Thanks to those incredibly kind people who helped me, a cyclist, on the corner of Crescent and 128th on Saturday (April 25).<\/p>\n
There I was on my butt, after having fallen off my bike, and right away I was helped by a motorist who stopped and offered his first aid kit! Next just passing by, a very friendly doctor appeared, and he took charge and began first aid. As well, another woman ran across the street to the vet office and came back with a large bandage that the doc was able to secure my two-inch gash.<\/p>\n
I was then able to ride to a clinic, and once more lucked out, as it was a Saturday, and it not only was open but they had time for me to see the lovely doctor on call and have my wound stitched up. Unbelievable but true!<\/p>\n
We live in a very \u201cfragile \u201c state of worldly concerns, and yet the acts of random kindness by these people gives me such confidence that our world will be OK. I was truly blessed to have met them, and once more warmest hugs and a great big thank you those good people!<\/p>\n
We do live in an amazing community.<\/p>\n
