"overheard"

I had to run into the Care Center yesterday to deliver some papers to a lady who works there. It was a little difficult, as I hadn't returned there since my Grandma passed away. I walked in and the foyer was FULL of elderly people sitting around visiting and trying to socialize. I saw a lot of things that could bring a person down.

I went to the desk and left the papers for the lady and heard someone saying something but it kind of blended in with all the noise around. Then I heard a lady hunkered over in her wheelchair say, "Some people just don't hear anything."

I realized as I walked out she may have been talking to and about me. But it just made me smile to hear that comment in the nursing home....made by a patient, not a visitor.
