    @Littlefatfriend I was out of it so couldn't ask ,my mum was unaware I'd hit the deck,she only knew i felt unwell, and was waiting 200yards away kerbside for my sister, my sister was away across the carpark to get the car and was in a line of traffic,I was alone.if it was a "Life lesson " its one I'd had to deal with most of my 60 years!

    As for

    " life being distracting" i guess we could all say that and pass on by.. luckily we don't. A simple "Are you ok"? Harms no one.

    Pardon me, it appeared you were sitting on the bench Doglover2.

    Clearly if you'd fallen to the floor that's very different.

    Perhaps that suggests it isn't safe for you to do that without help? That's just how I would read that situation.

    As I wrote, I suspect (and hope) other people with disabilities might have stopped to ask if you were okay. Apparently no-one did.

    Annie taught us it's a hard knocks life, and Baden Powell taught us to be prepared.

    Good luck

    @Littlefatfriend no.. i passed out twice once on floor then staggered to bench. Wasn't sat on it was prostrate on it. Out cold.bag on floor everthing all over the place from it. No im not safe alone. That's why I dont go out alone. In the words of my late grandmother "Circumstances alter cases".

    If you can prepare not to pass out "You're a better "man" than I am Gunga Din"

    Definitely stop and ask if you need help….even if you were a drunk! Humanity doesn't require sobriety and any of us, at any time, may need help. Take care. x
