Unwanted
Once I flew to Shanghai and an old man in a wheelchair was wheeled off my flight and there was a huge kerfuffle at the exit as no one had come to pick him up. Normally for wheelchair bound elderly people, airline employees hand over to a relative. This man had dementia and when they called his family in Australia (who put him on the plane) they said they couldn’t cope with him anymore. He had a slip of paper with the phone number of his other child in China who said they never agreed to look after him and didn’t want anything to do with him. So the airline called the police and in the end they said the old man would be taken to a homeless shelter to wait for a government sponsored nursing home.. I don’t know what happened to him but it was incredibly sad.
