Hit level 39 today. Thanks for all the birthday wishes fam! Hard to believe I was 23 when I first started making YouTube videos and here we are. Forever grateful for the support over the years.
She's 91 years old and in a hospital gown. She was arrested for felony theft, and the judge couldn't believe what he was seeing.
Helen and George, 91 and 88, had been married for 65 years. Their life ran on a strict schedule, dictated by George's severe heart failure and the 12 pills a day that kept him alive.
They had always just scraped by. But last week, their supplemental insurance plan lapsed due to a missed payment they couldn't afford.
When Helen went to the pharmacy to pick up George's monthly prescriptions, the pharmacist told her the total. It wasn't their usual $50 co-pay. It was $940.
Helen went home with nothing. For three days, she watched George's health spiral. He was weak, confused, and his breathing became a wet, shallow rasp. She knew he didn't have much time.
Terrified, she went back to the pharmacy. While the pharmacist was busy, she did the unthinkable. Her hands shaking, she swept the boxes of pills from the counter into her large purse and walked.
She didn't even make it past the front sensors. The store manager stopped her. The police were called.
At the station, as they processed her for felony-level shoplifting, her blood pressure spiked so high they thought she was having a stroke. An ambulance rushed her to the hospital.
Now, it's the next morning. She was brought directly from her hospital bed for her arraignment, still in the thin blue gown, her frail wrists in chains.
"I never thought I'd see a day like this, your honor," she whispered, her voice trembling.
Judge Marcus looked at the charges, then at the tiny, terrified woman. He was visibly shaken, his face a mix of sorrow and disbelief.
"Bailiff," he said, his voice quiet but firm. "Get those chains off her."
He looked at the prosecutor. "Felony theft? For this woman?"
"Your honor," Helen cried, "He couldn't breathe... I didn't know what to do. He's all I have. I just needed his medicine."
The judge's expression hardened, but not at her. He was furious at the situation.
"This is not a criminal," he said, his voice echoing in the silent court. "This is a failure of our system."
He dismissed the charges instantly. But he wasn't done. He called an immediate recess and had his clerk call the hospital's social work department from the bench.
"I am sending Mrs. Miller back to the hospital, and she is not to be billed," he ordered. "And I want a social worker at her home *today* to get her husband the medicine he needs and get them enrolled in an emergency assistance program. We will not let this happen."

📢Webtoon Canvas creators. I wanna know do you guys write your story in arcs or do you just go straight through?
If you write in arcs, how many chapters/episodes are usually in an arc for you or does it vary 🤔🤔
#WebtoonCanvas
@ItsPajama I write my story in arcs. The amount of chapters varies how much do I need to write for the arc. 30 chapters is what I usually shoot for, more or less.
@YungChoclateBar Niggas play the same rotation of games then complain how gaming isn't fun anymore. Like no the franchises you grew up with just suck now. Move on...
