I Saved a Life

 Chic fil A is coming to Hueytown!!! We rejoiced. I told Tommy we would have to set a limit on how many times we can allow ourselves to stop by. It is right near Publix. 

I may have saved a life. A couple were walking across the parking lot in front of our car. I had Tommy roll the window down and wave him over. The man had thighs that were easily 36" in circumference. He had on shorts. 

When the couple came over, I asked him if he had lymphedema. He said he did not know. I told him I thought he did because of how large his legs down to his feet were. His wife said he would not go to a doctor. They both kept going. I yelled and asked him if he had insurance. Wife said he had health insurance. I yelled back even louder, "Get life insurance on him." Well, he came back still leaning heavily on the grocery cart.

He asked me where to go. I told him. I said many doctors just said to lose weight. He nodded. We talked a bit more about his condition and the legs I used for therapy. 

I hope he follows through. 

I had one chance and he was walking away. So, I got his attention and he listened.
