.
A few minutes later, Jaden was awakened by a sharp scream. He jumped off the bed and ran into Jasmine’s room. There he saw a truly shocking scene. There was a masked man with a gun pointed at Jasmine, demanding her money and jewelry. Jaden’s first thought was that Jasmine was too fragile to deal with this kind of trauma, and he quickly sprang into action.
As someone who had grown up doing monotonous, laborious jobs, his reflexes were sharp and precise. Jaden quickly disarmed the intruder, and the weapon fell to the ground. The intruder was extremely shocked at Jaden’s presence as he knew the old woman stayed alone. He never even saw Jaden until he kicked the weapon out of his hand. He knew he needed to beat Jaden to escape.
They engaged in a scuffle, and Jaden didn’t give the intruder any breathing space. Jaden was a better fighter, and he knocked the intruder to the floor. But the man wasn’t ready to give up. As Jasmine dialed 911, the intruder tried to make good on his escape. He pulled out a small knife, and before Jaden could react, he buried the blade into Jaden’s stomach and jumped out through the window. The pen knife was a small one, but Jaden was hurt.
He needed urgent medical care, or the issue could escalate. When the emergency services arrived, Jaden had to be taken to the hospital. Throughout his hospital stay, Jasmine sat by his bedside, displaying unwavering loyalty. If Jaden could take a knife for her, it meant he would do anything for her. The doctors bandaged his wounds and took care of him until he recovered. When he was discharged, Jasmine asked him to rest at his home for a few days before resuming work, but Jaden wouldn’t listen. He couldn’t afford to leave her by herself. What if something even worse happened to her?
Jaden resumed work and continued taking care of Jasmine. They had many conversations, and Jasmine learned about Jaden’s mother. Jaden’s father had passed away, and he had just a mom and a little sister who lived in another city. His mother had been diagnosed with leukemia and needed a bone marrow transplant. They had been saving money for it, but it wasn’t enough. When Jasmine heard this, she assured him that everything would be fine.
He was young and had a promising future, so he shouldn’t be worried. In the following month, Jasmine’s health deteriorated to the point that she wasn’t even responding to medications anymore. Jaden called the ambulance, and Jasmine was admitted to the hospital. The doctors tried all they could, but her cells kept dying. Even when the doctors saw the case as hopeless, Jaden didn’t. He was a stark believer in miracles. He couldn’t afford to lose Jasmine as they had built an unbreakable bond. He begged her to fight for her life and kept holding her hands, urging her to stay strong.
As Jasmine lay on the hospital bed, too weak to move her body, she reflected on her life with deep gratitude. Jaden was one of the best people to exist in her life in recent years. She was glad that the universe gave her this gift during her last moments. As dusk approached, she again told Jaden to go home, but he refused. Jasmine wanted him to return to his own mother, but Jaden did not budge. His mom would be fine, but he needed to keep watch over her.
Jaden stayed with her all night, listening to her voice, which by now was barely above a whisper. She kept thanking Jaden for everything until she fell silent a few hours before dawn. At that same time, the monitor stopped beeping. Jaden screamed as he didn’t want to believe what was happening. When the doctor stepped in, he begged him to resuscitate Jasmine, but the doctor merely confirmed her passing at 4:20. While her body was prepared for burial, Jaden couldn’t believe what had happened.
He fell into a bout of shock and remained still for a few moments. His benefactor had died. Worse, his friend had died. He had come to love Jasmine so much that her passing hit him like a ton of bricks. She was like the grandmother he never had. His heartbeat increased, and he almost had heart failure. Tears started flowing from his eyes as he trembled in grief. He cried so hard that his eyes were sore and his voice was lost. He returned home and couldn’t sleep. He kept wishing life wasn’t cruel. It was very hard to move on, but he had to. He spent over three days indoors, and his mom, who heard the news, came to see him to comfort her son.
A week later, Jasmine was buried in a cemetery. Jaden stared at the tombstone for the last time. “You will always be in my heart,” Jaden said softly. He returned home and made plans to find a new job. A few weeks later, he heard a knock on his door. Three men were standing outside his house, clad in expensive suits. Jaden was confused and slightly wary. One of them stepped forward and introduced himself as Jasmine’s attorney. He then said the most shocking thing that Jaden had ever heard: Jasmine had willed all her estates and business investments to Jaden.
Jaden was in deep shock and waved it off as a joke. The attorney handed a document to him, and Jaden went through the pages. As he did, his mouth hung open in shock. Jasmine was a millionaire with shares in top companies. She had single-handedly grown her business to wealth back when she was just 30 years old. She was very wealthy, and she started buying estates. She channeled all her energy into business and never got married. When she was 40, she started up a foundation for kids and also had a few charity homes on her payroll. A few weeks ago, after Jaden saved her life from the intruder, she informed her attorney to pass her wealth down to Jaden when she died.
