She’s Very Person-able
Children, Health & Body, New York, Retail, USA | Right | August 5, 2019
(I am four years old or so when this occurs. My family and I are at a large store that has furniture, as well as some odds and ends. I wander to a cushioned swing on display in the store. I sit down, and the following happens. Note that I am visually impaired.)
Me: *to a worker hanging up decorations* “Hi.”
Worker: *sounding happy* “Hi.”
(I sit there for a long time and get scared because I don’t know where my mom is.)
Me: “Can you help me find my mom?”
Worker: “Sure. What does she look like?”
Me: “She is a person.”
(I can’t see what people look like very well.)
Worker: *laughing* “Let’s look for her.”
(I don’t know how she did it, but she found my mom. My mom thanked her and laughed.)
