I start pulling her walker out of the trunk, and a lady getting into the next car says, I''LL GET THE DOOR and goes running back to the door. So. I set up the walker. Haul auntie out of the car. Go back for her bag and sweater. All this time, the lady is holding the door, which makes auntie nervous, so she breaks into her version of a walker trot. OMG!
I KNOW the woman had very good intentions, but PLEASE.......all she did was annoy me and make my aunt feel pressured and, as she put it, "like a damned burden to everyone".
Yep that's the sort of thing I got to put up with. I might look like I'm struggling but it's the only way I can do it.
