There are certain sayings that we are raised to abide by. These proverbs are meant to give us pause;
.....
, some sayings are just plain obnoxious.
1. Be careful of what you ask for, you just might get it.
2. Be thankful for what you have because there is always someone who doesn't have...and they might be less fortunate than you.
3. Be thankful for your health, because there is someone in worse condition than you....
OK...so. I'm a little miffed right now.
The last time I wrote on this same subject as a home-less person, the same exact thing happened.
An elderly man, who happens to be a double amputee, either had a stroke or he's severely incontinent and unable to provide self care, lost his bowels in a parking lot.
After he was taken by ambulance, to receive medical attention, his chair was left behind.
As the EMT's were preparing to take him by ambulance, I walked by him, he had an uncomfortable smile on his face. Kinda like Ha! I got you!!! and why Lord???
The "chair in the parking lot", holds many a story for major cities through out the US.
Word on the street is, that this man may be able to be placed some where. If he is, is he going to be able to stay? I hope so....
Sincerely,
Annoyed
