I was just speaking about neighbors. My next door, Charles, is an elderly gentleman. A month ago, he fell and broke his hip. He came home yesterday, and today he decided to hobble on his walker across the rocks to get my help!! Sheesh, almost had a heart attack watching him walk over. He is one stubborn and determined man!
He thought he lost his phone, but the meds he is on has him a little befuddled. I spoke to a friend of his, she's an RN and helps take care of him. We got him calmed, the phone wasn't lost, and he's ready to settle in for the night.
I left him my phone number, just in case. He probably won't call, he wants to do things on his own. But I'm here to help if he needs me!
Being neighborly is the right thing to do!
