A son went to visit his 85 year old mother in a nursing home
to take her for a drive in the country. As they were leaving
her room he noticed that she had forgotten her cane. " Don't
forget your cane, Mom," he said.
She looked at him sternly and told him, in no uncertain
terms, that it wasn't a cane. It was a walking stick.
"What's the difference?" the son asked.
She quickly replied, " A cane speaks of disability while a
walking stick speaks of ability."
CASE CLOSED!!!
I was the son in the story. Mom died July 18, 2008 at the wonderful age of 94. What an attitude she had.
