help from a little angel

i was just stuck opening a door in my chair and a little girl no more than 4 years old , said "do you want me to open that door for you" whilst all adults around ignored the fact i was struggling with the door.

well it hit me for 6 i chocked up instantly :o and said yes please and she did open the door whilst her mother just watched.

i couldn't thank her mother as i could not speak from being so chocked up .


not a money saving tip or benefit tip, but .............................. :A

    There are some wonderful people about - both young and old - who would be happy to help others.

    What a lovely young girl. Her parents should be proud :)

    my 6 year old grandson also opens doors for people with buggies and wheelchairs alike.
    i am registered blind and my grandsons younger brother was left severly disabled after contracting viral encephalitis as a toddler.
    kiddies that grow up with disabled relatives, dont see any difference and just accept that some people need more help than others.

    Totally true, my grand bubs is 2 and automatically picks up what nan drops, wheelchair was an early word and he's the only one I dont mind in my chairs.

    He loves a ride on nannies knees in her powerchair or he will walk perfectly to my side holding my hand but minding my wheels, shame his mam cant keep away from my wheels when Im moving lol.