Jaden was now a millionaire. Jaden was touched and honored to be blessed by Jasmine just because he took care of her. Well, now that Jaden was a millionaire, he could afford his mom’s surgery. Jaden truly wouldn’t have received such a massive reward if he hadn’t offered her his seat some months ago. His kindness and compassion had earned him a lifetime of riches.

17 Years Old Slept in His Friend’s House Then He Woke Up to Find Out the Shock of His Life –

Cody Dietz, a teenager from York, Pennsylvania, was your ordinary adolescent. As a 17-year-old, he enjoyed spending time with his peers and attending sleepovers on a regular basis. As it occurred, he’d been living a normal life until something happened one night that altered everything.
Cody’s mother, Bonnie, attempted to contact her son on his cell phone and inquire as to when he expected to return home, but he didn’t answer the call. When he didn’t return her call after a short period of time, she realized that something was seriously wrong. She tried calling him over and over again, but he didn’t pick up the phone. Bonnie began to feel apprehensive…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>
More information on Cody’s story can be seen in the following video. Cody’s father’s phone finally rang, but it wasn’t Cody who was on the other end of the line. Cody’s companion informed them that Cody was unable to stand and was murmuring unintelligibly at the time of the incident. While he was holding the phone up to Cody’s mouth, all his father could hear was gurgling noises on the other end of it.
Cody’s parents were aware that something was badly wrong, and an ambulance was dispatched immediately. When the paramedics arrived, they initially thought Cody had suffered a stroke. However, he was later proved incorrect. He was flown to the nearest hospital in a rescue chopper as soon as they discovered him, and it was then that their fears were confirmed.
Dr. Ray Reischwein, the hospital’s neurologist, expressed considerable concern about Cody’s condition, saying, “The timeliness of the diagnosis is critical. Many of the therapies produce the best results when they’re completed within six hours.” Cody’s delay in receiving a diagnosis was approximately 12 hours.
In severe condition, Cody was sent to an MRI scan, which revealed that he had suffered a stroke on the left side of his brain. He only had a 20% chance of surviving the situation because of the amount of time that had gone between Cody’s stroke and his arrival at the hospital. Physicians were forced to undertake a difficult surgery that included the removal of the top of his skull in order to relieve the pressure on his brain. They would also reduce Cody’s body to 33 degrees Celsius or 91 degrees Fahrenheit, which is a process that’s commonly utilized on patients having open heart surgery and brain surgery. The cooling of the body minimizes the amount of oxygen consumed by the brain, preventing brain cells from being killed.
Cody spent three weeks in an induced coma following the procedure, during which time his parents feared for his life. During Bonnie’s time spent by her son’s bedside, trying not to lose hope, she recalled that Cody displayed signs of illness a week before suffering a stroke. He’d spoken slowly and garbled his words, and she’d seen that his limbs were twitching constantly throughout the conversation. The reason for this odd behavior had now been identified.
When Cody was brought out of his coma by physicians, the magnitude of the damage caused by the stroke was immediately apparent. The right side of his body was paralyzed, and he was unable to speak or write anymore. Doctors informed the family that their son’s rehabilitation would take a long time, and that they could not expect him to make a full recovery.
After a few weeks, Cody astonished everyone by regaining his ability to talk, and after two years of hard rehabilitation, he was back to his previous level of fitness. Following his horrific experience, Cody’s dedicated himself to educating other teenagers and their parents about the symptoms that can indicate the onset of a forthcoming stroke. “I wish I’d gone to the doctor sooner, but who knows what could have happened,” Cody said.
It’s also his mother, Bonnie, who’s been working tirelessly to raise awareness about the hazards and symptoms to watch out for. These include a feeling of faintness, facial paralysis, slurred speech, and eyesight issues. “My suggestion to parents is to not overlook any signals that their child may be experiencing,” Bonnie cautioned. “The most significant issue with strokes is that they’re extremely difficult for people to notice. It’s common for people to believe that strokes only occur in older people and to disregard the symptoms when they manifest themselves in younger adults and youngsters.”
The unfortunate irony of this is that doctors have actually detected a rise in the number of stroke cases among teenagers and children, and they believe this is due to an increase in the number of people living unhealthy lives. The fact is that many teenagers smoke, drink, and do drugs in the mistaken belief that they’re immortal. Unfortunately, many of them learn the hard way that they’re not, in fact, immortal.
Hopefully, by raising awareness among youth and their parents about the dangers of stroke and learning to recognize the signs and symptoms, strokes can be avoided or, at the very least, dealt with before it’s too late. The onset of a stroke can occur at any stage.
When Cody Dietz failed to awaken the morning after a party, his pals assumed he was suffering from a hangover and allowed him to sleep. They had no idea that their 17-year-old friend had suffered a stroke that may have resulted in his death, but it happened. The father of his friend contacted me and said, “Your son is stumbling around. Can I call 9-1-1?” Cody’s mother, Bonnie Dietz, recalled the events of July 30th, 2008, when Cody was killed. She explained that the boys had been drinking at another location the night before and had gone to his friend’s house thereafter.
