疑遭妻子冷对待 老人悲惨生活曝光

如果你看到一位老人挨饿受冻,你是否会主动向前伸出援手?在疫情期间,人人自危,但也存在不少暖心事。一名网友在看见老人挨饿受冻后,主动发文求助并恳请社会福利机构或有关当局介入。

网友Clement Tan于今日(29日)凌晨发文,述说于前日晚间遇见一名可怜老人的故事,当时正巧他下班准备买晚餐回家,偶遇这名老人。老人当时身体情况不佳,请求他为自己买一些食物,随后便问起家里的情况。

“今天生意不好,于是我决定打包晚餐回家吃饭,于8点左右便到了循环路市场和食阁中心(Circuit Road Market & Food Centre)买晚餐,将车子停在前方。在我泊好车子后,发现一名老人步履蹒跚,扶着旁边停靠的车子走路。他略显呼吸困难,因此我便朝他走去,再将他扶到座位上休息。”

老人透露,他很饿想吃东西,于是网友便应了他的需求,向他买了虾面,随后便问起住址,才发现他竟然住在加基武吉(Kaki Bukit)一带。“要知道这段路程可能相差30至40分钟左右。”

“老人告诉我他很饿想吃东西,于是我请他坐下后便提出帮他买食物的请求。一开始被他拒绝,但在我极力劝导下,他也答应。我买了虾面给他,并以为他应该是住在循环路这一带,想要送他回家。再询问之下,我才发现,他竟然住在惹兰登那加(Jalan Tenaga)第659座组屋(位于加基武吉一带)。“

“老人有时必须从白天等到黑夜……”

于是网友也决定送他回家,过程中,网友了解老人已年过70,目前患有肾病,走起路来也会气喘吁吁。但最令人惊讶的是,在网友送他回家后,竟然无人在屋内。

老人表示一般而言,他的妻子不是在睡觉听不到,就是已经外出,因此他需要在外头等候,有时还会到凌晨才能进屋。此时,碰巧遇到邻居,邻居也证实确有此事,有时也会看见老人需要求妻子让他进门。

“当我们抵达屋内时,发现没人在屋内,他自己也没有钥匙,让我相当意外。老人告诉我要嘛妻子在空调房内睡觉听不到,要嘛已经出门,而且也没有和儿子同住。有时他必须坐在屋外等到凌晨一两点才有办法进屋…询及邻居才发现却有此事,老人有时必须从白天等到黑夜,等妻子回来或是心情好的时候,开门让他进屋,而且偶尔还会看见老人求妻子让他进屋或给他饭吃。”

当局受促尽快介入协助

邻居描述老人的情况复杂,也常在坐在门外,被迫受冻。邻居也试图帮忙,向居民委员会求助,但也无可奈何。在了解种种情况后,网友决定通报警察,并上传社交媒体,希望能够促请当局尽快介入。

“当天气寒冷或下雨天时,老人会坐在外面一直发抖,而且最近因为控制不住,会随地大小便,邻居只能出来帮忙打扫。有时候也会看见老人会坐在公共汽车站或甲板上。邻居表示已经向居民委员会求助,但似乎无济于事,于是我决定打电话报警,并将此事贴到网络上,希望当局能够尽快介入。”

帖文一出,立即引起网民的注意,截至目前已获得逾4千次的转载,2千多的赞。网民纷纷表示感谢网友的协助,也希望老人能够获得更好的帮助。也有网民提供家庭服务中心或有关组织的电话,希望能够略尽绵力。
