Let me be a part of your family."
On seeing the post, Carson’s heart was broken after he was reminded of his own mother who died of cancer. However, he noticed that the post was soon filled with hate messages. Carson said to myfox8, "A lot of people started sending her hateful messages. I understand that everybody can be wary about it because there’s a lot of bad things happening in the world right now." Apparently, people accused the "grandma" of having ill-intent. However, the woman posted an update after receiving negative feedback and thanked everyone for an "extra shot of pain."
While the woman then deleted the post, Carson is still looking for the grandma and posted another ad on Craigslist that looked for "grandma needing a family." Carson said to the media portal, "I posted it, and it kind of went viral. I just want you to know that you aren’t alone.