A CAT scan performed at York Hospital’s emergency department revealed that her son had suffered a major left brain stroke. He was airlifted to Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center by Life Lion helicopter, whereas neurologist Dr. Ray Reichwein had no time to waste in making critical decisions on his behalf. “The diagnosis must be made within a specific time frame. Many of the treatments are most effective when administered within six hours. Cody’s delay in diagnosis was close to 12 hours,” said Reichwein, who was unable to administer some of the conventional treatments due to the delay in diagnosis.

Cody’s friend’s lack of knowledge is not uncommon. Most adults, let alone teenagers, are unaware that a teenager can suffer a stroke, according to medical professionals. According to the National Center for Health Statistics, stroke is one of the top 10 causes of mortality among children, and the number of children who die from it is increasing.
Reichwein, head of Hershey’s Stroke Program, said that over the past several years, the usual risk factors—things like obesity, hypertension, high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, smoking, and a more sedentary lifestyle—have become more prevalent in children. Those risk factors are associated with a considerable increase in the rise of a stroke. To make matters worse, most teenagers are unaware of their risk factors, and they’re unaware that certain lifestyle choices, such as smoking, drinking alcohol, using marijuana, or taking birth control pills, can put them at even greater risk of having a stroke, according to Kathy Morrison, manager of Hershey’s Stroke Program.
“Most teenagers are unaware of their risk factors,” she said. “Because teenagers believe they’re indestructible and believe that stroke is mainly a problem for old people, adolescent stroke isn’t even on their radar screen,” according to Morrison, who’s in charge of Hershey’s School Age Stroke Awareness Program.
When Cody’s story is told to kids, they’re very taken aback, she says. “It doesn’t get much more dramatic than this for him.” Cody was suffering from severe brain swelling, and there was nowhere for it to go. In the absence of further intervention, his type of stroke carries an 80% mortality risk, and his was likely close to 100%, said Reichwein, who removed part of Cody’s skull and extended the lining over the surface of the brain to reduce swelling.
Cody was next subjected to therapeutic hypothermia, in which his body was cooled to 33 degrees in order to aid in the survival of injured brain cells and the reduction of edema. After several days, the swelling had subsided to a minor degree. In spite of this, his mother stated, “We weren’t sure whether he would make it for another three weeks. We had a large number of people praying for him. His presence here, I believe, is solely due to the grace of God.”
In the wake of the stroke on his left brain side, Reichwein explained that his speech and understanding were impaired, as was his ability to use his right side and dominant hand. “We have such a positive outcome given the extent of his brain injuries. It’s nothing short of a miracle. I’m not the only one working here. There’s another women in their 20s and 30s who were on the birth control pill are among the young stroke victims seen by Robin Petras, executive and program director at the Central Pennsylvania Aphasia Center in Danville, who says she encounters a significant number of young stroke victims. Taking contraceptives has been linked to a higher risk of stroke than other health risks, in her opinion.
“When someone is young, they don’t necessarily identify the signs of a stroke, especially if they come and go,” according to Reichwein. It’s critical that people understand that strokes may occur at any age and they’re aware of these signs and symptoms, and that they do not disregard them because “time is brain,” as the saying goes.
One of the most common symptoms is a rapid onset of weakness, usually on one side of the body, such as facial drooping or arm weakness. Other symptoms include speech or language difficulties, visual loss or double vision, and a lack of coordination, according to him. A severe headache accompanied by neck stiffness could be an indication of an aneurysm. Heart attacks and strokes are similar in that both include vascular events, but a stroke is different in that it affects the brain rather than the heart, according to Morrison. Because stroke is not painful, people may choose to wait for the symptoms to subside, but this is the worst thing they can do.
Stroke may be prevented in 80% of cases if risk factors are controlled, according to Morrison, who believes that education is extremely crucial. Cody, now 21 years old, and his mother, who live in Lower Windsor Township, York County, share their experience with new workers at the medical center and at hospital grand rounds. Their story is also featured in a movie that’s presented at school in health fair presentations across the country.
“Don’t disregard any signals your youngster may have,” Bonnie Dietz advises parents. “This could be a TIA or mini-stroke,” according to Reichwein. Ignoring a TIA for three months increases the risk of stroke by 20%, according to Reichwein. Cody had multiple variables that put him at risk for a stroke while not having obvious warning signs. A pinhole in his heart and a genetic clotting issue were all hidden from him. He also drank that day during the party. “I wish I’d seen a doctor before my stroke, but who knows?”
Cody had to relearn everything from walking and talking to eating and writing throughout his five-week hospital stay and three-week rehabilitation stay. He still has three weekly sessions of PT, OT, vision, and aqua. Cody struggles to express himself, frustrate him every day, but he remains optimistic that he being present was a plus. His mom is always supportive.
“What has God promised you?” I constantly ask Cody. “Absolutely,” Cody said. “It’s happening.” Thanks for watching.
