Oh I'm sorry, did I just knock your cane out from underneath you?

The other day I was shopping in a local East Hampton store with a friend. I need a cane to get around and without it there's a good chance I'll fall over.

While waiting in line to check out a lady pushing a shopping cart who was on a mission to get to the bread baskets slammed into my cane. I proceeded to fall over, luckily my friend caught me.

Did she apologize? Yes

Would it have mattered if I hit the floor? No

Sincerely,

Slow down and watch what you're doing
