5. Really Old Husband
“So this elderly woman calls 911 and it goes like this:
“Ok, ma’am what is your emergency?”
“If my husband has a stroke should I call you?”
“I’m sorry you said your husband having a stroke ma’am?”
“Oh no, he’s fine, I just want to know if I should call you when he does”
“…ma’am is he showing any signs of stroke? Unusual speech? Facial distortion? One side of his body not working?”
“No deary none of that, he’s just getting old and I want to know if that would be an emergency.” – Reddit user DanHam117
You’d expect elderly people to know when to call 911 and don’t keep the line busy. This woman should have known better and ask their healthcare provider for advice.
