Don't let her size fool you!

Theory has it, you see a guy, built like a brick wall and assume he is either a football player or weightlifter and given the right amount of feather-ruffling, would whip your butt with one swoop! You see a small petite gal and you think....hmmm, small little thing, strong wind would probably blow her away and she wouldn't even have enough strength to secure herself to a light post.

I'm here to blow that theory right out of the water! My mama, a mere 5ft 1in tall, all of 96 pounds, petite as they come, slow moving, needs help some getting in and out of her chair and walking from point A to point B........but......when she gets riled up............oh don't even go there.
Na, we're going to go there.

This little gal, can hold onto a doorway with so much resistance when being prompted to go somewhere she does not want to go, that it takes much effort from a broad shouldered, 5ft 10in, big guy of a Grandson to pry her loose. Yes, "pry" her loose, until he gets to the next doorway.

A year ago, she needed a pacemaker replacement, not a real big deal really, they just do in, take the old one out, hook up the new one and she is good to go by days end. Oh boy, let me tell you, the medical staff at Presbyterian Hospital had no idea what little gal they had on their hands. Their first surprise was her coming out of the medication. Check the pacemaker? Uh yea right, that guy was not going to check anything and she was going to tell him about it! They had to call me in, to calm her down, just so the technician could place a monitor on the area where her pacemaker was to see if was working properly.
When they got her to her room, the nurse tells the other staff members that are helping to transition her from the gurney to the bed.........don't let her size fool you, she is a strong and fiesty one!

That's my mama! And I think there are a lot of fiesty apples that have not fallen far from that tree in our family...........hehehehe
