Read moreI was at the mall yesterday and the security guard, female, blonde hair had the opportunity to kick me out. She came up to me and asked where my mask was. I don’t wear one for medical issues, I have seizures if I strain to hard. She asked for an medical exemption and I said I don’t have one. Because I’m on a 7 year wait list for a dr and can barely get my anti seizure meds right now because of Covid. Instead of being like Costco, Canadian tire, marks work wearhouse who all kicked me out of their stores, she said I think we can let this go. I thanked her then, and I thank her now.

I have had MULTIPLE TERRIBLE experiences at the Southside Walmart but today was actually a good one; thanks to 2 very different ladies that had no idea that by their kindness they were in fact...
