My Husband, the Good Samaritan

My husband, daughter and I were at Sam's Club a couple of weeks ago. We were walking around when we heard someone who was coughing a lot. My husband saw an older woman who was in a motorized cart who was the one coughing. He went over to her and asked her if she would like a drink of water. He went all the way to the other corner of the store to get a drink of water for her. While he was gone, the woman's daughter, who was standing next to her while she was coughing, left because she didn't want to wait for my husband to get back! The lady waited for him alone but was so happy that someone wanted to help her. He talked to her for a couple minutes and found out that she was 100 years old! She was very appreciative that someone would do that for her especially when her own daughter (who had to be at least 70!) wouldn't do it for her!

I am glad your husband was there for teh old woman to show her some kindness. I bet your husband made her day.

I like shopping at Sam's Club but haven't done so in months.
