Smile - It's Okay


--by thecaringhandz, posted Mar 14, 2013

Hello, my help others family! I want to share my experience when I had taken my daughter to Walgreens'.

I had parked away from the other cars, a bit isolated, the parking lot was busy so it was fine.  I heard a distance voice, as it got louder I realized a woman coming near my car. I turned to see what she was saying... then realized she had just been released from the hospital as I could see that she had had an IV drip in her arm. 

She asked if I had  $2.00 to get her medicine.  I said yes of course.  She was very grateful.  She had been out here all day and no one would help her.  She said she was about to start crying.  I said it was okay and that she should just smile.
