On Saturday and Sunday evenings I help an older lady. As I said before Mrs. H has been around a long time. She is what I'd call "old school". Her and I see eye to eye on a lot of subjects. Some days I feel overpaid, as I enjoy her company.
She lives in an apartment building that is for seniors and has a locked door for security.
This evening I stayed later than usual, no one had got her mail so I walked down the hall to get it. Most of the residents have their TV's blaring so when I heard a faint "Help me" I thought it was just a TV...then I realized it was a human. A lady had been taking her little very over weight small & grunting dog out to go potty and she had some how fallen down. Poor thing was on her knees, her cane that had four legs was holding the dog leash about 5 feet away from her inside the building. She was hanging on to the door jam outside for dear life. She was cold and scared. I kept my wits about me, got her cane, put my foot on it to steady it and let her pull herself up.
She was fine, and grateful. I was glad I stayed late as most of the residents are elderly and I doubt would have been able to help her up.
She thanked the Lord for me, and I said no need...I owe God....He and I are no where near even..

Thank God you were there. Who knows how long she would have been like that if you weren't. Funny how things just happen like that.
