An Amazing Story About the Kindness of People.
Great story of many kindnesses. I have met some kindnesses in my lifetime too. Love to see this side of people come out 🙂
In 2005, I was travelling in Italy with my parents. My Dad was in his early 80s, suffering from advanced Parkinson’s… but he wanted to see Italy before it was too late.
One morning in Venice, he slipped and fell, and had to be taken to the hospital by water ambulance (an adventure in itself!). A couple of hours later, my Mom called me from the hospital–they were releasing him, but couldn’t give them a ride back (it was a holiday of some sort), so I needed to take his wheelchair to him.

That was an amazing story… awesome in fact. Hopefully, Americans would still be as friendly, and willing to help someone in such a strain, and need of assistance as Italians were then.
