«Excuse me, I need help. I have to go to bed but I can’t do it alone, my health problems don’t allow me to. Can you do something for me?”
The first unexpected help comes from reassuring voice of the operator who answered and who, on the phone, tells her to stay calm and not move because in a few minutes a crew from the section will arrive at her house mobile radio of the Terni company.
The arrival of the military is decisive in helping the couple regain some serenity.
They open the door to their angels. The police spend time talking to the two elderly people because their first objective is to keep them calm.
After having conversed with them for a while, the carabinieri of the mobile radio made themselves available and they help the woman get into bed.
The initial worries of the old woman and her husband, who was unable to help her, vanish and turn into sincere thanks for those kind soldiers who helped the couple in a moment of great difficulty.
«We were happy and honored to have been able to help this couple in difficulty – said the crew chief of the mobile radio to the provincial commander, Colonel Antonio De Rosa. If we really have to choose, it’s exactly these the interventions we prefer to do rather than others”.
