How can people be so unkind? I hope he is OK.

So sorry to hear that Dontaskme, I do hope he is alright and not too bruised.

I am sad to hear that people walked round him and did nothing - that is truly appalling. This is one of the reasons that I do not like big cities - walking past homeless people lying in doorways is so callous and I always feel ashamed of myself that there is nothing I can think of to do - and people streaming past, inured to the sight.

How awful that no one helped. He’d have been fending them off around here. I hope your DS is okay.

That’s awful. I hope your DS is okay. I went down yesterday on the way back from the supermarket. DS was with me but before he could get to me, two younger chaps rushed over and picked me up, and asked if I was okay. I said nothing damaged but my dignity. One said he had also been down on the floor once that afternoon, so not to worry about dignity!

That is really a sad reflection on people. Hope he's OK, at least he did the right thing.

Blimey, dontask, that's awful! People even stop and ask me if I'm allright when I'm just sitting on the sea wall waiting for a bus!

I hope there aren't concussive repercussions from your DH's fall.

What cruel fate that your DS hurt himself after doing a good deed for someone else Dontaskme Typical!

I can’t believe that people walked round him after he fell . Some people are completely ignorant and heartless .

What goes around comes around!

Hope he’s okay now . smile

We know a lady who lives about a mile away who has a cat. Badgered my DS to go and make sure everything was ok. He walked as can't get cars out, took supplies, cleared snow from the back door to let the cat out and in then walked home. On the walk home he slipped coming down some steps and has bashed his head and back leaving him bruised and in pain. He said the wind was knocked out of him and he stayed on the ground for a short while, and although people saw him slip no-one came to help or ask if he was ok, just walked round him. No good deed goes unpunished! Be careful out there people, its icy.
