Nothing that a bit of chocolate can’t help.

chocolate can help

A beautiful story of the kindness of strangers, and the power of chocolate, from an anonymous person today.

“I once had to get the emergency contraceptive pill and was having trouble ringing my GP to get it sent to my local pharmacy. I was in my car in a car park, crying hysterically in panic – worried that I wouldn’t get it in time and of all the consequences that might follow.

A woman who had parked next to me had been into the Tesco nearby and came back, knocked on my window and gave me a Twirl bar and said “Nothing that a bit of chocolate can’t help.”

I realise she might have been in a rush, had jobs to do that day and so couldn’t do anything more but I will never forget that kind gesture in a moment of panic.”
