So today there was a fire alarm while I was at the doctors … two stories up … in my wheelchair and the whole building starts evacuating down the stairwells. Tons of people, like myself, in wheelchairs or with walkers looking at those stairs like we were facing down the doors of hell itself.
People were amazing! I had to sort of use my arms as best I could and the rails and lift myself down but complete strangers were offering to carry me and others, to carry our equipment … they were super kind at how slow I had to go while they were risking the potential transmogrification into toasted marshmallows.
Absolutely destroyed my body to get down those stairs but restored my faith in my fellow persons.
