This morning I stepped out of my friends car at a restaurant.. took a few steps and stubbed my toe on the curb and fell flat on my face. Naturally there was 4 men standing and talking and my friend and her daughter. Knocked the breath out of me. One of the men ran right over and was asking me if I was OK. Naturally I couldn't answer him. I rolled around and finally got enuff breath to tell him I could not breathe. He was such a nice careing gentleman. So finally I sat up and he offered to help me up. Well I told him that I have 2 artificial knees and have to go over and pull myself on something. He wanted to make sure if I was hurt. Mainly was so EMBARRASSED. The WOW is this man reached down and stood me right up on my feet. I couldn't believe that. He wouldn't have been able to do that 70lbs. ago! Then when I fell on my face.. It took a WHOLE grocery cart of pumpkins to get me up off the ground. Admittedly I almost knocked him off his feet and I certainly hope he didn't rupture himself. BUT HE GOT ME UP!! I certainly was grateful to him for being so careing and helpful. Got a purple nose, a bruised check bone, and a scraped up eye brow. But mainly a bruised EGO. Alice

Isn't it nice to know that chivalry is still alive in some men. I'm soooo glad that you weren't hurt worse although I'm sure you're not feeling too well. That is a GREAT wow moment. NO one would have ever been able to lift me before either! Take care of you and feel better darlin! Pam
