On Valentine's Day, the old man traveled 20 kilometers to find his deceased wife and told the police: "She just got lost"

How forgetful it is to be old, but not to forget lovesickness.

Valentine's Day is coming, perhaps in the eyes of most couples, "willing to win the heart of one person, white heads are not separated" is the most romantic love confession. However, Zhang Laobo, who recently lived in his 70s in the Sitang area of Baoshan Mountain, recently suffered a cerebral infarction and developed intermittent symptoms such as amnesia and hallucinations. On the evening of February 10, the old man saw that his wife was "delayed in returning home", so he mistakenly thought that his wife was lost, so he went out alone to look for it along the way. Fortunately, after walking a full 20 kilometers, Mr. Zhang was discovered by enthusiastic people and called the police, and finally returned home safe and sound with the help of the police.

At about 19 o'clock on the same day, the Luonan Police Station of the Baoshan Branch of the Shanghai Municipal Public Security Bureau received an alarm from the masses that a lost elderly man was found near Caijia Lane in the jurisdiction. After the police arrived at the scene, they found that the old man repeatedly said that he lived in Sitang New Village, and emphasized that he was not lost, and went out just to find his lover who was lost and did not come home. In order to further verify the situation, the police took the old man back to the police station.

Policeman: "Old uncle, is there anyone in your family?" Who do you live with? ”

Uncle Zhang: "I live with my lover." ”

Policeman: "Let's look at the information, isn't your lover already dead?" ”

Uncle Zhang: "No, my lover just got lost, isn't she still here just now?" ”

Police: "Where?" ”

Uncle Zhang: "Those who are still there just now, come with you." ”

Uncle Zhang: "If I don't have a key, put it on her." ”

However, what is surprising is that when inquiring about the situation of the old man, the police looked through the household registration information materials and found that Uncle Zhang's lover had actually died two years ago and had no children under his knees. Seeing that Old Uncle Zhang's thinking was confused, the police realized that the old man may have Alzheimer's disease or similar symptoms. After verification and confirmation with the Sitang New Village Police Station, the police drove the old man to the Sitang New Village Police Station. After seeing that the old man was safe and sound, the community police of the Sitang New Village Police Station also said frankly: "Uncle Zhang has no children and no daughters, and has been with his lover for decades, because his wife missed him very much after her death, so after he was discharged from the hospital with symptoms of cerebral vascular blockage recently, his thinking was confused, thinking that his wife was still alive, but he was lost and did not come home, so he looked everywhere." In the end, Uncle Zhang returned home safely accompanied by the community police. The next day, the community police also contacted the cadres of the neighborhood committee to make an emergency contact card for them and provide corresponding services to help the elderly. At the same time, the relevant information of the elderly living alone in the jurisdiction was screened, and a contact card was made based on the information of each elderly person. In the event of a lost situation, enthusiastic people can contact the police station or neighborhood committee according to the information.
