I want to share a funny story about my Dad. First a little background. As some of you may know, he had a stoke earlier this year. The stroke left him with limited speech, and a paralyzed right arm. He can walk for limited distances with a quad cane. To help with the mental image, Dad is bald and Mom is a little white haired lady. Now the story. Mom decided that it would be a good idea to see if he could walk behind a shopping cart and took him to Walmart. Dad spots an electric shopping cart and hops on it before my Mom can stop him. He has never operated one but that does not stop him. He lays his cane across his lap and floors it. My mom is running behind him yelling for him to slow down. He has limited control and is weaving from side to side knocking stuff off the shelves with his cane. People are running for their lives. He terrorizes half the store before Mom finally catches up and gets him under control and puts his cane in the cart. They finish up their shopping and on the way home Dad has a good belly laugh about his exploits. I hope that they do not have an APB out for him.
