Stories of Kindness from Around the World

Ancient Man


--by kbv, posted Nov 30, 2015
My friend Harriet saw an old man about to go down on the sidewalk. He walks with two canes, and is 93 years old. His wife was going to get the car while he was standing there waiting for her. We found him a chair, had him sit and we waited with him until his wife pulled up. It was cold out and he didn't have a jacket. I draped mine over his shoulders. He was grateful for all of us and we were grateful we got there before he fell and could give him some comfort.
