oxo1947 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 If you are ever in doubt about your decision to see out the rest of your days here in Thailand, being looked after by your love one. Have a look at Panorama tonight (UK TV..BBC) a new report on what has now been named "Granny Dumping" which is reaching alarming proportions. To look after older people, especially if they are inflicted with an illness or are a dementia sufferer , is very expensive in the USA, and many other countries. As a solution why not buy them an air ticket & take them to a country that does not charge. The latest case is an elderly American dementia patient who was flown to Britain and dumped in a car park by his family It has emerged that Roger Curry was taken from his home in Los Angeles by his wife and son to the UK where he was abandoned without identification in November 2015. The 76-year-old was found at Hereford bus station in the company of two men who flagged down a passing ambulance. Mr Curry was cared for at a nursing home while police and social services were tied up for months trying find out who he was. He appeared to have been well looked after by English shoppers as he was dressed from head to toe in new clothes from Tesco. He was called Roger by staff caring for him after they heard him use the name Roger Curry. But police didn’t know whether that was his real name or not.
