It's not every day you can truly be amazed by the power of people to overcome adversity and impress you. My typical day consists of me fighting back the urge to hurt random strangers based on their idiocy, but I was surprised when I learned about my giftee.

Originally, there was no mention that my giftee had picked up my info, which lead me to create a post on where my gifter had been. I had a some good discussion with some other redditors that were shafted and we commiserated on the lack of goodwill we'd come to expect from these exchanges.

Then finally, a notice that my info had been received! Hooray! Then a note?! An explanation! Finally all my fears and doubt would be expunged! The letter tells me that my giftee has recently been re-diagnosed with Leukemia and was undergoing his 2nd chemo battle with the disease. My heart sank. Here I am complaining about the exchange and my giftee is taking on his 2nd cancer treatment. It's truly when you get to know strangers that you learn that sometimes your problems aren't as big as you think and that nothing is too big to handle.

I am truly blessed for all I have and it took this exchange to really show me. I want to thank my giftee for sending me these nerf guns, as well as 1 year (!) of Reddit Gold.

Thank you so much for your generosity and I really wish you luck during your 2nd battle. I'm rooting for you and you inspired me to re-establish my listing in the bone marrow transplant database. I may not be your match, but hopefully one day I could be for someone.
