Many people in modern America have been taught to look down their noses at Christian conservatives. I don't go to church, but some of the finest people I've ever known do, including the one described below.
Once a year, my health care insurer sends a nurse to check on its Medicare-age customers. I signed up for the "NurseCalls" program four years ago and was so impressed with the 38-year-old nurse who came to see me that I request her every year.
During her visit for 2019, I informed her that I had to stop driving because of my vision. She gave me her home phone number when she left and practically begged me to call her if I needed any help. A day or two later, I got an email from her offering to take me on errands. I'm familiar with the general area where she lives, but I didn't know exactly how far her home is from mine. I thanked her for the offer but told her I was doing okay. A week later, I got another email saying she still wanted to help me since I can no longer drive. I thanked her again, telling her I was still doing okay.
When I told a friend about this amazing nurse who kept offering to drive me places, my friend asked if I thought the nurse was hitting on me. When I finally stopped laughing, I explained that the nurse is a drop-dead gorgeous woman in her early 40s and that I'm old enough to be her grandfather, and look like it. So, no, I emphatically replied, she's not trying to hit on me. My friend and I guessed that she's merely an exceptionally kind person offering to help someone who had to stop driving.

Thanks for posting this!
From the proud father of an ER/ICU nurse who is about to enter the most challenging days of her young life.
Fellow FReepers please keep her in your prayers.
Prayers for your daughter and all caregivers. Glad I’m retired. Miss the babies (worked in NICU) but not the stress.
I have experienced much the same thing in the general populace. I’m 76 and look older. Everywhere I go in the public arena I am always asked if I need help with groceries, holding doors opened for me, etc. People go out of their way to be helpful to me and that is regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, etc.
I attribute that to PDJT. His successes spill over into the people.
Will do.
She sounds like my daughter. She’s also an RN and would do the same thing!
Those who give care and comfort to the injured, ill, and aged are always in my prayers.
These people, (your daughter included) are the true servants of our Lord, giving of themselves that others may find comfort and relief from the vicissitudes of our lives.
