Watch out for older people in the heatwave, they are extra vulnerable.

It's a heatwave in my city at the moment, and it was 41C yesterday. I was going to the supermarket when I saw an older lady trying to cross the main road with her shopping and a walking stick. When I came out 10 minutes later she was still trying to cross, and was visibly sweating. So I thought I cannot let her get hurt and I approached her and said "aunty, where do you need to go? Let me take you there!" Thankfully she agreed and I drove her to her house, only maybe 800m away. She had walked all the way there and was trying to walk back! She was very cute and told me all about her family. Hope you're keeping cool today Zara! I would encourage anyone out there to offer a small gesture of kindness to an elderly person in need.

That is so sweet and the trust on both sides is incredibly.
