80-Year-Old Man Falls Down Near Mustafa, Kind Electrician Buys Medication & Plasters For Him

80-Year-Old Man Suffers From Bleeding Wound After Falling Down Near Mustafa Centre

Elderly folk are more prone to falls, as their bodies gradually deteriorate with age.

It can be pretty concerning when such incidents occur. While they might seem minor at first, there’s always the chance of developing fractures and other complications.

On Sunday (21 Jun), an 80-year-old uncle apparently fell down while making his way to a toilet. Thankfully, a kind electrician happened to be around the area and came to his aid.

A netizen named Shintaro Tay took to Facebook on Tuesday (23 Jun) recounting the incident.
