Vacaville police post a touching photo of an officer helping an elderly woman who was found wandering onto a busy street. The post triggered a compassionate community discussion on the heartbreaking realities of caring for a loved one with dementia.
Police said an alert community member had noticed the woman and went over to help her to safety.
While waiting for the woman’s relative to arrive, an officer took the opportunity to go the extra mile. These sensitive and stressful events were not lost on the Vacaville Police Department as it offered some insight, providing a compassionate look into the subjects of these all too common cases. "With tears in my eyes and losing my mother to a horrendous case of dementia thank you so much for taking care of this lady with loving kindness it’s the only thing that works when things start going this way," Cathy Gentry-hendricks wrote in the post's comments.
