Help at hand

I was so thankful today that a couple of people passed by as my mother was getting out of my car, as Mum (not being very mobile at the best of times), slipped back and sort of fell backwards half on and half off of the seat, and got at an awkward angle to get herself out, even with my help. The couple responded to my call to them and came and helped me to get Mum out of the car safely.
