I pulled over and opened the car door for him, he thanked me then settled down and looked at me and said 'honestly this is the first time l've made a run for it' bless him. His wife had got much further with a young lady who didn't realise she had dementia. She came back in a police car. We were just pleased they were safe LikeShow More Reactions · Reply · 13 · 24 January 2016 at 22:41 Manage Cynthia C. Canada Cynthia C.
