Wal Mart Samaratin's

Michael, Sophia and I left to Wal Mart and everything with Sophia was fine. Michael pushed the cart and I pushed Sophia. Halfway through our list she started arching in her stroller. We folded her stroller under the cart and I held her. Then in the self checkout line she retched super loud, turned purple, and threw up. Michael ran for something to clean it with.
I literally had people rushing to my aid. The man at the register next to me. The cashier, who was pregnant, dropped what she was doing and stood by me until I was done. Once the incident was over, I explained that Sophia just has special needs and everything is ok now. You know what she said? "I know. I can tell you've got it. But I'll be right here, just in case." Then she told me I'm doing a great job ;-) Of course I got all teary eyed in public. But I felt so grateful too.
A member of my support group posted a couple days later about people being rude in public. Gawking, acting put out when they are taking up space in public restrooms, etc. And it made me realize how lucky I am to live in such a nice State. Everywhere I go in Utah people give me kind looks, help me when they can, and rush to my aid when things get crazy. I feel confident when I go out in public. Because I know I can depend on the strangers around me, no matter what happens. How amazing is that?
