You know the area I've grown the most in with PN and it's pain is my passion for others. Before I had PN and someone would complain of a bad knee or back I would tell them to suck it up it will go away. Wow I'm soooo ashamed that was me.

Yesterday I held a door open for an old guy using a walker. It took him like five minutes just to get through the door. I think he was recovering from a bad stroke. I had tears in my eyes as I watched him fight with everything he had knowing if he doesn't his chances for a recovery were small. It took him a bit as he struggled but he looked at me and said "thank you sure".

The other day an old timer was trying to go to the bathroom but could get it to flow. He said in frustration come on! looking at the line for the urinel and how it was getting long. He seemed so embarresed when I just leaned forward and said to him hey don't worry about it, take your time it's going to happen to all of us some day. Then the tension slipped away and everyone laughed.
