My buddy keeps talking to her, making sure she is calm, warm enough etc. while I call 911. We manage to get a last name out of her though not sure it is her last name but I feed it to the 911 operator and by the time the Contra Costa Sheriff arrives (kudos to their quick response), they have figured out who the lady is, found a sister, and an address. And her husband who also suffers from mental challenges so a welfare check is ordered on him as well.
This lovely woman normally has an ID bracelet, cell phone, etc but had none of that tonight.
Folks, this is your reminder to be good human beings. This could have ended poorly but didn't. This could have been my mother or father. If you see a neighbor or stranger who seems "off" (and it is safe to do so!!!), engage them, say hello. Most of the time everything is fine and they might look at you funny. But sometimes...not so much.
In a world where you can be anything, be kind.
