Army Man Returns and Discovers Daughter Sleeping on the Floor, Leaving Him Devastated

A military dad comes home unexpectedly from overseas duty to find his daughter sleeping on the floor while his wife and stepsons are away on a luxury vacation.

Peter couldn’t wait to get home. He’d been away for eight long months and he missed his family terribly. He was lucky to get an early discharge from his current tour, and he was coming home a whole two months early…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

He’d said nothing to his wife, Linda, or his daughter Melissa. He wanted to surprise them. He walked towards his front door with a spring in his step and a big smile on his face. He had no idea what he was about to discover.

Peter opened the door and called out: “Linda, Melissa? Where are you? Jay and Kyle! I’m home!”

But his wife and his stepsons didn’t answer. The house was empty! It was a Saturday morning and they should all be home… “Melissa?” Peter called out one last time.

Our first priority should be our children, not our personal happiness.

“Daddy!” cried a faint voice. “I’m here, in the kitchen!”

Peter ran to the kitchen door and was surprised to see that it was locked. He turned the key and opened the door. Melissa was standing there with tears in her eyes. “Daddy,” she sobbed. “I’ve missed you so much!”

Peter hugged his daughter tightly, then over her shoulder he saw a mattress! “Melissa!” he gasped. “Were you sleeping here? WHY? Where are Linda and the boys?”

Melissa looked frightened. “Please, daddy,” she said. “Please, it’s alright…”

“Tell me!” Peter said in a stern voice. “Were you locked up and sleeping in this kitchen?”

Melissa started sobbing. “I can’t tell you!” she cried. “Don’t you see, daddy? You’ll go away again and I’ll be all alone with THEM again!”

Peter put his arms around his daughter. “I promise you, Melissa, you have nothing to be afraid of, ever again. Now tell me what’s going on.”

“Six months ago, Linda said Jay and Kyle were too big to be sharing a bedroom,” she explained. “So she moved me out of my bedroom and Kyle moved in. I sleep in the kitchen on this mattress.”

Peter was furious! When he married Linda, he treated her two sons from a previous relationship as his own. He believed she’d done the same for his little orphaned daughter!

“Where are they now?” Peter asked. “And why were you locked in?”

“Linda took the boys to Florida for the weekend to celebrate Kyle’s birthday,” Melissa said. “So she left me some sandwiches and locked me in here because she thinks I’d steal her things…” READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

Just then, someone knocked on the kitchen door. Peter looked through the window and saw a slim, sweet-faced woman with a covered plate in her hand. “Melissa? It’s Karen…” she said.

“Who is Karen?” Peter asked Melissa.

“She’s a new neighbor,” Melissa said. “She’s really sweet and kind. I think she suspects something because she always brings me treats.”

Peter fished out his keys and unlocked the kitchen door. “Hello,” he said to Karen. “I’m Melissa’s father.”

Karen looked embarrassed. “Hi!” she said. “I hope you won’t take it the wrong way, but I brought Melissa some hot food…”

“Of course not,” Peter said. “Thank you for your kindness to my daughter. I’ve just realized what you’ve probably known for some time — but I’m putting things right!”

“I knew Melissa was left alone…” Karen said. “She’d always say she couldn’t open the door to anyone, but I knew something was very wrong. I was going to call Social Services, but I was afraid I’d just make things worse!”

Peter assured Karen that everything would be put to rights and thanked her again for her kindness to Melissa. Then he started thinking about how he was going to solve the problem of Linda and her sons.

On Sunday afternoon, Linda and the boys arrived home to find three mattresses on the lawn, and on top of them were piled all their belongings. Linda was furious. “Melissa!” she screamed. “You brat! I’ll get you for this!”

But when the door opened, it wasn’t Melissa standing there — it was her husband, Peter, and he didn’t look the least bit friendly. “Hello Linda,” he said calmly.

“Peter!” Linda gushed. “Baby, what a wonderful surprise…”

“I think I was the one who had the biggest surprise, Linda,” Peter said. “But just so you know, Melissa is back in her bedroom. You and the boys can move those mattresses into the garage which is where you will be living from now on…”

Linda saw the flinty look in Peter’s eyes and knew the game was up. “I’ll take you for every penny you have, Peter!” she screeched.

“No, you won’t, Linda,” Peter said calmly. “I called the police and they saw how Melissa was living and the conditions I found her in. You try anything and you go to jail for child abuse.”

Linda and her sons took their things and ran, and the last Peter heard from her was when she signed the divorce papers. A few months later, he started dating Karen, and Melissa knows that very soon she’ll have a new and loving mom in her life.

We need to be careful in what we eat and not only physically, but also spiritually and psychologically. If we eat healthy food physically, we will have a proper growth and development, and our body will be supplied with good ingredients for its normal functioning.

But, we also need to be careful what we insert into our bodies. Sometimes people accidentally swallow something they shouldn’t. This was not the case with this drunk man.

Per reports, the surgeons were stunned when they needed to remove a steel cup from a man’s stomach, which they believe was initially inserted into his ‘behind…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

An unnamed man was reporting stomach pains for several days and no treatment seemed to work, despite seeing multiple doctors, according to The Post. He then saw Dr. Lal, who did an X-ray and discovered the cup inside him. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

The man was then rushed to surgery where surgeons successfully removed a cup the size of a hand from what appears to be an incision in his stomach.

According to The Post, video shows the procedure which begins with one doctor cleaning the stomach area before carefully removing the silver cup with the bottom of the object facing up. Medical staff appears to be in disbelief as the surgeon holds up the tumbler for the camera.

The man, who works as a laborer, has recovered well, according to reports. The medical professionals have hypothesized that the cup reached his stomach after being inserted up the man’s ‘behind’. Doctors said the man got extremely drunk with three strangers after returning from a grocery store, where he had gone to get vegetables. By the time he sobered up, the unknown people were not present, and doctors aren’t sure if the man shoved the cup up his rectum himself or if he was assaulted.

“As the owner of the Auburn Bruster’s, our deepest condolences go to the family of the child who tragically died Saturday. They are acquaintances of ours and have been regular customers.

They encouraged others in the community to continue praying for the Andrews family.

Sadie’s uncle, Chad Vermillion, also organized a YouCaring campaign on the family’s behalf.

“The body of Christ is powerful when we act together and if we can help alleviate their burden let’s do so,” Vermillion wrote in the fundraiser’s description. “Above all else, please pray for my dear sister Corrie and brother-in-law Tracy. The pain is insurmountable right now.”

Corrie says God used Sadie the morning that she died, to prepare the mother of six for the grief that lay ahead.

Sadie was attached to a blanket from her grandmother, that she slept with every single night. On Saturday morning though, Sadie put the blanket in a bag and told her mom that she no longer needed it, and wanted to give it away.

“Looking back, it’s as if she knew she wouldn’t need it anymore.”

One thing is certain, Sadie Grace brought more joy to this world in her three short years than many of us can fathom in our entire lifetime. She exuded the love of Jesus, and her family takes comfort in knowing that she is Home with Him now.

Praying for peace that surpasses all understanding, and healing for every single person whose life was touched by this beautiful little angel.

Instead of finding another way out, she made a terrible decision that changed everything.

On August 31, 2022, Melanie called 911 in the early hours of the morning. She told the police that an intruder had broken into their home and shot her husband while they were both asleep in bed.

Eventually, Melanie broke down and confessed. She admitted that she had shot her husband. She explained that she had been unhappy in their marriage and wanted to end it but felt she couldn’t afford a divorce. In a moment of desperation, she made the tragic choice to kill him instead.
