The nicest thing someone's ever done for meIn amongst all the tales of bitterness and poo, we occasionally get fluffy stories that bring a small tear to our internet-jaded eyes.
In celebration of this, what is the nicest thing someone's done for you? Whether you thoroughly deserved it or it came out of the blue, tell us of heartwarming, selfless acts by others.
Failing that, what nice things have you done for other people, whether they liked it or not?

It's always betterto be able to say one last goodbye.
I never got to see my grandfather before he died of leukemia. I saw him a year before, a pale shell of a man, when they thought he was in remission. It returned, and I never went to see him.
I vowed never to make that mistake again.
Then I found out my gran (his wife) had been rushed into hospital bleeding massively from the huge tumour on her liver, I jumped straight on the next plane back. Never mind I couldn't afford it, or that it was the money for my mortgage, I wanted to say goodbye. I saw her one last time, the day before she died. She seemed so at peace with everything, and was still telling (poor) jokes.
