Project Roman Starts Today :]

I'd just like to announce this, to both promote my project and bring awareness to simple kindness'. About two years ago my family and I moved a few towns over to a lovely house in the country. Across the street was an old house where an elderly man lived. He stayed indoors most often but would come out every now and then to let his German shepherd outside. I wandered over to his house one day to introduce myself. What was just supposed to be an introduction turned into a three hour event. I stayed there and talked with Mr. Deangalio, all the while I sat and played with his dog, who I found out was named Roman. Mr. Deangalio told me that he had two older children who hadn't come to visit him in nearly 10 years, and Roman was really his only 'family' of sorts (which I thought was cute). After meeting him and his dog, I went over there nearly twice a week, bringing treats for Roman and pies and cakes for Mr. Deangalio. That winter, Mr. Deangalio slipped on his steps and badly hurt his hip. He was hospitalized for several days and his family was notified. His family later decided that he was unfit to take care of himself and sent him off to a nursing home. Before he went into the home, he brought Roman over to my house and informed me that I was the only one he trusted to properly take care of his beloved dog. I went and visited Mr. Deangalio nearly every week at the nursing home until he passed nearly a year ago. Roman is now nearly seven years old. So in honor of both Mr. Deangalio and his beloved dog, I've started project Roman. I went ahead and bought a German Shepherd from Adranth and the little guy is currently at the top of the young dogs ranking. My goal is to get Roman and his store mate to the highest points possible. Any and all donations would be greatly appreciated :) but discounted ticket/show prices, or trades would also be amazingly helpful. I'm willing to trade any of my services for shows and tickets. Services include training, coding, layouts, graphics, voting..anything really! If you have tickets or shows please let me know. And if nothing else, go out and do something for someone else, you really never know how one small act of kindness can impact someone's life.
