A reader of this blog sent in the following story. She and her sister live in central Dublin.
It is a lovely tale of the kindness of people and how such kindness is appreciated. It is also a comment on our police service.
"I was helping my sister get out of her wheelchair before lifting the wheelchair up a flight of stairs where we live.
Just as I was about to lift the wheelchair, a car pulls up and a man asks me if he can help.
I hesitated for a moment and then he said he and his colleague were gardaí, so I agreed to their offer of help.
He parked his car and one of them carried the chair up the stairs and the other man linked my sister up the stairs.
I was flabbergasted with their kindness"
